Housing Remains Highly Affordable for Sixth Consecutive Quarter

August 19, 2010 - Bolstered by favorable interest rates and low house prices, housing affordability remained near its highest level nationwide for the sixth consecutive month since the series was first compiled nearly two decades ago, according to the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Opportunity Index (HOI) released today.

The HOI indicated that 72.3 percent of all new and existing homes sold in the second quarter of 2010 were affordable to families earning the national median income of $64,400. The index for the second quarter was slightly more affordable than the previous quarter and almost equaled the record-high 72.5 percent set during the first quarter of 2009.  Until 2009, the HOI rarely topped 67 percent and never reached 70 percent.

  Local Contractors are listed under

  Service Providers such as electricians, 
  plumbers, countertops, mortgage lenders,
  and other top specialists are listed under

   Home owners should ask any remodeler if
  they are an “EPA Lead Certified Firm” and
  have a trained and certified renovator on
  staff because only these firms will be able
  to work legally in homes built before 1978.
