The National Housing Market is showing positive improvement! The main trend to call attention to is the Seller’s Market. Home Prices continue to rise steadily above year-ago levels, and housing DEMAND HAS STRONGLY PICKED UP, resulting in low-levels of inventory in many regions across the Country. NAR President Gary Thomas claims, “The typical home is selling nearly four weeks faster than it did a year ago.” Now marks one of the most favorable times in market history to buy or sell a home. There is an urgency to buy now while mortgage RATES ARE AT RECORD LOWS and before home prices increase more significantly.

“Tight inventory is a major factor in the Market,” states NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun. “Buyer Traffic is continuing to pick-up, while Seller Traffic is holding steady. In fact, BUYER TRAFFIC IS 40% ABOVE A YEAR AGO.” Inventory is low for a number of reasons: Housing demand has picked-up, Banks have slowed the pace of Foreclosures, and many Homeowners who wish to sell their Homes simply cannot because they do not have enough Equity to make a down payment on their next Home. However, as Home prices continue to rise and more people can afford to sell their Homes, inventory levels will increase. Mortgage Rates are still low, but have risen slightly this month to around 3.56%. Last month, NAR President Gary Thomas stated that even though INTEREST RATES SHOULD GRADUALLY RISE as the year progresses, they are still expected to stay below 4% during the first half of the year.
What This Means: If you have ANY intentions of coming into the Market...better do in NOW, this is a Cyclical-Industry Ladies and Gentleman what was down WILL come up.

WASHINGTON - Congressman Steven Palazzo, R-Biloxi, along with Louisiana Representatives Bill Cassidy and Cedric Richmond, and Michael Grimm of New York, announced passage of an amendment to the FY14 Homeland Security Appropriations bill today that would delay scheduled increases to flood insurance rates due to kick in on coastal residents later this year.The amendment blocks the implementation of Section 207 of the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act. "The passage of this amendment is an enormous victory for the Mississippi Gulf Coast" said Palazzo. "Thousands of people who built back after Hurricane Katrina and those now building back after Hurricane Sandy are facing steep flood insurance rate increases under current law. "This amendment would provide time for FEMA to study the affordability of flood insurance program changes, providing much-needed relief for homeowners and businesses across the Gulf Coast." The Biggert-Waters Act, which was meant to overhaul the in-debt program and make it self-sufficient, was signed into law last July. The act ends flood insurance subsidies to homeowners by 2014 and generally increases premiums as flood insurance risk maps are updated. The new rates are meant to reflect true flood risk, but many have argued the price hikes will devastate property owners. There has been NATIONAL debate over how to handle the increases. "The reforms under the Biggert-Waters Act have created flood insurance rates which could destroy south Louisiana homes," Cassidy said. "They would also be devastating for COASTAL COMMUNITIES AROUND THE COUNTRY. This amendment will block those rate increases and give us time to carefully modify the Biggert-Waters Act." According to Grimm, "There are Staten Islanders who have lost everything in Superstorm Sandy, with years to go before their lives return to normal. Now they are up against a tremendous flood insurance rate hike that will only victimize them further. By delaying the rate hikes mandated by Section 207 of Biggert-Waters, we can provide a window of respite for many struggling to rebuild, while Congress works toward a solution that eases the burden on homeowners and keeps flood insurance affordable for those who need it most."

What This Means: If you have ANY intentions of coming into the Market...better do it NOW, if anyone has had the misfortune to have dealt with our Bureaucracy in aftermath of a Natural-Disaster you know its a 'David and Goliath Scenario'.

WASHINGTON (June 20, 2013) – Existing-home sales improved in May and remain solidly above a year ago, while the median price continued to RISE by double-digit rates from a year earlier, according to the National Association of Realtors®. Total 'Existing-Home Sales', which are completed transactions rose 4.2% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.18 million in May from 4.97 million in April, and is 12.9% percent above the 4.59 million-unit pace in May 2012. Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said the recovery is strengthening and to expect LIMITED housing supplies for the balance of the year in much of the country. “The housing numbers are overwhelmingly POSITIVE. However, the number of available homes is unlikely to grow, despite a nice gain in May, unless new home construction ramps up quickly by an additional 50%,” he said. “The home price growth is too fast, and only additional supply from new home-building can moderate future price growth.” Existing-home sales are at the highest level since November 2009 when the market jumped to 5.44 million as buyers took advantage of tax stimulus. Sales have stayed above year-ago levels for 23 months, while the national median price shows 15 consecutive months of year-over-year increases. Total housing inventory at the end of May rose 3.3% to 2.22 million existing homes available for sale, which represents a 5.1-month supply at the current sales pace, down from 5.2 months in April. Listed inventory is 10.1% below a year ago, when there was a 6.5-month supply. The national median existing-home price for all housing types was $208,000 in May, up 15.4% from May 2012. Six straight months of double-digit increases and is the strongest price gain since October 2005, which jumped a record 16.6% from a year earlier. Last time there were 15 consecutive months of year-over-year price increases was from March 2005 to May 2006.

What This Means: Basically this is a 'Wake Up Call' to all who falsely believe its still a Buyers-Market it IS NOT...I have a perimeter of $75K to $300K and these days Clients tearing down my door to List them at at least the $125K mark, I'm continuously turning prospects because I'll only List three Homes at a time. I have uploaded the three currant ones here, remember I can assist you with your Real-Estate needs regardless of where you are located at...please PM me and we can share 'Real World' correspondence.

WASHINGTON (July 10, 2013) – Interest Rates on fixed 30-year Mortgages ROSE for the ninth week in a row to average 4.68 percent in the week ended July 5, the 'Mortgage Bankers Association' said. It was the highest level since July 2011 and a 10 Basis-Point INCREASE over the week before. The SURGE in costs had been expected to push some undecided Buyers into the Market as they rush to lock in Rates before they RISE even more, but the MBA's seasonally adjusted gauge of Loan-Requests for Home purchases fell 3.1 percent, the second straight week of declines. Rates have been RISING since early May, and the INCREASE accelerated after comments from 'Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke' last month that the U.S. Central Bank expects to wind down the pace of its Quantitative Easing Program later this year if the Economy improves as expected.

What This Means: The GOOD part of this is our Economy's expected to improve...as a result logically Interest-Rates will go up, please if you have been standing Poolside its time to 'Jump On In' the waters great. Later this month I'm working on a Contract to Liquidate 13 Condominiums at $45K each...these are ALL Furnished and Rented in a lucrative-location, if your an Investor PM me so we can discuss 'Real Life Details'.
