Freddie Mac's 2012 Outlook: Housing to Slowly Gain Ground

Five outlook highlights:

  • Economic growth will likely strengthen to about 2.5 percent in 2012.
  • The U.S. unemployment rate will decline but likely remain above 8 percent.
  • Mortgage rates will likely remain very low, at least through mid-2012.
  • Housing activity will be better in 2012, but not robust.
  • Expect less single-family originations but more multifamily lending in 2012.
