Life is full of cycles. Some are bountiful, like the lifecycle of Alaska’s salmon. They run up the river to spawn. Eggs hatch in the river. The smolt travel to the ocean and eventually return to the river as salmon ready to spawn. This cycle keeps runs strong and fishermen and wildlife fed. However, other cycles need to be broken.

Spring brings renewed energy to Anchorage. This year, it’s especially exciting for homebuyers and builders alike. With mortgage rates stabilizing around the high 5% and low 6% range, and showing signs of gradual improvement, buyers are gaining confidence and re-entering the market.

Every home begins with a vision. The builders featured in this year’s Spring Construction Showcase are the professionals who turn those visions into homes where Alaskans live, grow and thrive.
