Previously dedicated rooms are merging together to create flexibility in living
Laura Olive FOR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY
2000's grew to the point that these homes where dubbed McMansions. However, according to the US census bureau each year since 2007 average square footage has been shrinking from 2521 square feet in 2007 to 2377 square feet in 2010. It is estimates that the average square footage of new single family homes by 2015 will be 2050. Rooms are taking on more flexible uses instead of a specific dedicated use. People favor the great room, a combination of family room, kitchen, and eating space instead of each area being separate. Previously dedicated
rooms are merging together to create flexibility in living. Buyers are looking for quality over quantity. They are looking for thoughtful design and personalization. They want more attention to detail. They want the home to be an expression of who they are, to express their personality. There is a movement to live more responsibly and less pretentiously. According to the National Association of Home Builders we are seeing fewer media rooms, skylights, formal dining rooms, and mudrooms. Kitchens are losing fireplaces, butler’s pantries, wine coolers and trash compactors. Kitchens are gaining recessed lighting, 2nd sinks, low flow faucets, energy efficient appliances, and space for eat-

We live in homes differently today than we did the past. The older floor plans are designed for a life that we fundamentally don’t live like today. According to the National Association of Home Builders, areas that are getting smaller or disappearing all together are foyers, formal dining rooms, living rooms, and garages. Rooms that are getting bigger are bathrooms, family rooms, and kitchens. In home design today we are seeing more laundry rooms (instead of laundry closets), walk-in closets, eatin kitchens, and main level master bedrooms than we did in the past. Fifty nine percent of home buyers in a recent home survey done by Better Homes and Gardens indicate they would want a home office in their next home. The square footage of new single family homes during the 1990's through early
ing. Energy efficiency and green building is important. Buyers are asking about insulation factors, windows, efficiency of the furnace and air conditioning systems, hot water heater, and appliances. They ask about any recycled products used in construction. You can buy carpet today that is made of recycled pop bottles and structural beams made from recycled wood (paralam). Homeowners are using more low and no VOC paints, formaldehyde-free cabinets and furniture, air and water purification systems, and refrigeration for fresh foods. Homeowners are thinking in terms of less lawn and more xeriscaping. Some are interested in having raised planting beds for
flowers and plants and /or grow their own vegetables. Sarah Susanka, an architect and author of the Not So Big House books started writing about her ideas surrounding home design in 1998. She has since written several books and her website is www.susanka.com. She was tapping into the feelings that many people were having and has written extensively about it. This would be a good resource to get more ideas about current home design. Laura Olive, CRS, ABR, CDPE, EcoBroker, CNE is a Broker Associate with RE/MAX Alliance. Please write to: 125 S.

The slowing increases, particularly on pricing are good news for the market because the pace set in July with an 11.6% price increase was probably pushing the market into an unsustainable ‘bubble’ position. We are still on a pace for 2013 sales in excess of 4,000 homes at an average price of $276,000 for a total volume of $1.1 billion. This compares to the high of 4,100 home sales set in 2004 and the highest total volume achieved in 2005 with $983 million. The inventory continues to shrink dropping from 1,267 listings at the end of September to 1,159 at the end of October. Once we remove the under contract listings and new homes that are listed as ‘to be built’ or under construction, the net inventory is down from 749 to 647. With a projected demand over the next six months of 1,700 homes there is about 2.3 month supply, way below 6 to 7 months which is considered a balanced market between supply and demand. The marketing times reflect the low supply as the home sales that closed in October were on the market an average of 39 days to offer and 71 days to close. This is compared to 65 and 98 days respectively last year and continues to bring down the figures for the year to date which are now 41 days to offer and 75 days to close.

New construction is slowing improving with 52 closed sales in October representing 17.6% of the total sales compared to 41 sales last year which was 14.9% of the total. For the year to date there have been 473 sales of new homes, an increase of 30% from last year and the market share is now at 13.7%. **** The most recent CaseShiller home price index report shows home prices in the twenty largest metropolitan statistical areas (MSA) rose 12.8% in August on a year over year basis which is the biggest twelve month gain since February 2006. Denver is one of the twenty MSA’s and set a new record in August with an increase of 10.1%, the twentieth consecutive month of increases. Denver was one of only two cities – Dallas is the other – to set new highs; the other 18 cities remain below their peaks. As an example, Las Vegas leads with a year over year price gain of 29% which is still down 475 from the peak. The good news might be that the pace of the increases is slowing as August was just a 1.3% rise over July and this is half the monthly increase reported for April. Experts say that the slowing of the monthly increase is not necessarily a bad thing as it will reduce the chance of another bubble in home

News Brief
Borrowers Feeling Lukewarm
WITH HOME PRICES UP, A MODERATE DECREASE IN BORROWER HEALTH ISNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;T A BIG ISSUE, NEW REPORT SUGGESTS Home prices are rising, which is a good economic sign, but that also makes it more difficult for homebuyers to qualify for loans. The average loan-to-value ratio for potential borrowers increased slightly in the third quarter 2013, according to a recent report by LendingTree, an online mortgage and auto loan website. Loan-to-value ratio (or the amount that is loaned divided by the value of the asset being purchased) is a key qualifying factor for mortgages, so an increase puts more pressure on borrowers. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one reason cited for a 1.56-point decrease in Borrower Health Score to 79.94 this quarter, a number compiled by LendingTree (based on a 100-point scale) to measure the financial health of mortgageseekers in each state. Another factor is that the average credit score of prospective borrowers is down to 636 for 640 the previous quarter. $179,900â&#x20AC;&#x201C;$259,900 9 .' 01 5# 14

This is a moderate decrease in borrower health, the report states, and Borrower Health Score is higher than the third quarter 2012. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As the market shifts from refinance activity to primarily purchase activity, it is likely that the pool of prospective borrowers is also shifting,â&#x20AC;? writes Megan Greuling, communications manager at LendingTree. Hawaii, Washington D.C., New Jersey, California and Massachusetts have the highest Borrower Health Scores. On the other hand, the average borrower in Mississippi, West Virginia, Kentucky, Alabama and Indiana are in the worst financial health. A healthy housing market requires rising home prices and qualified buyers to purchase them, so Borrower Health Score is an indication of how a stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s housing market will fare, according to LendingTree.

REAL ESTATE WEEKLY SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2013 13
With Peter G. Miller
Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my home value? Question: Tax assessors, home appraisers and real estate brokers all have valued our home differently. We were appraised for $350,000 last year, which was $110,000 lower than the assessed value for the same period. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re wondering how a â&#x20AC;&#x153;true marketâ&#x20AC;? value can be determined fairly when the players use different rules. Is there a designated agency or government official to contact regarding this discrepancy? Answer: Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a quick rundown of the estimates you can receive for your property value:
Peter G. Miller
â&#x20AC;˘ Appraisers provide an independent estimate of fair market value. For residential property, that value is largely determined by the comps (or comparable properties) used in the appraisal. If you
get two appraisals, you will likely get two different sets of comps and therefore differing valuations. Appraisers receive a fixed fee for their service, regardless of the value they determine. â&#x20AC;˘ Real estate brokers look at recent past sales, typically from local MLS systems. They offer a "broker price opinion" or "Comparative Market Analysis" (CMA). These are not appraisals, but rather an effort to establish the sale or purchase price for a given property as the representative of a buyer or seller. Again, differing comps will produce differing values.
â&#x20AC;˘ Assessments are efforts by local governments to determine the fair market value of a property. That valuation, multiplied by the tax rate, produces your property tax bill. While appraisals and CMAs rely on the latest market sales, that may not match up with assessments. In some jurisdictions, assessments are only updated every three years. Thus, it is possible to get an assessment that lags behind the market â&#x20AC;&#x201C; whether the market is going up or down. The result is that assessments, CMAs and appraisals
are all likely to vary. There is no governmental agency to sort out which is better or worse. You're going to get different results depending on who you ask and when. It's not a system failure, it's just the result of different approaches to a complex question. If you see big discrepancies in prices, point them out to the person who is estimating your property value â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that is, if they're not in your favor.

Here are some things to look for in a new home loan There are few purchases that are more exciting than buying a brand new home.

To help keep your out-of-pocket costs down, look for a lender with a wide selection of down payment assistance programs. Getting a loan for your new home shouldn’t be a chore.
