2011 Arizona Real Estate Data (Through August)

Thu, 06 Oct 2011 18:50:51 -0700

The outside temperatures have finally cooled down but our local real estate market seems to be heating up. Unlike the uptick that we saw last spring when the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit creative a false sense of growth, the data now shows real positive changes. Since January of this year, the volume of active listings has consistently declined while the number of sales has increased. Sales peaked in May and June of this year and they have remained strong going into the fall. In August, 46% of single family homes on the market sold within 30 days of being listed, compared to January of this year when only 32% of homes sold within that same time frame.

I am consistently seeing multiple offers on properties listed below $250,000 and that remains where the bulk of the activity exists. It is true that many of these sales are going to investors. In the past, investors were part of the problem as so many people jumped into real estate with little money down and had no incentive to keep the properties when the market declined. Now investors are paying cash for properties - in fact 40% of all sales recorded by the Arizona Regional Multiple Listing Serivce in August were all cash transactions. Investors and individuals are moving their investments out of the volatile stock market and seeking refuge in something safer and more tangible. After long five years it seems that our Cinderella market may finally be headed for the ball!

The Importance of Doing A Final Walk-Through

Thu, 06 Oct 2011 18:39:43 -0700

Final Walk-Through

Several weeks or even months can pass between the day you put an offer on a house and the day that you close escrow and take possession of it. In between a lot can happen that can affect the condition of the property, such as a leaky roof, a dripping faucet or stains on the carpet.

The AAR Residential Resale Real Estate Purchase Contract states that “Seller warrants and shall maintain and repair the Premisis so that at the earlier of possession or COE: (i) all heating, cooling, mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems (including swimming pool and/or spa, motors, filer systems, cleaning systems and heaters, if any), free standing range/oven, and built-in appliances will be in working condition”.

It is imperative that you and your REALTOR® do a final walkthrough prior to closing to assess the condition of the property to ensure that it is in relatively the same condition as the day that you signed the contract. As you walk through the home with your agent, use a checklist as a guide to help you make sure everything is working properly and note any questions that you might have. Below are just a few items in a typical checklist.

Plumbing: Flush all toilets and check for leaks. Do they keep running after they flush? Run the sink and shower faucets and check for proper drainage. Also run the water long enough to ensure that the water heater is functioning.

Electrical: Make sure the utilities are on, especially if the home has been vacant for a long time. Operate all of the lights, switches and ceiling fans. Verify that the oven, microwave and dishwasher all turn on and function properly.

Heating and Air Conditioning: Use the thermostat to operate the heating and cooling systems and check all of the registers.

Outside: Walk around the property and verify that all of the landscaping is in similar condition as the day you wrote the contract. Also look for broken windows or damaged stucco. If there is a pool, check the motor and other related equipment for leaks.

General: Open and close all windows & doors to verify that they operate properly. Look for stains on the ceilings, as this might indicate a leaking roof.

The final walkthrough is also the time to verify that any repairs that the seller agreed to do as part of your inspection period were completed. As per the AAR Residential Resale Real Estate Purchase Contract “If Seller agrees in writing to correct item disapproved, Seller shall correct the items, complete any repairs in a workmanlike manner and deliver any paid receipts evidencing the corrections and repairs to Buyer three (3) days prior to COE Date”. If you hired a home inspector, they will typically do a re-inspection for a small fee. Depending on the agreed upon repairs this may be a wise option to take advantage of.

Verifying the condition of probably one of the largest investments you will ever make, prior to signing those final closing documents is one of the most important actions you will take in the entire home buying process.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE ARIZONA REAL ESTATE MARKET

Thu, 09 Jun 2011 13:07:34 -0700

Market Summary for the Beginning of June

It feels almost like the inverse of 2005.

In the second half of 2005, supply rose dramatically but no-one seemed to take any notice. There was a widely believed myth that prices could never go down. Between March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2006, active listings rose from 8,394 to 45,729 (up 445%) creating a huge glut of homes for sale. Yet average sales prices continued to rise throughout this period, up 28.6% from $146.98 to $189.05 per sq. ft. Meanwhile demand fell 16.5%, with sales per month dropping from 8,490 to 7,093. It was as if everyone believed the laws of supply and demand no longer applied. Of course we found out by 2007 that supply and demand really did matter and the bubble burst explosively in 2008 causing untold damage to the economy and family finances.

It's a question of timing. Supply and demand do control pricing, but in real estate there is a very long time delay between cause and effect. That timing can be extended even further by sentiment. In 2005 sentiment was off-the-charts positive - "irrational exuberance" ruled the roost and caused people to make decisions that in hindsight look crazy. Not just homeowners and developers, but especially lenders and the investors who fueled the credit surplus. Those few of us who tried to warn people in early 2006 that prices would fall dramatically were treated a bit like Harold Camping predicting the end times.

The opposite seems to be happening now. Sentiment is very negative. Everyone seems convinced that prices can only fall further, yet demand is rising and supply has been falling like a rock dropped off a cliff for 6 months now. It comes down to one simple fact: people believe what they want to believe. The facts do not exert a significant influence.

Here at the Cromford Report, we only deal with facts and figures, not beliefs, so here is the market update.

Sales - We are currently recording 9,814 sales in May. This is up 3.5% over April and up 10% over May 2010. This is a very strong sales total because in May 2011 sales are not being boosted by the government bribe (sorry, tax credit) that applied in 2010 for buyers of owner-occupied homes.

Pending Sales - At 13,268 on June 1, pending sales are down 0.4% compared with May 1 but up 6.7% compared with June 1, 2010. Again an extremely strong indicator of demand. In 2010 demand fell sharply during the summer after the tax credit expired, but there is no sign so far that the same will happen in 2011.

Active Listings - At 31,346 on June 1, active listings are 9.4% below May 1 and 23.3% below June 1, 2010. Supply is clearly falling fast. However this understates the situation because a large proportion of the active listings already have a contract against them. In fact there were 7,737 AWC (active with contingent contract) listings as of June 1, 2.6% higher than the very high level we saw on June 1, 2010. If we exclude these AWC listings, we have only 23,609 active listings, down 12.7% in a month and down 28.8% compared with last year. This is almost 60% down from the peak of October 2007.

Supply Versus Demand - The average months supply (active listings divided by monthly sales rate) for the period Jan 1, 2001 to June 1, 2011 is 5.9 months. Right now we have a 3.2 month supply. Yet we read everywhere that there is a "glut of foreclosed home on the market". What we are reading may have been true in November last year. It is not true now. In fact available supply is really even tighter than this. If we only count active listings that don't have a contract the months supply number drops to just 2.4 months. Anyone who thinks this is a "glut" is not living in the real world. They should just ask anyone who is actually trying to buy a home right now. Competition is intense, and not just for bank-owned homes and trustee sales. It is also heating up for short sales and normal listings. If you are trying to buy a home that is at all desirable and is priced at market or below, expect multiple bids. If you are a seller, then you only need to price realistically and your home well sell quickly.

(All the above numeric information is for "all areas & types" within ARMLS.)

Records Being Set

In Maricopa County, May saw the largest ever number of distressed homes disappear from inventory. Pending foreclosures fell by 3,394 homes while REO inventory fell by 971 residential properties.

For Maricopa County, May gave us the highest ever percentage of out-of-state buyers. 29.9% of sales went to non-Arizona residents. The average between January 1999 and May 2011 was 11.9%. The absolute count was also a record - 2,648 homes sold to out-of-state buyers. The average since Jan 1999 is 1,446.

For Maricopa County, May saw the highest ever number of foreclosures selling direct to third parties at the courthouse steps. The record set was 1,476, 33% of all the trustee sales.

Paradise Valley

Exceptionally strong market activity is occurring in Paradise Valley where sales are now averaging 52 per month compared with 31 last year at this time. Inventory is down to 319 from a peak of 581 in April 2009 when sales were averaging only 9 per month.

Prices

After a bump upwards between mid April and mid May, average sales price per sq. ft. is back down a little at the beginning of June. Although we are still some 2% to 3% above the market bottom in January and February this year, in most places prices have not yet responded to the huge changes in supply and demand. Why not? Please refer to what happened in 2005, but with everything upside down. The rules of supply and demand have not been lifted. Of course, you don't have to believe me, but please don't say I didn't warn you.

Why You Should Buy A Home Now!

Thu, 17 Feb 2011 13:42:38 -0800

"I am waiting for the market to bottom out". This is the most common statement that I hear when consulting with potential buyers. While it is always best to follow the old saying "Buy Low, Sell High", there are multiple variables to consider. First, we won't know when the real estate market has hit the bottom until it starts to come back up. Second, if the housing market were to decrease by an additional five percent, and interest rates rose by two percent, your monthly mortgage payment would be higher than if you purchased today.

Purchase Price	Interest Rate	Monthly Payment (P/I Only)
$1,000,000	5.00%	$5,368
$950,000	7.00%	$6,320

$500,000	5.00%	$2,684
$475,000	7.00%	$3,160

$300,000	5.00%	$1,610
$285,000	7.00%	$1,896

Purchasing now will also give you one more year of equity build up in your home as well has one more year of homeownership tax breaks.

While it is true that lending guidelines have tightened, (you actually have to be able to prove that you have income, assets & a good credit score!), don't let this discourage you. There are many great programs for first time home buyers. FHA has recently maximum loan limit is $346,250 and only requires a 3.50% cash down payment. If you & the property you are purchasing qualify, you can even ask the seller to assist you with up to six percent of your closing costs and pre-paids! Now is an excellent time to get into the market.

7 Reasons to Own a Home

Thu, 17 Feb 2011 13:36:25 -0800

In general, a person's home is their single biggest investment. Purchasing a home can be a rewarding experience if it is done with the right expectations. Here are just seven of the many advantages to owning your own home.

1. Tax breaks: The U.S. Tax Code lets you deduct the interest you pay on your mortgage, the property taxes you pay, as well as some of the costs involved in buying and selling your home.

2. Gains. Real Estate, should not be looked at as a short term investment, it is cyclical, but over the long term is has appreciated. Nationally, housing has appreciated every year since 1997 (with the exception of 2007) According to the Office of Federal Housing Oversight.

3. Equity. Money paid for rent is money that you'll never see again, but mortgage payments let you build equity ownership interest in your home.

4. Savings. Over the long run, building equity in your home is a ready-made savings plan. And when you sell, you can generally take up to $250,000 ($500,000 for a married couple) as gain without owing any federal income tax.

5. Predictability. Unlike rent, your mortgage payments don't go up over the years (assuming you finance your home using a fixed rate mortgage), keep in mind that property taxes and insurance costs will rise.

6. Freedom. The home is yours. You can decorate any way you want and be able to benefit from your investment for as long as you own the home.

7. Stability. Remaining in one neighborhood for several years gives you a chance to participate in community activities, lets you and your family establish lasting friendships, and offers your children the benefit of educational continuity.

A "Do and Don't" List for First-Time Homebuyers

Thu, 17 Feb 2011 13:33:01 -0800

A "DO AND DON'T" LIST FOR FIRST-TIME HOMEBUYERS

For most people, buying a home is the most significant investment of their lives. And in spite of the doubt and confusion clouding both the financial markets and news headlines, 2008 presents many genuine real estate opportunities - especially for first-time buyers. On average, housing inventory is up, prices are stable and historical data demonstrates that purchasing a home has proven a sound long-term financial investment. However, first-time homebuyers are often understandably anxious when it comes time to making what could be the largest purchase in their life. Here is a simple "do and don't" list to make the process easier for everyone dreaming of homeownership.

DO:

DO utilize free online tools to arm you with as much knowledge as possible. For example, the Home Price Comparison Index available at http://www.coldwellbanker.com/ offers buyers a way to compare average housing costs in over 400 U.S. markets.

DO take time to access and closely review your credit score. A sound financial track record and solid credit score can help lock in a loan and lower interest rates. Checking your records with a fine-tooth comb in advance will also ensure that you catch any errors ahead of time, as well as help you better understand how lenders may perceive you.

DO explore mortgage pre-approval. Getting this early green light will help others involved with your purchase that you are serious about home ownership - and well-qualified.

DO line up your "all-star" team of professionals before game day. A team of experienced professionals will be key to making the home buying process simple and seamless. Start by interviewing and selecting a REALTOR® who you "connect" with. That REALTOR® should also be able to help you indentify suitable mortgage lenders, home inspectors, Title & Escrow Compaies and others who play a role in the process.

DO anticipate your future needs and buy for lifestyle. Try to anticipate how long you'll live in your next home and plan for major lifestyle changes when possible. What may make a perfect starter home for a couple might not work as well when children come into the picture. Remember, people move for lifestyle reasons and your first home will likely not be your last.

DO hone in on your housing priorities. Your ideal home may have a porch, a pool and five full baths. But before you start looking, make sure to separate your "must-haves" from your "nice to haves," so you know where you can compromise to meet your budget.

DON'T:

DON'T fall in love with the first house or neighborhood you see. That grand Tuscan with the picturesque view may win your heart at first glance, but don't fall in love too fast. You need to keep an open mind to make sure you find the right fit for all your needs. At the end of your search, it may turn out that the condo that's closer for your commute is a better bet all-around.

DON'T buy beyond what you can afford. It's easy to fall into that all-you-can-eat attitude when it comes to your first home purchase. You "want it all" when it comes to size, amenities, location, etc. But remember that your eyes may have a larger appetite than your wallet. Make sure that the down payment, closing costs, monthly expenses and taxes are truly within your income and savings range before you sign on the dotted line.

DON'T treat your home the way you treat your stock portfolio. It's unrealistic and unwise to expect your housing investment to appreciate as quickly as you'd hope for your high-risk bonds. Buying for lifestyle, as opposed to trying to turn a quick profit, will help ensure that you are viewing home purchasing and ownership in the right context.

DON'T try to time the market. By the time most consumers sense a major real estate or financial market shift, the tables have typically already turned. Instead of waiting for a slim and unreliable window of time - and potentially missing out on the perfect home - buyers should focus on their own lifestyles and buy when the time is truly right for them.

DON'T jump into an exotic or confusing mortgage. When it comes to downpayments and mortgages, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Be sure to read carefully through every aspect of the proposed agreements to fully understand your end of the bargain. For instance, what seems like an attractive rate now may balloon exponentially a few years down the road. So arm yourself with information and don't be afraid to ask questions.

DON'T underestimate the value of a trustworthy real estate agent's on-the-ground expertise. While being a savvy buyer and doing one's homework will help on the road to homeownership, a local expert with years of negotiating experience is invaluable when it comes to scouting out the perfect home - and closing the deal.

Energy Efficient - Eco Friendly Custom Home Near Las Sendas

4BR/4.5BA Single Family House

offered at $975,000

Year Built	2005
Sq Footage	5,052
Bedrooms	4
Bathrooms	4 full, 2 partial
Floors	1
Parking	4 Car garage
Lot Size	1.03 acres
HOA/Maint	$0 per month

DESCRIPTION

Nestled in the desert but close to everything, this beautiful 5055 square foot single level, solid concrete energy efficient home is the opportunity of a lifetime. It is located 1 1/2 miles from the new Loop 202 Red Mountain Freeway. This puts it just minutes from the airport and many recreational areas like the Salt River and Saguaro Lake. This home features four bedroom suites, six bathrooms, a low maintenance swimming pool, and a 1500 square foot dream garage with a half bathroom, all on a fully landscaped 1 acre+ lot with no H.O.A. The home is constructed from solid concrete using "insulated concrete forms" which feature 3" of Styrofoam insulation on both the interior and exterior walls over 6" of rebar reinforced concrete for a rock solid house with an effective insulation rating of R-70. This means that while other people are paying $500-$600 a month for utilities, this home averages $200-$300 per month for all utilities. Because of the concrete construction the structure is virtually fireproof with all interior walls framed with steel studs and a self extinguishing foam roof. Along with peace of mind for your family's safety this also entitles you to reduced insurance premiums. With no home owners association looking over your shoulder and only Maricopa county zoning laws, feel free to bring your RV, trailers, quads, or anything else you would like to store on "your" property. The oversize driveway includes a RV gate and extra room for storage. The home is 95% ADA compliant and is wheelchair friendly. This makes the home perfect for multi generational families or families with disabilities.

There are two master suites featuring jetted tubs, his and hers sinks, walk in showers, and private walk in closets. Each master suite has its own exit to the covered patio and pool area. The other two bedrooms are also bedroom suites with their own private full bath and walk in closet. Bedroom # 3 also includes a private entrance off the front courtyard that can be used for an office entrance or separate entrance for guests, rather than the main entrance of the house. The home features three covered patios on the North, South and East sides of the property so that there is always a comfortable place to sit and relax regardless of the season or time of day. The home has Travertine tile throughout in all traffic and main areas with only the bedrooms being carpeted.

No expense was spared on the finish materials in this home. The cabinets in every room were handcrafted from Alder by a third generation cabinet maker from Tucson. The cabinets feature solid wood construction with 7-ply boxes and drawers. The interiors are all finished maple. Compare that to the particle board cabinet boxes and vinyl melamine interiors you will find on most other houses in this price range. All counter tops including the laundry room are 3cm thick slab granite. The interior doors are all solid core Alder wood construction with the exterior doors being Therma True brand composite doors for energy efficiency. The windows are Milgard brand vinyl windows with upgraded "Low E 140" glass for the utmost heat rejection. The house has windows in virtually every room including the closets assuring natural light throughout. The bath fixtures are all Kohler or Jacuzzi. Even the bathtubs in the secondary bedrooms are cast iron 5 1/2 foot soaking tubs instead of the cheap steel tubs you will find in most other homes.

No expense was spared on landscaping either. The 1+ acre lot is fully xeriscaped with water efficient native plants. Many 36" and 48" box trees were brought in to provide a look that is years ahead of most other yards. All plants that require irrigation are on a water efficient drip system. Both the front and rear yards are accented with landscape lighting. The swimming pool was built by Cameo Pools and features an infloor cleaning system, salt water chlorine system, LED lighting, uplit fountains, and an upgraded PebbleTech interior. Unlike most swimming pools you will encounter, this pool is virtually maintenance free. All you need to do is check the PH balance of the water weekly and clean the filter once a year. I commissioned an artist in California to create one of a kind anechoic glass tiles in a tropical fish motif that are inlaid in the bottom of the pool. The pool also features three gas fire pits behind it, and matching built in planters that flank either side creating a real sense of privacy. There is approximately 2000 square feet of concrete decking for entertaining and a 500 square foot view deck. From the view deck you can enjoy breathtaking 360 degree views of the surrounding mountains and downtown city lights. You can watch no less than twelve different fireworks shows on Independence Day without ever leaving the comfort of home.

This home is absolutely perfect in every way. It is ready for you to move in and enjoy immediately. Much care has been taken to use low maintenance materials so that you can spend your time relaxing. Now is the time to purchase this beautiful home for yourself and your family. Interest rates are historically low and this homes price is lower than you will ever be able to buy it again. It is priced competitively with other homes in the area that are built with much cheaper materials. Compare this home to similar ones in the area and you will agree that this home gives you more for your money and costs less to own that other comparable homes.
