operative builders. Kinds of establishments include single family
housing custom builders, general contractors, design builders,
engineer-constructors, joint-venture contractors, and turnkey
contractors. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and
growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success
factors. Also included are three year industry forecasts, growth rates
and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.

Post Hurricane Katrina: Recovery the stimulus for growth

The industry has enjoyed good times recently, but the crisis
conditions emerging in the subprime lending market have weighed the
industry down. Thankfully the future paints a brighter picture, as the
industry is forecast to strengthen considerably, reflecting a cyclical
recovery in housing demand from the current deep cyclical trough. The
devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina is expected to stimulate an
unprecedented level of housing demand in the affected region.
