Obviously, with the severity of our housing collapse a snap-back recovery is just a fantasy. As I’ve said before, the first step to any real housing recovery, is housing market stability and base building.
This video by Standard & Poor’s reviews and analyzes the current trends in the housing market. Standard & Poor’s Deputy Chief Economist Beth Ann Bovino notes that January data for U.S. existing home sales and housing starts continue to show a recovery, though still at a modest pace. And, apparently, the government isn’t willing to let this recovery burn out, proposing several plans designed to kick it into a higher gear. But don’t bet on a speedy recovery just yet. Getting some of those proposals through Congress won’t be easy.
