Global construction of new housing is forecast to grow 2.1% per year through 2028 to 62.0 million units. Gains will be supported by expanding urbanization in the Africa/Mideast region - boosting demand for multifamily housing in urban locations - and above average growth in the large Indian market, where the middle class is experiencing robust expansion and becoming more able to acquire new homes. In addition, growth will be supported by continuing efforts to boost the supply of social housing to reduce the population living in inadequate, informal homes. However, further growth will be restrained by a decline in new housing units in the US due to high mortgage rates and construction material costs and negligible growth in China, which in the short term will be impacted by the continued liquidity issues among large building developers.
