Description
Joining Matt and Garrett on the podcast this week is Garrett’s great friend since his junior year in high school, Chad Wold. Currently Louisiana Pacific’s General Sales Manager for the entire West Region, Chad has 14 years of experience in the construction material industry and a vast amount of knowledge about supply chain issues and what exactly is going on in new home construction these days. Today, he gives listeners a behind the scenes glimpse of the impact that the pandemic has had upon so many aspects of new home constructions. Chad begins by sharing what he is seeing in his industry these days, the causes and many effects of the pandemic, how home builders have responded to these challenges, and the rise in new home construction and material costs. With our hosts, he then explores the many factors that are involved in trying to predict the future of home building, ‘catching up the supply’, and the overall economic impact. Chad’s unique insights provide a vast amount of information that so many in the general public just do not have, and today is your opportunity to learn all about them right along with Matt and Garrett.
