Producer Price Index (PPI) Data
The index tracks the change over time of selling prices received by participating producers, with the index value of 100 representing the prices received in June of 1981.
TMHS: Prices Received for Finished Homes
The regional Texas Manufactured Housing Survey (TMHS) results had prices received for finished homes moving lower for a few manufacturers in June, and expectations for further increases leveled off for most of the weighted sample.
Average Retail Selling Price Forecasts
A regression model on the price index puts the forecasted average sales price for new homes in the south census region at approximately $154,600 (+/- $8,800) for multi-sections and $85,000 (+/- $6,200) for single-section homes*.
*The PPI is not a perfect predictor for the Census’ Manufactured Housing Survey average price results, but it does account for over 90% of the variability when used in a regression model as the explanatory variable.
