We are now seeing request for double stud walls. It used to be just standard 2x6 construction.
For the upper middle, we are seeing things cost more than they expect. And that creates the downsizing effect.

This sounds even more high-end/expensive.
“Downsizing” and “less expensive” not one and the same.
IME nothing gets less expensive or smaller. The next generation (s) will continue to consume and grow whether it is boats or real estate. Regardless of how us “old timers” feel about this.
