HAMP Missteps to Prolong Home Price Declines

Moody's Investors Service is forecasting another 8% decline in home prices over the course of 2010 before a bottom in residential property values is reached, largely because of the "underwhelming" success of the administration's Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP). The ratings agency predicts a peak-to-trough drop of 34% in national home prices. That's actually an improvement over Moody's estimates last month, when the agency was expecting a total peak-to-trough decline of 37%.

However, it's the duration of depreciation that's the headline grabber. Previously, Moody's analysts were predicting the price floor to be reached in the third quarter of this year. Now they say it won't be hit until the end of the fourth quarter. The reason for the extended freefall, Moody's says, is the timing of foreclosure sales hitting the market. Despite the administration's efforts to stem the tide of foreclosures, Moody's said in a January report that its analysis shows that only 400,000 to one million homes will be saved through HAMP. The agency's projections fall significantly short of the federal government's promise to keep three to four million homeowners out of foreclosure.

Employment Report affect Mortgage Rates

How Did The Employment Report Affect Mortgage Rates?

Mortgage rates improved a few basis points yesterday as panic set in on Wall Street. Headline news called attention to a developing crisis of confidence in the European Union where Greece, Spain, and Portugal all face ballooning budget deficits and rising government borrowing costs. Fear caused a global stock market sell off which led nervous investors to reallocate funds into what is considered to be the safest investment in the word, US Treasuries. This "flight to safety" into the bond market helped mortgage-backed securities prices move higher which allowed lenders to pass along slightly lower mortgage rates. While improvements were noted,many originators were expecting more aggressive loan pricing from lenders, but as has been the case over the past few weeks, 4.75% continues to be the best rate available. (This is the most aggressive quote in the market and will require borrowers to discount points.)


The Bureau of Labor Statistics released the monthly Employment Situation report this morning. This is the single most important piece of monthly economic data released to the market. Since consumer spending accounts for the vast majority of our economic growth, market participants track jobs as a way to gauge consumer demand and economic activity. If unemployment is moving higher, more Americans are without a job and therefore without stable income. This drains consumer demand and forces companies to keep costs low to stay in line with falling revenues. High unemployment is bad for stocks, whats bad for stocks is usually good for bonds and mortgage rates. To read more...

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation..

What does today's data mean for REALTORS® and consumers?
Today's data on the economy have reassured markets. The good news began with the Senate's confirmation of Chairman Bernanke yesterday, and continued today with the GDP release and Consumer Sentiment.

Reported GDP growth of 5.7 percent exceeded economists' expectations, is a significant improvement over the third quarter's 2.2 percent growth, and marks the second consecutive quarter of growth after 4 consecutive quarters of decline. Continued growth will eventually lead to hiring.

Positive consumer expectations for the future and assessment of current conditions led to the highest reading on consumer sentiment in the past two years. Consumer responses to questions about their own situation suggest that they do not expect overall economic improvements to translate quickly into new hiring and additional income. Consumer expectations about their personal situation may translate into spending that is lower than in a typical recovery.

The Bureau of Economic Analysis reported that GDP grew at an annualized rate of 5.7 percent in the fourth quarter 2009 from the third quarter. Inventory investment, increasing exports, and personal consumer spending led to GDP growth in the fourth quarter. As cash-for-clunker-motivated spending on durable goods phased out in the fourth quarter, consumer spending increased on non-durable goods and services.

Today's estimate is the "advance" estimate, one that is issued on the basis of data that is incomplete or subject to revision. While over long periods of time, there is not consistent bias in advance estimates, recent revisions have been more notable. For example, GDP estimates for the third quarter of 2009 were revised down to 2.2 percent from the "advance" estimate of 3.5 percent growth.

Consumer sentiment rose in January to 74.4, its highest level in two years. Not only do expectations for the future remain high, the index for current economic conditions is at its highest level since March 2008. While consumers are optimistic about the overall economy, the report indicated that expectations for their personal finances were not quite as rosy. Twice as many consumers reported income declines as increases.

The Senate voted yesterday afternoon to confirm Chairman Ben Bernanke to another term at the helm of the Federal Reserve. Chairman Bernanke had come under fire for what some argued was the Fed's role in causing the recent crisis, and some argued earlier in the week that his confirmation could be in doubt. Ultimately, his creative endeavors to combat the crisis, including the Fed's purchase of mortgage backed securities to hold down mortgage interest rates, seem to have carried him through to another four-year term.

Spending on Web Ads to drop in 2010

A new report from Borrell Associates estimates that real estate agents, brokers, developers, and management firms will fork out $7.2 billion in online advertising this year. The number represents a 4 percent decline from last year-significant considering that Internet advertising by the sector slipped just 1 percent from 2008 to 2009 despite the housing market slump. While Web advertising will drop, the amount of money devoted to real estate interests on overall advertising will actually rise about 2 percent. That suggests, according to Borrell President Colby Atwood, that property-industry advertisers will focus on other avenues. "Advertisers across the board are beginning to flatten out the amount of money that they put into advertising per se, and they are increasing their investment in promotions," he explains. "Once companies learn about how to contact an individual, if they're savvy-and many of them are becoming this way-they remarket directly to that individual using e-mails and other directed forms of promotions."Source: ClickZ News, Douglas Quenqua (01/14/09)

Cities with the fastest-falling home prices

For many cities, home prices are still falling, according to Forbes.com. For its list of cities with the fastest-falling home prices, Forbes used Altos Research's January market update, which looks at asking prices, inventory and days on the market single-family homes--but not condominiums--in 27 of the country's closely watched real estate markets.
It uses homes for sale in each city's Metropolitan Statistical Area--a census-defined area that the federal government uses to collect statistics--for its data.

Here they are:

1. San Diego-Carlsbad-San Marcos, Calif.
2. Salt Lake City, Ut.
3. Charlotte-Gastonia-Concord, N.C.-S.C.
4. Denver-Aurora, Co.
5. Portland-Vancouver-Beaverton, Or.-Wa.
6. Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta, Ga.
7. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif.
8. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, Calif.
9. Austin-Round Rock, Texas
10. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, Wash.

Miami is the only city of the 27 markets Altos tracks that saw asking prices rise over the last three months. Prices there were up 2% from October to a median price of $494,992. The reasons for this are mixed: While the numbers are somewhat promising, Miami's good fortune is also a reflection of just how long it took for the hard-hit Florida housing market to regain its footing. And even with the recent upturn, it's the city where homes sit on the market for the longest by far. Homes here stay for sale for a median of eight months. Not to mention Altos' analysis only reflects single-family homes--not condominiums, a section of the Miami's real estate market that has yet to stabilize. Source: Forbes.com

I believe the end is in site for Wisconsin, but over the next 12 months we will see home prices continue to drop here. There should be a turn around in 2011. - Jerry Grosenick with Exit Realty XL in Germantown, Wisconsin.

Well, if you can afford the move, now is the time. Interest are at a historical low, the selection of homes is large and the US government is giving the 1st time home buyer an $8,000 credit. Oh, did I mention if you currently own a home and have lived in it for 5 years, you also may qualify for a $6,500 credit? WOW!! IF you sold your home to a first time buyer and turned around and bought your dream home, the government is contributing approximately $14,500 towards making it all possible. Jerry Grosenick of Exit Realty XL in Germantown, Wisconsin is recommending that anyone who can afford to move now, to make the move. None of these conditions: interest rates, large home selection and government credit will last much longer.
