Data Revision: U.S. subnational - NAHB HOI - Method
Friday, 15 Nov 2019 17:33 ET
By Megan Hilaman
Summary
November 2019 -- For the NAHB "Housing Opportunity Index", concurrent with dissemination of results for 2019Q3, the source has changed an interest rate input (284 monthly series revised from 2012).
Detail

The source writes (citation):

The HOI data released in the third quarter of 2019 incorporates the use of Freddie Mac's 30-year fixed effective rate series, following the discontinuation in mid-2019 of the FHFA series previously used in the HOI calculations. The new, updated HOI series goes back to the first quarter of 2012.

In response, we have:

  1. Synchronized our extract.
  2. Inserted the notation "[Break in methodology at 2012Q1]" in the "source" metadata for each series.

Properties are otherwise unchanged.

The series reside in the historical catalog:
