US HOUSING MARKET HOLDING STEADY

摘要

On August 31, 2016, Freddie Mac released its Multi-Indicator Market Index (MiMi), showing South Carolina and two additional metro areas-Atlanta and Augusta, Georgia-entering their historic benchmark levels of housing activity. The national MiMi value stands at 85, largely unchanged from last month, indicating a housing market that's on the outer range of its historic benchmark level of housing activity, with a +0.08% improvement from May to June and a three-month improvement of +1.37%. On a year-over-year basis, the national MiMi value improved +5.76%. Since its all-time low in October 2010, the national MiMi has rebounded 42%, but remains significantly off from its high of 121.7.
