Power and Associates, John Humphrey. “More so, we’re increasingly confident that the fundamentals are in place to continue to support an upbeat sector outlook for the coming year.”

J.D. Power and Associates also detailed that 72 month leases accounted for 23 percent of all the sales done in February.  That’s the highest level it’s been in five years, which is an increase of 19 percent from 2011.
