NEW YORK, NY, July 17, 2012 (Press-News.org) A new CNN article reports that residential building permits are on the move again. In May, builders applied for permits to construct new homes at the highest rate since September 2008, according to a Census Bureau report. The report also indicated that the increase in permits at an annual rate of 780,000 is similar to a recent survey of builder confidence, hitting its highest peak since 2007, as reported by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). California-based Realtor Jack Hipolito Fernandez is not surprised by the increase in residential building permits.
"Our business works with residential and commercial builders needing to sell properties," Jack Hipolito Fernandez said. "We have definitely not seen a slowdown lately. Builders are finally finding their place again in this real estate market and the buyers are eating it up. With buyers still looking for good deals, it is no wonder builders are increasing their permit requests now."
Housing starts dipped 4.8 percent compared with April, although numbers did go up 28.5 percent compared with the previous year. Despite the decline in housing starts, Pat Newport, a housing market analyst with HIS Global Insight, believes the NAHB report is good news for the real estate industry. He said that the data shows "housing construction numbers will get better and that means more jobs."
Jack Hipolito Fernandez agrees with Newport. "This increase in permits is good news for the employment seekers," he said. "More permits mean more construction, which in turn, means more jobs for people. That is good news for our economy."
Newport believes housing starts were low because of a surge in construction this past winter, thanks to warm weather. That moved up starts that would normally happen later in the year.
David Crowe, chief economist for the NAHB, believes the market is far from hitting its full potential. "Right now, we're half of where starts and permits would normally be and less if you consider this a recovery period," he said. "Builders understand that there's still a long road ahead - but things are improving." Jack Hipolito Fernandez agrees that the market still has a long way to go until it fully recovers.

Cancer is a difficult illness to face. Invasive treatments combined with substantial mental anxiety can take a toll on your health above and beyond the disease itself.
But what if you found out it all wasn't really necessary? In more and more cases across the country, patients are coming forward with stories of misdiagnosis of cancer.

Future After Divorce: How the Split Impacts Insurance and Other Benefits
The decision to get a divorce is not an easy one. From determining how assets are split, custody issues if children are involved and whether the separation will be finalized using a mediator or within the courtroom, the process can easily be overwhelming.

Blind Spots Can Blind Side Motorists
Blind spots for drivers are always there on the road and must be checked in order to prevent harm to the public. When drivers do not take blind spots into consideration, tragedy can occur leaving children, pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and motorcyclists seriously injured or killed.
Blind spots can come in different forms. Objects such as large trees, bus stops, signs and other stationary objects as you approach an intersection can create blind spots for drivers. The blind spot created by a stationary object actually shifts ...

Child Injuries and Car Accidents: Booster Seat Bill Now Law in Arizona
When a child-passenger is involved in a car accident without a booster seat, he or she runs the risk of suffering internal damage, serious spinal injury or worse. Nearly 80 percent of children who were killed in Arizona car crashes in 2009 were not properly restrained in a booster seat. Therefore, the proper use of a booster seat is instrumental in car safety among young children. Over the last several years, lawmakers in Arizona tried to pass booster seat bills that would require children ages 5-7 ...

Drowsy Driving Might Be Just as Deadly as Drunk Driving
Everyone knows the risks of driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The delayed reaction time and errors in judgment associated with intoxication can be fatal on the road. What most people don't know is that driving when you're short on sleep can be just as dangerous.
A recent French study - published in the medical trade journal Archives of Internal Medicine - found that drivers who were either legally intoxicated or very drowsy were at least twice as likely to cause accidents. The study examined ...

Senator Proposes New Permanent Visa Quotas for Graduates of U.S. Schools
As controversial as many immigration issues have become in the U.S., most politicians and economists recognize the economic benefits of granting permanent residency to skilled workers. Immigration based on employment makes all the more sense when the visa recipient obtained an advanced degree at an American university and will bring technical skills to the economy.
Texas Senator John Cornyn recently proposed federal legislation that would allocate more than 50,000 permanent immigrant visas to ...
