41 2016 Regional Summary Look for regional economic growth to be below its half-century annual average of 3.1 percent and also below that of the nation. The port, health-care industries, and tourism are likely to help the region s moderate economic expansion in 2016 Single-family home prices in 2016 are likely to continue to increase at a moderate pace. Inventories, sale volume, and days-on-market are all moving in the right direction. Months of supply of existing homes are lower than their historic average. Lingering distressed home volume remains a concern 42
