Longview Added to List for Improved Housing Markets

LONGVIEW — Longview is one of 29 cities to be added to the list for improved housing markets for the month of February. The national index list identifies areas that have seen an improvement in housing permits, prices, and employment over the last six months. Low interest rates have helped with the market, but home builders are also seeing an improvement. Several new subdivisions are being built in the area. Local housing officials tell KETK it’s a good sign for the area. There are several other Texas cities already on the list, including Tyler.
