LEVELING THE FIELD OR STACKING THE DECK? T

he latest news out of Washington is that the Federal Housing Finance Agency is encouraging Fannie and Freddie to smarten up on credit scores, theoretically allowing those with currently skimpy credit files access to government-backed loans. Because getting more people into the mortgage game worked out so well the last time. Washington correspondent Ken Harney lays it all out (see article, page 18). It’s something the government has been encouraging the GSEs to do for a while. The current analysis and judgment systems are outdated and unfairly – perhaps even discriminatorily – biased towards the “average” American. Those with limited credit profiles have resultantly limited scores. This includes first-time buyers and minority applicants, as well the unbanked and underbanked. Should an applicant without a credit his-

tory be denied a mortgage? It could be argued (and is) that a person without credit debt, without student loan debt, without even a car loan, is entirely capable of managing their money and at no risk of defaulting on a mortgage. It could also be argued (and is) that without a history of payment, extending a loan for a purchase as enormous as a house puts the lender, and eventually the GSEs, at an unsuitable risk. The sheer volume of mortgages backed by the GSEs is astonishing and there’s a lot riding on their security. A little poison in the well can have disastrous consequences. (See: The Great Recession.) On the other hand, more (responsible, qualified) homeowners is unquestionably good news for the national and local economies. Here, as always, there is a middle ground (though we have no hope that Congress can find it). Fannie and Freddie’s systems are old and outdated, and along with every other institution in the world, they must be brought in line with market norms. The term “credit score” itself may be outdated; perhaps “financial payment history” is a more accurate description of what lenders want to see. Utility and rent payment histories are entirely relevant to what is currently called a “credit profile” and resultant

score, and including them makes perfect sense. Caution is the watchword – for loosening lending standards, opening credit score requirements and raising interest rates. Congress and the FHFA must be cautious as they proceed with including more financial information in credit scores, and lenders must be cautious in reviewing those profiles. This caution, of course, takes time and due diligence, but so does digging the country of the worst depression in living history. Certainly there are a fair number of Americans who, when the entirety of their financial histories are revealed, will fit perfectly the profile of an ideal FHA recipient. There are also some who will remain borderline and need careful examination, and there are those who will still not be a good bet. Expanding the scope of an applicant’s financial history will make for a more comprehensive, cohesive and relevant whole, and we – cautiously – support it. n

Heartbreak Healed

FANNIE AND FREDDIE HERE TO STAY Once Bruised By Buybacks, Bankers Say Relationship With GSEs Improving

BY LAURA ALIX | COMMERCIAL RECORD STAFF

reater clarity around repurchases and a new set of affordable lending products went a long way toward improving bankers’ relationship with the governmentsponsored enterprises (GSEs) this year, though memories of crisis-era buybacks linger like a bad champagne hangover. In the New Year, forget all those resolutions to wind down Fannie and Freddie; they’re here to stay – at least for now.

For all the talk of privatizing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two GSEs still play an enormous role in the mortgage business. In the third quarter alone, they collectively pumped well over $200 billion in liquidity into the mortgage market. And bankers said that new programs aimed at first-time homebuyers and greater clarity around repurchases have helped to patch what was once a troubled relationship. “There are still some challenges with regard to the relationships between banks and the government sponsored enterprises and that’s primarily because of the pre-crisis,” said Simon Tahan, senior vice president and director of mortgage

banking at Webster Bank. “There’s still a lot of paranoia about buybacks, but things are getting better, I’m pleased to say.” Moreover, he said, the GSEs have opened the credit box, easing standards for borrowers with less-than-perfect credit, allowing up to a 97 percent loan-to-value ratio for some affordable lending products, and limiting loan-level price adjustments for creditworthy borrowers. “The good news is, we have seen now the GSEs have moved with regard to the credit pendulum,” Tahan said. “There’s a little bit more ease of credit, and Fannie and Freddie have come slightly out of

the box with regard to credit and treatment of certain types of obligations and assets.” That expanded menu has been particularly beneficial for community banks, many of which might not otherwise have access to the capital markets without the government-sponsored enterprises. Mike Sheahan, retail lending manager at Chelsea Groton Bank, said the bank had not been challenged by buybacks from the GSEs. Furthermore, he said the bank was enthusiastic about integrating Fannie’s new product into Chelsea Groton’s own suite, anticipated in the first quarter. It’s also created a kind of “ripple effect” for community banks like First County Bank in Stamford, said President and COO Robert Granata. Fannie and Freddie “making any move to ease the burden

on first-time homeownership is something that we applaud – and that helps the entire market,” he said. “We look at this as not necessarily just first-time homebuyers, but the whole market across all sectors.

“

rates; though the Fed bumped its key interest rate just 25 basis points, Haymore expected that would be enough to dampen origination volume and shake out whatever few refinance business might

anytime soon, but Tahan said he’s hopeful for the year ahead. “It’s great to see what Fannie and Freddie have done in 2015, really moving the pendulum and providing a little bit of

The good news is, we have seen now the GSEs have moved with regard to the credit pendulum. There’s a little bit more ease of credit, and Fannie and Freddie have come slightly out of the box with regard to credit and treatment of certain types of obligations and assets.” — Simon Tahan, director of mortgage banking, Webster Bank

Those who are selling this smaller firsttime home are probably going to buy up and get a larger house, those who are selling larger homes are scaling down. … It’s a host of business that we can take advantage of.”

Leveling The Playing Field Meanwhile, Fannie and Freddie will continue rolling out a new common securitization platform mostly intended to level the playing field a little bit on the trading floor. “If you think about what’s been going on between the two GSEs, they’re largely the same, but their securities trade much differently in the market,” said Scott Haymore, TD Bank’s head of pricing and secondary markets. Referring to Fannie’s 54-day delay versus Freddie’s 44, he said, “Theoretically, Freddie should trade higher than Fannie, but it never has.” Fannie and Freddie, it seems, don’t rank among community bankers’ concerns for the mortgage market in the year ahead. While praising the GSEs’ efforts to provide more affordable borrowing options, Granata did mention TRID as a potential concern in 2016, albeit noting it was not an issue for his bank. “One of the other piece that they’re monitoring are all the changes in TRID,” he said. “Those TRID changes could cause a slight ripple effect for banks that are selling to them.” Concerns also linger about interest

actually still be left. “Most economists have been calling for rates to go up and for all of us in the mortgage industry, that means we’ll all be competing for much lower origination volume,” he said. “That’s the worry.” Bankers are certainly a cautious bunch and not likely to forget the sins of the crisis

ease of credit. I’m encouraged that we’ll see more good work done by them,” he said. “I think there’s a lot of work that still needs to be done but there’s clearly a lot of good dialogue moving in that direction.” n Email: lalix@thewarrengroup.com

NEWS ROUNDUP CT GREEN BANK, HANNON ARMSTRONG PARTNER TO PROVIDE GREEN ENERGY FINANCING

MATTRESS MANUFACTURING GIANT MOVING TO CONN. IN 2016

The Connecticut Green Bank and Hannon Armstrong have partnered to increase energy efficiency, solar and other clean energy projects throughout the state’s commercial and industrial sectors. As part of the agreement to support the Green Bank’s Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) program, Hannon Armstrong will offer up to $100 million in funding for green energy projects for commercial and industrial buildings and businesses. The partnership aims to streamline the process of obtaining financing comprehensive energy projects for building owners. C-Pace helps provide commercial, industrial, nonprofit and multifamily property owners access to affordable, long-term financing for energy upgrades to their buildings. “This agreement will help us streamline the approval process for commercial loans and ensure a reliable source of capital for our businesses and institutions,” Bryan Garcia, president and CEO of Connecticut Green Bank, said in a statement. “Investing in energy efficiency and clean energy projects through the Connecticut Green Bank’s C-PACE program provides Hannon Armstrong a new scalable channel partner to cost effectively deploy capital,” Jeffrey Eckel, president and CEO of Hannon Armstrong, said in a statement. The Alliance to Save Energy’s CarbonCount metric will also be used to provide third-party certification of reductions in greenhouse gases resulting from investments made through this agreement.

Serta Simmons Bedding LLC will relocate from Agawam, Massachusetts to Windsor Locks by the end of 2016. Serta Simmons Bedding, the owner and manager of National Bedding Co. LLC (the largest licensee and majority shareholder of Serta Inc.) and Simmons Bedding Co. LLC – thus making it the largest mattress manufacturer in the nation – has secured an $8 million, 10-year loan through the state’s Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD). The loan will carry two percent interest, and loan forgiveness for $5 million will be provided if the company maintains the estimated 200 new and relocated positions for two consecutive years. The funding, which requires State Bond Commission approval, will be used for new equipment and improvements to the new location, 140 Old County Circle. “In the last year alone, [Gov. Dannel P. Malloy] and DECD have launched several initiatives aimed at helping manufacturing companies grow their workforce, develop the skills of their workers and develop new technologies,” DECD Commissioner Catherine Smith said. “Serta Simmons Bedding’s decision to relocate operations in Connecticut is no coincidence. The company knows we are serious about growing this important sector of our economy.”

More than a quarter of a million properties regained equity in the third quarter (Q3) of 2015, according to a report released today by CoreLogic, a property information service provider. The report says that 92 percent of all U.S. homes with outstanding mortgages now have positive equity. Nationwide, borrower equity increased year over year by $741 billion in Q3 2015. The total number of mortgaged residential properties with negative equity stood at 4.1 million, or 8.1 percent, in Q3 2015. That was down 4.7 percent quarter over quarter from 4.3 million homes, or 8.7 percent, compared with Q2 2015 and down 20.7 percent year over year from 5.2 million homes, or 10.4 percent, compared with Q3 2014. For the homeowners with negative equity, the aggregate value of negative equity nationwide was $301 billion at the end of Q3 2015, declining approximately $8.1 billion or 2.6 percent from $309.1 billion in Q2 2015. The value of negative equity declined overall year-over-year from $341 billion or 11.8 percent in Q3 2014. Of the more than 50 million residential properties with a mortgage, approximately 8.9 million, or 17.6 percent, have less than 20 percent equity and 1.1 million, or 2.2 percent, have less than 5 percent equity.

A Southington dentist will pay to settle health care fraud allegations involving the filing of false claims for payments from the state’s Medicaid program, according to Attorney General George Jepsen. The attorney general alleged that while working as a dental provider in the Connecticut Medical Assistance Program (CMAP), Dr. Thomas DeRienzo, a licensed dentist practicing in the Plantsville section of Southington, engaged in a long-term scheme to submit claims to Department of Social Services (DSS) for dental services that were not provided to his CMAP patients. DeRienzo is reported to have falsely charged DSS for resin-based composite fillings that patients never received. DeRienzo agreed to pay $55,000 to resolve the False Claims Act allegations. Additionally, he has agreed to enter into a separate agreement with the DSS to be permanently barred from participation as a dentist in CMAP.

Growth Shoots

HOME CONSTRUCTION BOOSTS LENDING ACTIVITY Rebound In Development Remains Spotty

BY STEVE ADAMS | COMMERCIAL RECORD STAFF

ecovery of select residential real estate markets presented a growth opportunity in commercial lending at some Connecticut banks in 2015, as homebuilders tested the market for new construction after years of inactivity. And while vacancy rates put a damper on office construction, demand for multifamily properties, medical offices and hotels characterized commercial development hotspots, according to lenders and real estate executives. Loans to residential builders are one of the fastest-rising categories in Simsbury Bank’s commercial loan business, CEO Martin Geitz said, comprising about 12 percent of the bank’s commercial portfolio.

“Over the last 18 to 24 months in central Connecticut, we’ve really seen consumer demand for new homes come back,” he said. At $102.6 million at the end of the third quarter, commercial and municipal loans have increased 4 percent in 2015 and now comprise 34 percent of Simsbury Bank’s lending portfolio. The bank has set a goal of increasing their share to 50 percent, Geitz said. After raising $16 million in capital

10 | THE COMMERCIAL RECORD | JANUARY 2016

in November, it will use the additional capacity to support commercial loan growth and open a new retail branch in West Hartford. Growth of home building loans supplements Simsbury Bank’s traditional breadand-butter of loans for owner-occupied commercial real estate. Such borrowers are typically manufacturers or industrial service companies, and occupy at least 50 percent of the properties. The residential development rebound has been spotty, given the Connecticut housing market’s struggles to regain prerecession levels. Median single-family prices are still 17 percent below those from October 2006, according to transaction data from The Warren Group, publisher of The Commercial Record.

Builders are back in the game for custom-built homes and small subdivisions, typically ranging from five to 30 lots, Geitz said. Simsbury Bank typically finances the subdivision infrastructure and a maximum of one or two spec homes, he added. The cautious approach reflects the slow recovery of the housing market, where the strongest demand is in the inner-ring Hartford suburbs. “We’re seeing good demand close in to where the major employers are,” Geitz said. Chelsea Groton Bank also has seen lending for home construction stage a comeback over the last 12 months. Most of the demand is for contract homes built along the shoreline from Old Lyme to Stonington, CEO Michael Rauh said. The construction market had dried up since the recession but has reemerged gradually as the market continues to absorb existing inventory. The bank is expected to end the year by topping 2014’s $198.6 million commercial loan portfolio, which is driven by mortgages of owner-occupied commercial properties, Rauh said. To take advantage of loan opportunities outside of its longtime southeastern Connecticut base, Chelsea Groton opened a new Hartford County lending center on Oct. 1 in Glastonbury. The Federal Reserve Board’s early December decision to raise interest rates by a quarter of a percentage point is unlikely to have a substantial effect on lending in 2016, he said. “There has to be a fundamental business reason to want to borrow money on the commercial side, and a quarter of a point isn’t going to change that dynamic very much,” he said. “Psychologically, if you’ve been on the fence, people might say now’s the time to do something before (rates) go up again.”

Meds And Beds Drive Development Loans Demand for medical offices, assisted-living complexes and new apartments have driven demand for commercial develop-

In West Hartford, developer Charles Mallory of Greenwich Hospitality Group broke ground last summer on the 119,000-square-foot boutique Delamar Hotel, built in Blue Back Square on land leased from the town for an initial annual rent of $150,000. Financing for the $19 million project was expected to close in late December, including a $3 million loan from Simsbury Bank. In Fairfield County, investors’ favorite asset category of the moment is leased

multifamily properties with amenities, said Sean Cahill, a principal in Avison Young’s Norwalk office. Major banks, insurance companies and Wall Street conduit lenders all have shown interest in providing acquisition financing for newer apartment complexes that are 125,000 square feet or larger, he said. “There’s a belief there’s room for rent increases in the future, and they’re buying at very low cap rates,” Cahill said. “That seems to be a trend that’s continuing.” n Email: sadams@thewarrengroup.com

curve with the new rules. Before TRID, if a closing had to be delayed a few days or a week because the buyer, seller, or one of the attorneys had something come up, it wasn’t a big deal, but under TRID, they had to check to make sure the delay wouldn’t affect any fees or rate locks,

14 | THE COMMERCIAL RECORD | JANUARY 2016

which could result in changes to the closing documents and potential delays. “We haven’t seen the rule itself barring the customer from getting what they needed,” Potter said. The transition has been easy, said Paul Addamo, executive mortgage banker with William Raveis in Glastonbury – as long as borrowers are diligent about returning all the necessary paperwork on time, loans have closed in about 30 days. “We’ve been extremely busy in December, but I think we’ll still be able to close loans in 30 days in the spring market, as

long as everything goes right and buyers are prepared,” Addamo said. But challenges remain; one of the biggest has been communication between all of the different parties involved. Before TRID, attorneys, real estate agents and lenders all communicated, of course, but now communication is between those three parties and their tech providers, adding a new layer of complexity.

Partners In TRID Mortgage professionals credit their real estate partners with meeting the challenge of guiding buyers through the homebuying process – which can be stressful enough without additional layers of compliance complexity. Real estate agents are crucial to managing communication, helping to coach buyers through the process and meeting deadlines, said Patrick McGovern, vice president of sales with Connecticut Home Mortgage, adding that “excellent communication is key.”

“

bury, said that from her perspective, things haven’t changed all that much, although shepherding buyers through the process is more important than ever. “We’ve been very involved with the banks, making sure buyers had all the documents they need submitted to the loan officer so there would be no delay,” Wilcox said. “Because of that we’ve not experienced any significant delays. However, I think the loan officers may be having the majority of the stress and extra paperwork. Lenders, attorneys and title insurance companies are feeling the weight of the changes more than we are.” Wilcox said TRID is really a series of small changes that agents will learn to adopt and will ultimately become natural over time. “One thing we’ve historically been casual about is if a buyer is going to get a credit after an inspection,” Wilcox said. Now “agents need to get that information over to the mortgage company as soon as it happens. That is something Realtors

Some agents really have their stuff together; others you have to chase down. They’ll all get it eventually, or chose another profession.” — Barbara Zendzion, real estate lending manager, CorePlus Credit Union

“There’s no question that real estate agents need to be good coaches,” he said. “We need to focus on a more heightened sense of urgency on everyone’s part, though.” McGovern said overall, TRID has forced his company to improve their service for consumers. “We’ve changed almost every aspect of our process over the last year,” he said. “We found an amazing amount of efficiency. We’re going to be faster, more accurate and more compliant in the future.” Realtor Margaret Wilcox, vice president of sales of William Raveis in Glaston-

have come to recognize we have to do.” For Norwich-based CorePlus Credit Union, a focus on members meant TRID wasn’t a big change. “We’ve embraced it from the beginning,” Real Estate Lending Manager Barbara Zendzion said. “It’s all for consumer benefit. We always got the final numbers to the borrower as soon as possible, so having the numbers to them three days before closing isn’t a big deal for us. TRID added about a week to the process.” Zendzion also stressed the importance of communication between all parties and said the level of understanding of

the new rules among real estate agents varies. “Some agents really have their stuff together; others you have to chase down,” Zendzion said. “A few have called me with questions. They’ll all get it eventually, or chose another profession.”

All In The Timing While the Connecticut housing industry is pretty sure it has a handle on TRID compliance, the real test will come next year in the spring housing market. “The silver lining is that we get to work through the issues while it’s slow,” McGovern said. “We’re seeing a few issues where we’ve had to redisclose and push a closing back. I am still particularly concerned about the spring market, when we quadruple the number of closings. That will be the stress test.” He estimates that his office processed 25 to 30 loans under TRID by mid-December and is processing loans almost as quickly as it was, but the key to that is excellent communications between all parties. “We like six weeks to close for most loans, but we can often do it in less time,” McGovern said. “We’ve done a number of rush deals. I think the biggest impediment to doing them in 30-35 days is the lack of urgency and communication. If everyone is hustling and one person breaks down, that’s going to be an issue.” Potter concurred, adding that he’s glad the implementation was timed to coincide with the relatively slower fall/ winter market, giving his firm and the industry time to get used to operating under the new rules. “We feel like the timing was perfect to give us experience and come the spring market, most of the kinks will be worked out,” Potter said. “I actually think that six months from now, our company will be seeing the benefits of increased efficiencies and clarity. We’ll be faster than the old world by the summer.” n Email: jmorrison@thewarrengroup.com

GREG RENSHAW PRINCIPAL, HISTORIC CARGILL FALLS MILL LLC What’s the latest progress on Cargill Falls Mill? We’ve raised all of the capital and secured the debt and we have been working to get the bids. The numbers came in higher than we anticipated. We’re crunching those numbers and seeing where we can cut back a little bit. We’re starting construction on the hydroelectric facility. We’ve broken it up into three different contractors. What sort of interest have you had in the retail space? We’ve had two brewpubs approach us. We want to do things that are unique and different, so the goal is to add to the flavor of Putnam. I’ve been working with some brewery groups in Manhattan and different areas. We want to do something very different that’s not out there currently. The goal is to expand the market. We’ve been talking to a couple of different restaurants. We want to give them a definite timeline and completion date and then we’ll be able to fill out letters of intent. n

How did you get started in real estate? This is the only career I’ve ever had. My parents were in real estate and I started selling right out of college, where I studied real estate. What do you like about selling real estate? You’re always learning, but there are very few surprises in transactions after this long. It’s a lot of fun and you get a lot of gratification. I like to have fun, but you’ve got to be serious about it. Someone who is spending that kind of money, they want you to be serious. How has the business changed since you began selling in 1980? The amount of info you can get on the Internet is exponentially changed and empowered buyers. The Millennials want it and want it now. They like texting and instant messaging. Now you have DocuSign. I did a transaction with a woman from Argentina who I never actually met. It’s easier, but change is a funny thing. You have to learn how to communicate with them [Millennials] the way they want to be communicated with. Dealing with a buyer today, you need to know how to text and email. n

Well, the private banking aspect of it is incredible. I really focus on the asset side of an individual’s balance sheet, but we can now focus on the liability side. A lot of our clients are small business people, where the dividing line between their personal assets and their business assets is generally fairly gray; we need to be able to look at both sides of that, so the private banking addition has been fantastic. Where do you find most of your client base? We really work very closely with the clients of our commercial lenders. That’s really the link between them. Our commercial lenders really establish the relationship with the local business person. I travel all over New England and I can tell you, the businesses run the gamut, from small mom-andpops to very large corporations. n

The Nation’s Housing

UPDATED CREDIT SCORING COULD OPEN WINDOW FOR MORE BUYERS Rent, Utilities, Cellphone Payments Could Factor In

BY KENNETH R. HARNEY | WASHINGTON POST COLUMNIST

f you’ve been frustrated that the credit scoring system has prevented you from getting a home mortgage, 2016 could be a watershed year. Important changes are in the works.

The biggest players in the mortgage field are under pressure by federal regulators and Congress to adopt more inclusive and updated credit scoring models that incorporate non-banking forms of credit, such as rent, utilities and cellphone payments, to supplement what’s in consumers’ standard credit files. For people who

have “thin” files with minimal data at the national credit bureaus – or no files at all – the changes could bring tangible improvements. In mid-December, the federal agency that oversees giant mortgage investors Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ordered both companies to wrap up their plans for

18 | THE COMMERCIAL RECORD | JANUARY 2016

adopting “alternate or updated credit scores” this year and move ahead with putting them into action “as appropriate.” At roughly the same time, legislation was introduced with bipartisan support in KENNETH R. HARNEY the House called the Credit Score Competition Act. Its goal, sponsors said, is to expand access to mortgage money for large numbers of creditworthy loan applicants –

especially first-time buyers and minorities – who currently are shut out of consideration by the two companies’ credit scoring practices. “Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are the largest mortgage purchasers in the nation,” said Rep. Terri Sewell (D-Alabama), co-sponsor of the bill with Rep. Ed Royce (R-California), “but they rely on credit score models that don’t necessarily take into account something as simple as whether borrowers have paid their rent on time. Homeownership is an integral part of the American Dream that shouldn’t be out of reach for low-income, rural and minority borrowers who lack access to traditional forms of credit.” Royce said the bill would eliminate “the credit score monopoly at Fannie and Freddie,” ending “an unfair practice that stifles competition and innovation in credit scoring.”

Push For Change Both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac rely on credit scoring tools from FICO, the dominant supplier of credit analytics for the mortgage industry and best known for its three-digit FICO scores that run from 300 (terrible credit) to 850 (outstanding credit, low risk of default). The scoring models used by Fannie’s and Freddie’s automated underwriting systems have been in place for years without major updates, critics complain, and do not incorporate more recent, consumerfriendly improvements designed by FICO itself and by competitor VantageScore. FICO Score 9, introduced in the summer of 2014 but never adopted by Fannie or Freddie, provides fairer treatment for millions of consumers whose scores currently are depressed by medical bill collection accounts in their credit files or who have files with scant information because they make little or no use of the traditional banking system. Mortgage applicants whose only major negatives in their credit bureau files are medical collections stand to see their FICO scores improve by a median 25 points, according to the company. VantageScore LLC, a joint venture started by the national credit bureaus – Equifax, Experian and TransUnion – to compete with FICO, has introduced its “3.0”

model that it claims can provide scores on as many as 35 million “previously unscoreable consumers.” The new score is widely used by banks and credit card companies but is frozen out at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The Vantage scoring model incorporates information on a consumer’s rent, utilities and telecommunications payment histories that get reported to one or more of the national credit bureaus. Studies have shown that inclusion of alternative credit data such as rents can significantly improve consumers’ scoring outcomes. One study by Experian found that out of a sample of 20,000 tenants living in government-subsidized apartment buildings, 100 percent of previously “unscoreable” tenants became scoreable once their rent payment histories were used in calculating their credit scores. Furthermore, the results showed that 97 percent had scores in the “prime” (average 688) and “non-prime” (average 649). Both score categories could help qualify these current renters to obtain home mortgages, provided their income, employment and debt ratios meet Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac underwriting require-

ments. But that won’t happen until both companies update their scoring models. What’s the prospect for that? Fannie Mae officials say scoring system changes involve significant costs, not only for the company itself but for the lenders who sell them mortgages. But when Fannie’s and Freddie’s regulator – and maybe Congress – tell them to get moving on it, the odds increase that something good will happen, sooner rather than later. n Ken Harney’s email address is kenharney@ earthlink.net.

A Look Ahead

RISING RATES, CHANGING DEMOGRAPHICS SHAPE MORTGAGE MARKET IN 2016

Much Of The Challenges, Troubles Of 2015 Continue In New Year

“

Winners in the real estate and real estate finance industry this year, and beyond, will have clear and articulated strategies to serve Millennials and diverse communities.”

BY KEITH POLANSKI | SPECIAL TO THE COMMERCIAL RECORD

here are a lot of potential influences on the mortgage and real estate markets at any given time. While many of 2016’s issues are merely the continuation of 2015’s technology, regulation, rising prices – there are some new trends of which lenders need to be aware. Below are some of the challenges mortgage professionals will face this year. Funding volume: Industry loan funding volume is anticipated to fall by about 10 percent overall nationwide. As interest rates are expected to rise, the decline will be primarily in the drop of refinance volume. Though overall loan volume is expected to decline, loan funding volume from purchase transactions KEITH POLANSKI are expected to rise nationally 10 percent, and even further in some of the strongest housing markets in the country. The mortgage bankers and depositories that have strong, purchase-focused origination platforms should outperform competitors and could be up year-over-year by better than 20 percent to 25 percent. Marketshare: According to the most recent Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data (2014, released in October 2015), there is a continuing trend towards independent mortgage bankers (IMBs) taking marketshare from deposit-based commercial and retail banking institutions, both big and small. Over the seven-year period of the most recent data (2008-2014), IMBs’ marketshare is up 71 percent and the depository share is down 29 percent. I suspect this trend will accelerate as loan volume mix of refinance versus purchase transactions normalizes to its historical data norm of 65 percent to 70 percent purchases, and 30 percent to 35 percent refinances by volume. Credit unions will also increase their marketshare (up more than 33 percent during the aforementioned period) as both IMBs and CUs remain focused on the consumer and not the transaction.

Further regulatory pressures will also push the larger depositories away from this business line as more and more enforcement actions by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the Department of Justice are announced and made public. Rising interest rates: The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) recent decision to increase the overnight lending rate by 25 basis points. This is the first time the rate has increased in over seven years. While this well telegraphedheadline was widely expected by most economists and financial market pundits, its impact has been primarily muted. Recent geopolitical turmoil, especially in the Middle East, will probably give the FOMC pause on further rate increases in the near term. However, these marginal increases in mortgage lending rates will be a positive for the industry and real estate market. The analytical data shows that a 1 percent increase in rates from their current levels would cause a “pull-forward effect” on homebuying, as consumers “get off the fence” and make purchase decisions prior to rates moving higher. In fact, both the Mortgage Bankers Association and Fannie Mae forecasts show a 10 percent increase in purchase transaction volume with a nominal increase of current mortgage rates of about 1 percent. Regulatory headaches: I think everyone in the mortgage industry is still shaking off a regulatory hangover in the New Year. The cumulative “risk on pressure” of the CFPB’s regulatory rulemaking through enforcement actions and not the normal, transparent process has the industry constantly looking over its shoulder. Whether it is the extremely vague and poorly writ-

ten TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure Rule (TRID) that went into effect on Oct. 3, the use of Disparate Impact legal theory (recently confirmed by the Supreme Court), the lingering effect of the DoddFrank Act and the recent use of the False Claims Act, among many more, everyone in the industry is unsure how to run their business in a compliant way – even with immense resources being spent to be so. The mortgage companies and depositories that stay keenly focused on these issues will see growth in their business. Big data: More and more forward-leaning companies will use “Big Data” to predict consumer-buying behavior, household formation and migration, wage and employment stats, and – possibly most important – fraud and red flag data to assist in loan underwriting and risk mitigation. Technology remains an important, ongoing investment for all players in this space. Millennials and minorities: Winners in the real estate and real estate finance industry this year, and beyond, will have clear and articulated strategies to serve Millennials and diverse communities. Hispanic-American and African-American homebuyers, along with Millennials leaving their parents’ basements, will be the driving force in household formation over the next 10 years. Your business and your workforce will need to be representative of this fact. This looks to be a good year in the mortgage industry. With homes sales and mortgage applications near or above industry norms, a healthy regional economy and favorable rate environment, real estate professionals have every reason to be optimistic heading into the New Year. Individuals and organizations who recognize the catalysts of home formation in 2016 and beyond – Millennial and minority homebuyers – and devise demographic-specific tactics and strategies to embrace these groups, will position themselves best to enjoy a prosperous 2016. n Keith Polaski is COO and co-founder of radius financial group inc., a private, full-service mortgage lender in based in Norwell, Massachusetts.
