Economy Building Momentum into Second Half of the Year
PR Newswire - Thu Jul 23, 8:00AM CDT
Incoming data suggest that domestic economic activity was stronger than expected in the second quarter, paving the way for accelerated growth in the second half of the year, according to Fannie Mae's (OTC Bulletin Board: FNMA) Economic & Strategic Research (ESR) Group. Bolstered by improved consumer spending and residential and nonresidential investment, and coupled with a waning drag from net exports, economic growth is expected to have picked up to 2.8 percent annualized in the second quarter--0.4 percentage points stronger than in the June forecast. Although volatile economic conditions abroad pose potential headwinds to 2015 growth expectations, the ESR Group has adjusted its full-year 2015 economic growth projection to 2.1 percent, up from 1.9 percent in the prior forecast.

Consumer Attitudes on Housing May Signal Healthier Purchase Market Ahead
PR Newswire - Tue Jul 07, 8:00AM CDT
Americans' outlook toward the current home selling market and the future of home rental prices may bode well for purchase activity this year, according to results from Fannie Mae's June 2015 National Housing Survey(TM). Amid continued strong job and income growth, consumers are looking more favorably on the current selling climate, perhaps portending an uptick in the existing home supply. Among those surveyed, the share who believe now is a good time to sell a home reached a new survey high, increasing three percentage points to 52 percent and crossing the 50-percent threshold for the first time in the survey's history. At the same time, the share who said they expect home rental prices to go up in the next 12 months rose four percentage points to 59 percent, also an all-time survey high. With an increase in housing supply from those ready to sell, combined with higher rental cost expectations, more potential homebuyers may be encouraged to leave the sidelines.
