    More housing matters. So does the pipeline behind it. 🏗️ 375,469 homes were under construction in June, while approved projects waiting to start construction declined. What do these trends reveal about future housing supply? cmhcschl.ca/3LLz50ZnWNw #HousingMarket
    Graphic titled "Looking Beyond Housing Starts." The graphic shows that 375,469 homes were under construction in June 2026. It also highlights that completions increased 8.4% month-over-month, while the six-month housing starts trend declined 2.8%. Supporting text explains that although housing starts eased in June, homes already under construction and rising completions provide a broader view of how housing supply is progressing.
