The other side of the new is Foreclosures again nationality 1 in 7 mortgage holders are in distress at lest behind by one payment.  However the banks are working on improving the short sale process and make some loan modification to stem the tided of some of these bank own homes flooding the market…  In the Antelope Valley we are see a tricle of bank owe home coming on to the market...

Real Estate Trends - Palmdale, Lancaster, Quartz Hill and the Greater Antelope Valley November 18, '09
As we move closer to the Holidays we expect to see a slight drop off in activity as buyers ready themselves for Christmas shopping.  Looking back at December 2008 we did see a small seasonal trend.  With the low available inventory this year might be a bit larger but not by much.

This could be a great opportunely for buyers who are having to fight to have their offers to be win.  With the anticipated slowdown savvy buyers could really win big…

According to MLS data for the month of August, existing home sales were up +7.7% vs.  July the prior month, for the first 8 months of 2009, versus the same period in 2008, home sales are up +103%.  The inventory of homes is at about ½ the historical norm at 1,100.  The norm is between 2,000 and 2,500.  The average sales price in August was $133,166.  This is up slightly from July, but down 30% versus one year ago.

Realtors say that homes priced over $150,000 are beginning to sell again.  Local realtors say that foot traffic in the $200,000 to $300,000 range is also starting to improve.  The existing home market above $400,000 though, is very slow, almost no foot traffic at all.  Add it all up, and 75% to 80% of all sales are on foreclosed properties.  The low end of the housing market is flooded with young couples seeking their first home and investors seeking rentals.  The unanswered question that has been overhanging the housing market all year is the often rumored "second wave" of foreclosures.  With supply still very thin, multiple offers on properties are still common.  In the high desert area, 86% of its residents can afford to buy an entry level home, versus the entire state at 67%.  Statewide, supply has also fallen, now down to 4.1 months versus 7.6 months at this time one year ago.  The real problem with shrinking inventory is at the lower end, the entry level portion of the market.  In a survey done by Cal Asso of Realtors (CAR), 40% of the first time buyers say they would NOT have purchased their home if the tax credit was not offered.  

Comment:  Banks continue to hold back housing supply, which is manipulating prices by creating an auction atmosphere.  Thus the 10-15 offers on entry level homes.  The time to toughen appraisal regulations was when home prices and lender risk were high.  That would have been back in 2006.  But now that home values have fallen 50%, the risk of a bad appraisal causing a foreclosure, is so low, it's almost non-existent.  As the market is now, the new appraisal regulations are not helping and are only hurting those that can really afford to buy a home. 

If I didn't know better, I would think that the banks are trying to control the rate of the housing recovery and also control its price appreciation.  How else can you explain the banks holding back supply when they are getting 10-15 offers per home, and at the same time, the average home price is only going up 1.5% per month?  The banks, for whatever reason, are controlling, and holding back, the rate of the housing recovery.

Recently reported Fannie Mae is giving distressed borrowers yet another way to avoid foreclosure, they would allow eligible homeowners to rent their own homes… The program lets home owners shift the deed back to their lender and then sign a lease to remain in the home called a Deed for Lease.

The endeavor is targeted at borrowers with mortgages owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae who do not qualify for or can not get a loan modification. Borrowers must live in the home as their primary residence and must be released from any secondary liens.

We believe this if successful could reduced the onslaught of Fannie Mae owned homes hitting the market, Janet O'Brian Short Salehowever only time will tell if will work…
