The industry grew following consistent housing starts and increased home sales. Nonetheless, the recession caused by COVID-19 halted economic production, decreasing demand for commercial real estate and construction activity. Interest rates dropped following the shutdown of the economy, which encouraged home sales and housing starts; this ultimately dampened revenue loss in 2020. Still, the Federal Reserve increased interest rates substantially in 2023 to combat inflation, which has increased the cost of mortgages and reduced demand for real estate by making financing much more expensive. So industry-wide revenue has decreased at a CAGR of 1.3% over the past five years – including an estimated 15.3% in the current year – and is expected to total $18.3 billion in 2023, while profit drops to 9.4%.Since industry performance depends on the health of the US real estate market and overall economy, which have both exhibited volatility primarily because of COVID-19, housing starts and home sales spurred by a mass exodus from densely populated areas carried the industry through the recession. A rising number of housing starts, at an annualized rate of 2.8% over the past five years, bolstered demand for conveyancing services. Although the coronavirus impeded commercial construction, significant residential construction activity has supported revenue. Low interest rates have encouraged housing demand in the residential sector.Increased inflation and rising interest rates, combined with the drop in the existing home sale market, will challenge industry growth. Housing starts will drop at an annualized rate of 7.5%, increasing the house price index as the supply lessens. These factors will restrict industry demand, hindering industry expansion. So, industry revenue is expected to drop at a CAGR of 0.5% to $17.8 billion over the five years to 2028.
Industry revenue has declined at a CAGR of 2.7 % over the past five years, to reach an estimated $18.5bn in 2024.
Market size is projected to decline over the next five years.
