JULY 2012
May sales slip, but pending sales up Housing inventory also shows rapid drop as mortgage rates hold Limited supplies of housing inventory held back existing-home sales in May, but sales maintained a strong lead over year-ago levels and home prices are on a sustained uptrend in all regions, according to the National Association of Realtors. Total existing-home sales, which are completed transactions that include single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops, declined 1.5 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.55 million in May from 4.62 million in April, but are 9.6 percent above the 4.15 million-unit pace in May 2011. Locally, the number of homes on the market — total inventory — fell by almost 20 percent, knocking the number of months of inventory availability to just a little more than a year’s worth. While the number of homes sold during the month in Worcester County dropped slightly from the same period the year before, sales activity was still much higher than it has been for years. The last time 145 homes were sold in May was during the boom years of the last decade. As it is, the number is still higher than what it was before the boom took place. It also appears that home sales will regain their upward trend in the months ahead, based on the number of sales that are pending: up 22 percent from May 2011. One reason for that, according to national surveys conducted by the National Association of Realtors and industry-related enterprises is the continuation of extremely low interest rates. As of the end of the June, the average rate for a 30-year mortgage across the nation was below 3.5 percent. In addition, the generation known as the “Echo Boomers,” that is the sons and daughters of the aging baby boomer crowd, are buying homes at a more rapid pace than their parents did. Their parents benefitted from the incredible appreciation of the homes their parents — the Echo Boomers’ grandparents — realized that often became a legacy of sorts passed on to the younger generation. That same principle is beginning to apply now, as these 30- and 40-somethings move forward in their careers and settle down for the long haul. On the national level, Lawrence Yun,
NAR chief economist, said inventory shortages in certain areas have been building all year. “The slight pullback in monthly home sales is more likely due to supply constraints rather than softening demand. The normal seasonal upturn in inventory did not occur this spring,” he says. “Even with the monthly decline, home sales have moved markedly higher with 11 consecutive months of gains over the same month a year earlier.” There are broad-based shortages of inventory in the lower price ranges in much of the country except the Northeast, and in the West, supply is extremely tight in all price ranges except for the upper end. “Realtors in Western states have been calling for an expedited process to get additional foreclosed properties onto the market because they have more buyers than available property,” Yun adds. Widespread inventory shortages also are found in much of Florida. Total housing inventory at the end of May slipped 0.4 percent to 2.49 million existing homes available for sale, which represents a 6.6-month supply at the current sales pace; there was a 6.5month supply in April. Listed inventory is 20.4 percent below a year ago when there was a 9.1-month supply. Unsold inventory has trended down from a record 4.04 million in July 2007; supplies reached a cyclical peak of 12.1 months in July 2010. “The recovery is occurring despite excessively tight credit conditions and higher downpayment requirements, which are negating the impact of record high affordability conditions,” Yun says. According to Freddie Mac, the national average commitment rate for a 30-year, conventional, fixed-rate mortgage declined to a record low 3.80 percent in May from 3.91 percent in April; the rate was 4.64 percent in May 2011; recordkeeping began in 1971. The national median existing-home price for all housing types rose 7.9 percent to $182,600 in May from a year ago, the third consecutive month of year over year price gains. The last time there were three back-to-back price increases from the same month a year earlier was from March to May of 2006. “Some of the price gain results from a shrinking share distressed homes in the sales mix,” Yun explains. Distressed homes — foreclosures and short sales sold at deep discounts — accounted for 25 percent of May sales (15 percent were foreclosures and 10 percent were short sales), down from 28 percent in April and 31 percent in May

2011. Foreclosures sold for an average discount of 19 percent below market value in May, while short sales were discounted 14 percent. NAR President Moe Veissi offers advice to buyers in markets with limited supply. “We are hearing a lot about multiple bidding and quick sales in areas with tight supply, with competition between first-time buyers and cash investors, who have a significant advantage,” he says. “It’s extremely important to listen to the advice of your agent and perform all the due diligence that you would normally do in a more balanced market, such as making offers contingent upon a satisfactory home inspection,” Veissi says. First-time buyers accounted for 34 percent of purchasers in May, compared with 35 percent in April and 36 percent in May 2011. All-cash sales slipped to 28 percent of transactions in May from 29 percent in April; they were 30 percent in May 2011. Investors, who account for the bulk of cash sales, purchased 17 percent of homes in May, down from 20 percent in April and 19 percent in May 2011. “These figures reflect a modest increase in traditional repeat home buyers in May,” Yun says. Single-family home sales slipped 1.0 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.05 million in May from 4.09 million in April, but are 10.4 percent above the 3.67 million-unit level in May 2011. The median existing single-family home price was $182,900 in May, up 7.7
percent from a year ago. Existing condominium and co-op sales fell 5.7 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 500,000 in May from 530,000 in April, but are 4.2 percent higher than the 480,000-unit pace one year ago. The median existing condo price was $180,000 in May, which is 8.8 percent above May 2011. Regionally, existing-home sales in the Northeast fell 4.8 percent to an annual level of 590,000 in May but are 7.3 percent higher than May 2011. The median price in the Northeast was $250,700, up 3.8 percent from a year ago. Existing-home sales in the Midwest rose 1.0 percent in May to a pace of 1.04 million and are 19.5 percent above a year ago. The median price in the Midwest was $147,700, up 6.4 percent from May 2011. In the South, existing-home sales slipped 0.6 percent to an annual level of 1.78 million in May but are 9.2 percent higher May 2011. The median price in the South was $159,700, up 7.8 percent from a year ago. Existing-home sales in the West declined 3.4 percent to an annual pace of 1.14 million in May but are 3.6 percent above a year ago. The median price in the West was $233,900, up 13.4 percent from May 2011. “The sharp price increase in the West results largely from more sales at the upper end of the market,” Yun explains.

Freddie Mac exec: today is rare opportunity America is experiencing a conjunction between very affordable home prices and historically low mortgage rates that hasn’t been seen for at least 50 years. Since nobody knows how long this will last, today’s market is a rare buying opportunity for working families with stable incomes and good credit. Unfortunately, many of these families may be sitting on the sidelines, says
Freddie Mac senior vice president Paul Mullings, because they are unsure about the new rules of the road for getting a mortgage. To qualify for an affordable conforming, conventional mortgage in today’s market, Mullings says borrowers should have: • A stable income • A good credit history • A common-sense downpayment —
generally about 5 percent for a conventional, conforming mortgage (fortunately there are downpayment programs for qualified borrowers. • Documentation — responsible lenders today will want documentation verifying income (like W-2 forms, tax returns), employment, your latest credit reports, and assets such as bank statements to verify savings. The lender must also obtain an im-
Outlook for rentals bright spot Freddie Mac has released its U.S. Economic and Housing Market Outlook for June showing that rental market activity has been a bright spot for the housing market, and due to rental demand by those postponing homeownership, further increases are expected in the coming year. Over the year ending March 2012, an additional 1.5 million households moved into rental housing, a 4 percent increase in a single year. Rental vacancy rates have dropped roughly 2 percentage points over the past two years. While nominal rents rose (2 to 4 per-
cent) during the year ending March 2012, average rent on an inflation-adjusted basis remained below where it had been for much of the decade prior to the Great Recession. Multifamily property values are up on average about 25 percent during the past two years from their trough during the first quarter of 2010, according to the National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries index, but still about 14 percent below their peak prior to the Great Recession. Starts of buildings with at least five apartments have jumped 48 percent in the first five months of this year when
compared to the same period a year ago. “Further increases in rental demand are likely in the coming year as newly formed households postpone homeownership decisions until the economy strengthens and they have accumulated sufficient savings” said Frank Nothaft, Freddie Mac vice president and chief economist “Apartment market trends may show further vacancy declines and rent gains, with property values improving.” Freddie Mac compiles data on major economic and housing and mortgage market indicators and offers forecasts based on those indicators.
partial third-party appraisal complying with tough new rules to verify the house you want will secure the mortgage you need to buy it. Borrowers still unsure about the new rules can ask a reputable lender to prequalify them for a mortgage. Think of a prequalification letter almost like a driver’s permit that can: • Confirm you can qualify for a mortgage • Tell you how much you can expect to borrow • Make you a stronger home shopper since sellers won’t have to worry about whether you can qualify for a mortgage. During the prequalification process, the lender will review your credit, financial and employment information after you fill out an application and provide documentation (there may be an application fee). While mortgage prequalifications are only good for a limited time, they are still worth getting. Even though you will need to apply for a mortgage once you find a house to buy, your prequalification letter helps clear the way by telling home sellers you’re road-tested for the most affordable mortgage market in 50 years.

Echo Boomers: buying faster than parents The next two decades in housing markets depend largely on the Echo Boomers. That’s according to panelists at the “Shifting Demographics and Housing Choice: A Whole New World?” session held during the Realtors® 2012 Midyear Legislative Meetings & Trade Expo in Washington, D.C., in May. There are approximately 62 million echo boomers in the U.S. Also called “millennials,” echo boomers are currently ages 17-31. According to the 2011 National Association of Realtors® Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, younger home buyers — those ages 18-34 — represent 31 percent of all recent home purchases. “We know that although many young people may be delaying home purchases in today’s economic climate, most of them still aspire to homeownership,” said NAR President Moe Veissi, broker-owner of Veissi & Associates Inc., in Miami. “Realtors® are committed to ensuring that the dream of homeownership can become a reality for generations of Americans to come.” During the session, economists NAR, the University of Washington, and Florida State University presented various research and data that illustrate the future of homeownership from a generational standpoint. “Demography is destiny,” said NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun. “In that vein, demographics can provide very useful insights into the future of housing and homeownership, and the results of these reports indicate that certain generational shifts will have a significant impact on the real estate industry over the
next two decades.” NAR Economist Selma Hepp identified several key demographic trends on both ends of the housing age spectrum. The demand for affordable, accessible housing will increase as the 65-and-older population grows; at the same time, as seniors leave their homes and move into assisted living and other arrangements, they will add to the current supply of housing. Because of their sheer size, however, echo boomers will significantly impact the next two decades in housing. “Echo boomers represent a long-term opportunity
While 900,000 households in the millennial generation own their own home, only 500,000 baby boomer households owned their own homes at the same point in their lives. for a housing market recovery, but they are struggling in the current economic crisis,” said NAR’s Selma Hepp. “Consequently, demand for rental housing is likely to climb in the near term.” As a group, the echo boomers are more racially and ethnically diverse than their baby boomer parents. While 65 percent of baby boomers are Caucasian, only 55 percent of echo boomers are Caucasian. Echo boomers are also more likely to be college educated than previous generations, and are remaining single longer. Glenn E. Crenlin from the Runstad Center for Real
Estate Studies at the University of Washington shared his insights into recent declines in homeownership and whether those declines indicate possible generational trends. “It is worrying that the homeownership rate for those under 35 has fallen more sharply than the rate for older Americans,” said Crenlin. “But I think we need to examine homeownership rates by generation in a more balanced way. Although the Millennial generation does not own homes at the same percentages of those in other generations, many of them are still in the early stages of household formation — in fact, some of them are still in high school.” Crenlin presented data from the American Community Survey that shows a significant increase in homeownership among millennials when compared to baby boomers at the same age. While 900,000 households in the millennial generation own their own home, only 500,000 baby boomer households owned their own homes at the same point in their lives. “Given these data, what we’re looking at in terms of the millennial generation is likely only a delay in homeownership of three to five years, not a long-term trend away from homeownership itself,” said Crenlin. The National Association of Realtors®, “The Voice for Real Estate,” is America’s largest trade association, representing 1 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.
