Welcome

The HBA is a very active organization which promotes and enhances the professionalism of home building and associated businesses in Montgomery, Greene, Preble, Butler, Warren and Darke Counties.

Permits Continue to Rise - First Yearly Increase Since 2004
A total of 95 residential permits were issued for December 2011, up 25.0% from 76 permits issued in November 2011.  The total number of permits for the entire year was 1,660 up from 1,517 in 2010, surpassing last year by 9.4%.

Single family homes ended the year with 1,210 permits, down 8.5% from 2010.  This difference is attributed to the home buyer tax credit incentive in place at the beginning of 2010 being absent in 2011.

Montgomery County had 20 permits in December for a 2011 year total of 270 verses Greene County’s 24 in December for a total of 232 for 2011.

HBA of Dayton members have seen some signs of encouragement over the last three months.  The increase in total residential permits for 2011 is the first since 2004.  The promising aspect of this year’s increase is the fact there wasn’t an artificial incentive like the Home Buyer Tax Credit offered early last year.  They hope consumer confidence with influences such as historic low mortgage interest rates, great values and some pent up demand will continue to bring improvement to the new home market.
