Led by impressive gains in both single- family and multifamily production, nation- wide housing starts surged 25.5 percent in October to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.32 million units, according to newly released data from the U.S. Depart- ment of Housing and Urban Development and the Commerce Department. Single- family starts reached their highest level since October 2007 while multifamily pro- duction jumped 68.8 percent from the pre- vious month. "These robust figures correlate with strong builder optimism in the housing market," said Ed Brady, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders and a home builder and developer from Bloomington, Ill. "A firming job market, a growing economy and rising household for- mations will keep the housing recovery on track into next year." Single-family starts rose 10.7 percent in October to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 869,000 units while multifamily pro- duction climbed 68.8 percent to 454,000 units. Combined single- and multifamily starts posted double-digit gains in all four regions in October. The Northeast, Midwest, South and West increased 44.8 percent, 44.1 per- cent, 17.9 percent and 23.2 percent, respec- tively. Housing starts jump 25.5 percent
