According to Mark Schniepp’s California Forecast: Unemployment rates are falling, employment and income are rising, and housing markets are rebounding nearly everywhere. Despite sequestration, high gasoline prices, higher taxes in January, and a sluggish manufacturing sector, the economic indicators to date are generally moving in a positive direction.
So, what’s next?
Housing will be a key factor in the growth of the economy
next quarter and for the remainder of 2013. It should be
especially important in California.
