Are lumber prices going up or down?
The price of lumber is climbing again. Lumber prices have had a volatile year. After steadily rising through the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021, lumber prices skyrocketed up to an all-time high in May, driven by historic levels of demand and mounting supply chain issues.
Are lumber prices falling?
In a matter of three months, lumber has gone from exorbitant to relatively affordable levels. Prior to the pandemic, the price usually ranged from $350 to $500. It's now at the lower end of that spectrum. These wholesale price cuts continue to trickle down to the retail side and, in recent weeks, they've accelerated.
