Fannie Mae just released their National Housing Survey. The survey reported:
- 82% of respondents consider homeownership important to the economy, up two points from January.
- 70% of respondents think it is a good time to buy a house (of which 36% think it is a very good time to buy), up six points from January. This is also four points higher than the 2003 survey – well before home prices peaked – when 66 % said it was a good time.
