The NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index in the US rose to 46 in November, the highest in seven months, from 43 in October, and above forecasts of 44 as builders anticipate that market conditions will continue to improve after the Republicans' victory in both the White House and Congress. “With the elections now in the rearview mirror, builders are expressing increasing confidence that Republicans gaining all the levers of power in Washington will result in significant regulatory relief for the industry that will lead to the construction of more homes and apartments,” said NAHB Chairman Carl Harris. The gauge for current sales conditions rose by 2 points to 49, while sales expectations in the upcoming 6 months went up 7 points to 64. Also, the gauge measuring traffic of prospective buyers posted a 3 point gain to 32. Meanwhile, 31% of builders cut home prices in November, compared to 32% in October. The average price reduction was 5%, slightly below the 6% rate posted in October.
