Real estate financing can be a daunting task. And that is especially true in today’s world where lenders are more cautious about lending due to economic uncertainty.

I hope you had a nice holiday season. It is hard to believe it is now 2011. Happy New Year! 2010 was another pretty good sales year in the Metro Phoenix housing market. Interest rates were low, home prices were affordable, and there was a federal tax credit that helped build up buyer demand. December homes sales are expected to come in with a strong reading. These 4th quarter numbers compare favorably to what we saw at the close of 2009 (a record-setting year). It is very encouraging that home sales have picked up again at the end of the year. For 2011 we expect home sales volumes to slip a bit due to lower demand and rising mortgage rates. Home values may dip too as foreclosure lenders discount their prices to get their properties sold. Many people are asking when our real estate market will hit bottom and stop losing value. When the foreclosure and short sale inventories shrink, we will see more buyers of non-distressed, non-bank-owned homes which will
stabilize and eventually increase home values. WE need a marked improvement in employment opportunities to help struggling homeowners stay out of foreclosure while bringing in new buyers. Experts estimate the economy to take a big step forward in 2011. The other big factor influencing home sales and refinance activity is interest rates. Earlier this year we saw a six-month drop in mortgage rates that took us to historic lows. We recently saw those lower rates evaporate in just six weeks as the Federal Reserve implemented a program to create inflation to try to jump-start our ailing economy. As the economy improves next year, we will see mortgage rates rise. This is a clear signal to those wanting to refinance or purchase a home to do so as soon as possible to lock in a low mortgage rate before they bounce higher. The Federal Reserve has hinted at a raise in the prime rate in 2011, affecting those with a Home Equity Line of Credit. For those with existing mortgages, the start of the New Year is an excellent opportunity to review your mortgage options ahead of expected rate increases.

Dog owners rejoice! If you and your pooch are looking to get out and meet some new fluffy friends and enjoy the great outdoors together, you’re in luck. The Valley is home to numerous “bark parks”— recreational areas specifically created for dogs to have a place to socialize and schmooze with one another—as well as pooch-friendly stores and restaurants. (Word on the canine circuit is that Phoenix city officials are also planning on building two more dog parks in the future, so keep your floppy ears open!) We’ve compiled a list of some of Fido’s favorite parks and social spots for any dog owners who may not be aware just how pet-friendly our area is. And for those who are looking to hit the hiking trails with their four-legged friends, be sure to check out the Canine Hiking Club of Arizona’s website (MyDog8AZ.com), which offers links to numerous dog-welcome parks and trails.

Is your home ready for an update? In the market for new furniture? Most of us go one of two routes on this endeavor: We work with our interior designer who helps up select the perfect pieces, or we head to the furniture store and make our own selections. Of course, there is another brilliant option that you may not have considered: Custom-made, one-of-a-kind furniture pieces. Too pricey you say? Too hard to conceptualize what you want? Too daunting to even consider? Read on, fearless homeowner, for some insight and advice from Debra May Himes, interior designer extraordinaire (DMHDesign.com). Q: What are the benefits of custom-designed furniture, as opposed to shopping at furniture stores or working with an interior designer that purchases pre-designed furniture? A: I began designing furniture for my clients because I wanted to provide special pieces specific to my client’s needs. Another reason I design product is that often I cannot find exactly what I want for my client’s space. And if I design something special for my client, no one else will have this piece. When someone hires a designer, they should be getting solutions and designs beyond what they can find or imagine. These pieces are also of very high quality. I have wonderful crafts men and women that I have used for years and that know what I want and expect. Q: How do you collaborate with a homeowner in determining the design? A: When I design for my clients, I try very hard to get inside their heads. I want most of all to provide design solutions and products that they can use and enjoy. By the time I begin designing custom furniture for my clients, I have usually already been working with them on the interior of their home for a while and have a pretty good idea of what they like and how they will use these pieces. The pieces I design for my clients have a specific function and fill a specific need. They are more than art pieces, they have a design purpose. The finishes and materials chosen for the piece must perform well in the manner it is used, and must enhance the design of the piece and the space it will be in. Q: Where do most clients place your furniture? Are there specific rooms or pieces that are most often requested? A: Most of the pieces I have designed for my clients can be found in living rooms or great rooms, dining rooms, powder baths, master bedrooms, and kitchens. Sometimes, my clients will just tell me early on in the project that they will want me to design pieces for their home. Then, as we go through the process of the design of their interiors, it will be clear what pieces should be designed. Q: What are some of the most special pieces you’ve designed? A: I have had the delight of designing so many pieces for people, and they are all special in different ways. Usually, they are complex in design, and not so easy to produce. Often, I have lost a night or two of sleep worrying over how it all will come together. And when it does, my clients’ faces are great rewards for all of my effort. I really do a get a kick out of making my clients happy and providing something they will truly use and enjoy for years.
