A new Jan. 17 report by CNBC showed that “U.S. home building surged to a 13-year high [16.9%] in December as activity increased across the board” [emphasis added]. Housing starts spiked 16.9 percent to a “seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.608 million units last month, the highest level since 2006,” [emphasis added] noted CNBC. This follows a trend, as recent economic reports showed consumer confidence at the highest levels in nearly 20 years. To put the housing situation into context, CNBC reported that “economists polled by Reuters had forecast housing starts would increase to a pace of 1.375 million units in December.” So their predictions were off by a whole 233,000 units.

I think it's a little different this time as unemployment rate is at record lows with wage inflation around 4%.

Back in 2006 was a suprime mortgage issue where people were literally borrowing 10s of millions and buying mansions but income didnt justify it.

Subprime loans have been heavily regulated -people are merely taking out loans at record low rates.

Same here. It is going up even more due to continuous gentrification of the area and pushing the ghetto out to the suburbs.

And the number of buildings increased? It may be normal (but not desirable) to raise prices

Oh oh. Though we are due a global downturn also. Germany and the UK are flirting with recession.
