Housing Starts Gain Momentum in March
A substantial increase in new home construction last month provided reassurance that housing activity will proceed at a healthy level this year, according to Kent Conine, president of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and a house and apartment builder from Dallas.
Figures released by the U.S. Commerce Department showed that new homes were started at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.78 million in March, an increase of 8.3 percent from February's pace of 1.64 million units.
