Good morning. One sign of the economy's health is the unemployment rate, which remains near historic lows of just 3.7 percent. Another is the total number of vacant homes and condos. About 1.6 percent of the nation's housing lies vacant, according to Attom Data Solutions. This is about 1.53 million homes, including about 300,000 homes that have been abandoned following a foreclosure notice in recent months. That's after 2018 posted a 13-year low for foreclosures. That's one powerful statistic that makes the market look healthy—even if transactions start to slow.
