Home Builders, Remodelers in Atlanta Area Face Rising Tariff Costs

Home builders and remodelers in Atlanta and around the country continue to face rising building supply costs as new US tariffs on products manufactured in China take effect. The rising prices for building supplies forces builders to pass along increases to buyers. Real estate analysts worry that increasing prices will have a negative effect on the real estate market and that many home remodeling projects may be delayed until prices return to normal. A new round of tariffs will take effect next month.
