Event details

Real estate and construction professionals reviewing building plans at a commercial property development site.

Construction companies are heading into 2027 with plenty of questions:

  • Where are interest rates, inflation, and labor costs headed?
  • Which construction markets are positioned for growth, and where could activity slow?
  • What could these shifts mean for backlog, margins, hiring, and capital investment?

Join Crowe tax and economics specialists for a construction-focused economic outlook that translates the latest economic data into practical insights for the year ahead. We’ll examine the trends expected to shape 2027 and what they could mean for the decisions construction leaders are making today.

After attending this session, you should be able to:

  • Identify the economic and construction industry trends expected to shape business conditions in 2027
  • Analyze how changes in interest rates, inflation, labor, and construction demand could affect margins, backlog, and workforce decisions
  • Apply economic insights to 2027 planning decisions, including budgeting, investment, and resource allocation
