On the latest episode of NAHB’s podcast, Housing Developments, CEO Jim Tobin and COO Paul Lopez discuss key wins for the housing industry, including the latest NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index data, which moved into positive territory, with starts and permits following suit; the Federal Reserve’s decision to hold steady and indication for cuts later this year; and new housing action plan from the New Democratic Coalition, which includes many key areas NAHB has been actively advocating for.

That’s not to say the housing industry isn’t without challenges, however. Tobin and Lopez also address the ongoing housing affordability crisis and aftermath of last year’s devastating wildfires in Maui.
