Home Improvement Project Activity Tracker Q3 2022

Begin­ning in 2022 HIRI launched this quar­ter­ly track­er, the spir­i­tu­al suc­ces­sor of the Con­sumer Project Plan­ning Sur­vey done pre­vi­ous­ly. Like the Con­sumer Project Plan­ning sur­vey, a pri­ma­ry goal of this sur­vey is to deter­mine what types of projects and activ­i­ties home­own­ers are plan­ning on under­tak­ing with­in the next three months. The Home Improve­ment Project Activ­i­ty Track­er improves on this con­cept in two ways:

• In addi­tion to what project activ­i­ties home­own­ers plan on doing, we are also track­ing activ­i­ties that they recent­ly com­plet­ed with­in the last three months.
• The way in which we col­lect activ­i­ty has been altered to col­lect which areas of their house they improved, fol­lowed by which activ­i­ty they did with­in that home area.

The Home Improve­ment Project Activ­i­ty Track­er sam­ples 2,000 home­own­ers per quar­ter and cov­ers 19 home areas and 38 home improve­ment activ­i­ties. Field­ing and table cre­ation were done in part­ner­ship with IPSOS for each cor­re­spond­ing quarter.
