October 2016 Housing Starts in the Saguenay CMA
(firmenpresse) - QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 11/08/16 -- Housing starts in the Saguenay census metropolitan area (CMA) were trending at 434 units in October, compared to 381 in September, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). The trend is a six-month moving average of the monthly seasonally adjusted annual rates (SAAR) of housing starts.
"The trend in housing starts in the Saguenay CMA rose for the second straight month in October. Although the pace of construction accelerated slightly, the level of activity remains low from a historical perspective, and we forecast that 2016 will end with an overall decline in housing starts relative to last year," said Nicolas Bernatchez, Market Analyst at CMHC.
CMHC uses the trend measure as a complement to the monthly SAAR of housing starts to account for considerable swings in monthly estimates and obtain a more complete picture of the state of the housing market. In some situations, analyzing only SAAR data can be misleading in some markets, as they are largely driven by the multiples segment of the markets, which can be quite variable from one month to the next.
The stand-alone monthly SAAR was 681 units in October, up from 523 in September.
Preliminary housing starts data is also available in English and French at the following link: .
As Canada''s authority on housing, CMHC contributes to the stability of the housing market and financial system, provides support for Canadians in housing need, and offers objective housing research and information to Canadian governments, consumers and the housing industry.
