CORREDORES INMOBILIARIOS FELICITAN AL GOBERNADOR POR LA NOTABLE RECUPERACION ECONOMICA DE LA FLORIDA

CORREDORES INMOBILIARIOS FELICITAN AL GOBERNADOR POR LA NOTABLE RECUPERACION ECONOMICA DE LA FLORIDA

En su página de Internet, floridarealtors.org, los corredores inmobiliarios de la Florida destacaron los logros del Gobernador Rick Scott. “Nos complace que los corredores inmobiliarios hagan eco del reporte de la UCF sobre la notable recuperación de la economía del estado y que hayan felicitado al Gobernador por sus políticas a favor de la creación de empleos y el fomento del crecimiento,” afirmó Jaime Flórez, Director de Comunicaciones en Español de la Campaña del Gobernador Scott. A continuación, apartes del documento de la UCF:

La Florida fue uno de los primeros estados donde se sintió el efecto de la recesión nacional, con pérdida de múltiples empleos a partir de abril del 2007, varios meses antes de otros estados, dio a conocer el economista Sean Snaith en su Pronóstico Económico de la Florida para el Primer Trimestre.   

La recuperación nacional comenzó en junio del 2009, pero la Florida se demoró a unirse a la tendencia, dice Snaith. Por varios años, permaneció atrás, a un paso más lento que el de la recuperación económica de los Estados Unidos.

No obstante, afirma Snaith, la Florida ya superó esa situación y ahora anda por delante de los demás.

“Este no es un logro pequeño,” señala Snaith. “Mirando hacia el futuro, la Florida extenderá su liderazgo sobre la economía nacional a lo largo de los próximos años, en la medida que esperamos que la economía de la Florida continúe creciendo a un ritmo más acelerado que el de la nación como un todo.”

Snaith pone a la tasa de desempleo de la Florida “entre las buenas noticias.”

Las tasas de desempleo han descendido de sus topes, en parte debido al bajo índice de participación de la fuerza de trabajo (59.6 por ciento en diciembre del 2013), y ellos esperan que continúe cayendo hasta el año 2017, proyecta Snaith. El ritmo de la caída se desacelerará dramáticamente a medida que reaccione el crecimiento de la fuerza de trabajo. A pesar de este significativo viento frontal, la tasa de desempleo, que actualmente está en 6.1% deberá descender hasta el 5.4% para finales del 2017.

De acuerdo con el Gobernador Scott, el estado ha creado más de 500,000 empleos nuevos en el sector privado desde diciembre del 2010. “Esto es medio millón de empleos en apenas poco más de tres años,” dice Scott.

El economista Snaith apunta también hacia otros indicadores económicos positivos. Dice que espera que los sectores que van a registrar los más sólidos promedios de crecimiento durante el periodo 2014-2017, serán el de la construcción (10 por ciento); servicios profesionales y empresariales (4.3 por ciento); comercio, transporte y servicios públicos (4 por ciento); educación y servicios de salud (2.3 por ciento); y esparcimiento y hospitalidad (1.8 por ciento).

Snaith también destaca que la construcción de casas reaccionó favorablemente en el 2013. En el 2014, proyecta se dará inicio a la construcción de más de 108,000 viviendas. Esta cifra crecerá a poco menos de 144,000 en el 2015, y llegará a 161,600 en el 2016, para seguir creciendo hasta 165,500 en el 2017. El economista de la UCF dice que el crecimiento en la actividad residencial catalizará el crecimiento en el sector comercial y empujará hacia arriba, hasta dos dígitos, el crecimiento de los empleos en el sector de la construcción.

Si bien el crecimiento de los ingresos reales de las personas decayó hasta el 1.8 por ciento en el 2014, se proyecta que crecerá. Entre el 2014 y el 2017, el ingreso real de las personas crecerá estable y aceleradamente y promediará 4.1 por ciento, con un crecimiento de 3.6% en el 2014, subiendo a 4.6 % en el 2017.

El crecimiento en el inicio de construcciones residenciales promediará 32.5 por ciento durante el período 2014-2017, con el crecimiento más rápido registrándose durante los años 2014 y 2015.

Las ventas al public crecerán a un promedio de 4.4 por ciento entre 2014 y 2017.
