WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) The pace of home construction climbed last month on a jump in apartment building, according to government data released Friday.
Construction started on new U.S. homes rose 6.3% in September, with the annual rate hitting 1.02 million, following a sizable August drop. Septembers starts rate matched the consensus forecast from economists polled by MarketWatch.
Signaling a continuation of the markets rebound, the pace of total home-building starts was up 17.8% from the year-earlier period. However, the starts rate is far below an average of 1.5 million over the 20 years leading up to a bubble peak.
Analysts warn against reading too much into a single months report. A confidence interval of plus or minus 9.3% for Septembers overall starts growth shows the government isnt sure whether the pace of construction rose or fell last month.
One factor that could help support the housing market a bit is the recent drop in mortgage rates, which makes loans cheaper for prospective borrowers. However, low mortgage rates alone wont be enough to spur more housing activity, experts say.
Rather, strong and consistent jobs growth is needed for a sustained pick up in home building and buying. Otherwise, the pace of the household formation will remain slow, with families and friends doubling up in homes to save money.
Apartments led construction growth in September, but economists prefer to see more building of single-family homes. Putting up a single-family homes costs more and creates more jobs than building one apartment. The construction pace for single-family homes rose 1.1% in September, while apartment starts in buildings with at least five units zoomed up 18.5%, the government reported.
The details of the construction data...dont make us feel any more positive about the single family segment of the housing market, which continues to plod along at a frustratingly slow pace, Richard Moody, chief economist at Regions Financial Corp., wrote in a research note.
For each apartment start during September in a building with at least five units, there were about 1.8 single-family-home starts. That ratio is far lower than a long-term average of about 3.4, and down from about 2.1 a year earlier. As home builders increasingly turn toward apartments, that will narrow the housing sectors contribution to the economy.
A gauge of the outlook for construction also showed more growth for apartments. The annual pace of permits for new construction, a sign of future demand, inched up 1.5% to 1.02 million in September from 1 million in August. Permits for single-family homes declined 0.5% in September, while permits in buildings with at least five units rose 7%.

Economic Report: Apartments lead Septembers housing-starts growth
Housing construction picked up in September, buoyed by a surge in apartment-building.
Housing starts increased 6.3% from August, according to new figures from the Census Bureau, a pace a bit faster than analysts expected. That figure was driven by a 18.5% jump in starts for buildings with five or more units. Building permits an indicator of future construction were up 1.5% on the month.
Home builders say they're seeing increased demand as interest rates remain low and the economy gradually improves. Meanwhile, multifamily developers have been pushing to keep up with high demand for apartments as more households rent and more young adults are moving out on their own.
Year to date, apartment construction is up 22.7%, and completions of buildings with five or more units is up 43%. However, the new supply is having relatively little impact on rents, market-watchers say, as demand is growing nearly as fast.
September's growth was fastest in the West and the South.

Housing starts speed up in September, led by new apartments
Construction firms broke ground on more apartment complexes in September, pushing up the pace of U.S. homebuilding.
Housing starts rose 6.3 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.017 million homes, the Commerce Department said Friday. Almost all of the gains came from apartment construction a volatile category which increased 18.5 percent after plunging in August.
The sluggish recovery and meager wage growth has left more Americans renting instead of owning homes. Apartment construction has surged 30.3 percent over the past 12 months.
Starts for single-family houses rose just 1.1 percent in September, contributing to an 11 percent gain during the past 12 months.
Applications for building permits, a good sign of future activity, increased 1.5 percent to an annual rate of 1.018 million. That also reflected the strength in apartment building. Permits for multi-family buildings rose 7 percent in September, compared to a 0.5 percent drop in permits for single-family houses.
Other indicators reflect the continued to shift to rentals. The residential component of the American Institute of Architects billing index stood at 58.1 in August. That index is more heavily-weighted to multi-family housing and any reading above 50 signals growth.
Meanwhile, real estate sales have failed to get much traction in recent months. Price growth is slowing, yet the surge in home values through the middle of last year has made affordability a challenge for many would-be buyers. Homebuilders are also feeling slightly less optimistic.
The recent turmoil in the financial markets caused the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate to drop to a 52-week low of 3.97 percent. That should help spur some additional buying, but it's unlikely to be enough to suddenly boost construction.
"While the drop in mortgage rates likely will prompt stronger home sales by the turn of the year, we don't expect a significant upward trend in construction to re-emerge until next spring," said Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.
Home prices rose 6.4 percent in August compared with a year ago, according to real estate data provider CoreLogic. This marks a substantial slowdown. Home values had chalked up annual gains of as much as 12 percent toward the end of last year.

Apartments Pushed up US Homebuilding in September
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Construction started on new U.S. homes rose 6.3% in September, bouncing up after a sizable August drop, led by growth for volatile apartment building, according to government data released Friday. The annual rate of total housing starts rose to 1.02 million last month, just about matching economists' consensus forecast, from 957,000 in August, the U.S. Commerce Department reported.

Homebuilding gets a boost from apartment construction
Inspect-All Services founder Marty Lunsford, center, stands with his two sons, from left, Brian and Brandon Lunsford, who took over the family business eight years ago. (Special Photo)
In their 20s, single and with no children, Brian and Brandon Lunsford took a break from the daily grind and traveled down to St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands to live and work. Brian, who left his job as a television producer for Fox 5 Atlanta, and Brandon, whod been employed at his fathers business, waited on tables four days a week at a little diner called Chilly Billys to help pay the rent.
They lived in a house overlooking the Caribbean Sea and did their fair share of rubbing shoulders with the stars at happy hour (spying celebrities like country music singer Kenny Chesney).
But over those several months the ambitious brothers also took time to reflect on the course of their lives. Each held a degree from the University of Georgia, and they knew they wanted to be entrepreneurs. They also knew that although their fathers home inspection and pest control business had not grown over the years, it had potential.
After several calls home to dad, the pair hatched a plan to take over the family business.
We knew the company had some value left, but we also knew it needed to be overhauled and started from scratch, said Brian Lunsford. Dad was on board and the rest is history.
Inspect-All Services recently celebrated 30 years of operation in Conyers and the east metro area, due in no small part to the efforts of the Lunsford brothers who bought the business from their father several years ago.
It took off and they did a great job, said father Marty Lunsford, who now works for his sons as an inspector.
Inspect-All Services, located at 575 Sigman Road in Conyers, provides pest control services including termite, pest, rodent and mosquito control; home inspections; radon testing; mold sampling; and infrared thermal imaging.
