More good news for Tampa Bay home buyers

By Tampa Bay Home Buyer Team, March 18, 2009

I found it refreshing that in a latest report that construction of new homes jumped 22% in February. Despite the forecasts, housing actually rose to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 583,000 last month, up 22% from a revised 477,000 in January. This all according to the Commerce Department. It was the first time housing starts increased since June, when they rose 11%:

Of course this is good news for Tampa Bay home buyers as well as for those beyond because it shows that housing is still growing despite the dismal predictions.
