Abstract
The month-over-month and year-over-year housing data for September were mixed. Single-family permits and starts, harbingers for current and future construction, were negative month-over-month and year-over-year. Completions remained slowed due to the unavailability of building materials and products, among other factors. Total and single-family housing under construction were the only categories positive on month-over-month and year-over-year bases.
