Fall Forecast Conference Draws Record Media Attendance
More than 30 members of the national media, including reporters from USA Today, BBC World News, Down Jones and the Associated Press, covered NAHB’s Fall Construction Forecast Conference in Washington, D.C. last week. Many from across the country viewed the all-day event on NAHB’s simultaneous webcast. This was the largest media attendance for a construction forecast conference to date.
After the conference, NAHB Chief Economist David Seiders and Bernard Markstein, NAHB’s director of forecasting, conducted several interviews with the media.
In addition, PBS’s “Nightly Business Report” interviewed several builders and conference speakers on their views of where the housing market is heading.
The conference also attracted interest from financial analysts from New York, Chicago and London.
More than 1,000 NAHB members watched the webcast, as well, many of them at events hosted by their local home builders association.
