Economists Predict Strong Housing Market in 2015

New York, New York, January 21, 2015--Economists at the International Builders Show reveal that they expect home buying to accelerate in 2015, according to the Wall Street Journal. 

Though housing has been slow to recover from the housing crash, and in spite of the fact that 2014 proved less robust than anticipated, economists believe that housing in 2015 will be buoyed by strong job growth and consumer confidence. 

“The leading reason behind a better year this year is that the overall economy is doing better,” said David Crowe of the Homebuilders Association. Crowe predicts a 26% increase in new home starts this year.
