Clovis Home Construction Booming West of Harlan Ranch Clovis CA 93619

I wanted to see what new construction was going in between DeWolf and Locan north of Hwy 168. It had been a while since I had been out there and I was interested in seeing the progress. I was only intending to visit two different builders/communities but as it turns out I visit four different builder/communities with new construction development. Originally I wanted to see the Wathen and Wilson community progress but before I knew it I was taking photos of the Benchmark or Century homes and as I wound my way home on Locan I was able to preview the Granville Deauville East community as well.

So I snapped a bunch of photos for you to see of the homes in this area so you could get a feel for what they look like. I didn’t tour any models or get any updated pricing this time. I simply wanted to capture what these new homes looked like from the street and get some shots of the construction. I don’t recall if the Century community has any homes left to build. That Diamondhead community may already be built out? Regardless, I got some shots of what the final products look like.

With virtually no new home construction, at least from tract homes, between 2008 – 2012 there was a large void left in terms of supply. Babies were still being made during those stagnant real estate years. As values continued to go up year after year more of the usual homebuilders ratcheted up their operations again and started to develop the land that they had been holding for years. The void of no new construction for years created somewhat of a boomerang effect to where new construction has been going full throttle for the past 4 years or so. The effects of this is what has caused this sparsely populated stretch of land between DeWolf and Local from the east and west to Shepherd and Hwy 168 from the north and south to have a whole host of new homes in a short amount of time.
