The Epoch Times: Housing Starts Tumble Despite Signs of an Improving Home Sales Market
Despite signs of a heating up housing market, the number of housing starts fell last month. New single-family home construction dropped 8 percent from May to June, contributing to a severe housing shortage and allowing sellers to increase prices.

The average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is now at 6.81 percent, leading to a housing recession and lower home prices. However, new home sales have risen as buyers are forced to turn to newly constructed homes. The lack of new and existing homes on the market has caused home prices to soar.
