Odessa home permits surge as market shows lasting strength
Odessa builders filed 12 new home permits in May this year and seven in May 1997, a 71 percent rise, with 15 single family permits in June this year versus seven in June 1997, up 114 percent. For the first six months, 85 permits were issued, up 19.7 percent from 71 in 1997, with valuations rising to 8.81 million dollars from 6.28 million. Analysts attribute the hot market to low interest rates, buyer demand, and supply constraints, noting some properties drawing multiple offers and premium properties in demand. Local Realtors anticipate continued strength through year-end and into early 1999.
