Rate of 30 Year fixed mortgage hovers at 4%
Rate on 30-year fixed mortgage hovers at 4%
Mortgage Rate Trend Index
Only 8% of industry experts polled by Bankrate.com this week expect rates to fall, with the rest evenly divided; 46% expect no change over the short run, while 46% predict an increase.
WASHINGTON – Dec. 2, 2011 – The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage hovered above its record low for a fifth straight week. Despite the great opportunity, few have the means or stomach to buy or refinance in the depressed housing market.
Freddie Mac said Thursday the rate on the 30-year home loan rose slightly to 4 percent from 3.98 percent the week before. Eight weeks ago, it dropped to a record low of 3.94, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research.
The average rate on the 15-year fixed mortgage was unchanged at 3.30 percent. Eight weeks ago, it too hit a record low of 3.26 percent.
Rates have been below 5 percent for all but two weeks this year. Yet this year could be the worst for home sales in 14 years.
Mortgage rates track the yield on the 10-year Treasury note. The yield rose this week after investors, encouraged by central banks’ joint effort to ease lending standards, shifted their money into stocks. Treasury yields rise when buying activity decreases.
Low mortgage rates haven’t translated into higher home sales. Mortgage applications have dropped over the past few weeks, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.
High unemployment and scant wage gains have made it harder for many people to qualify for loans. Many Americans don’t want to sink money into a home that could lose value over the next three to four years. And most homeowners who can afford to refinance already have.
The low rates have caused a modest boom in refinancing, but that benefit might be wearing off. Most people who can afford to refinance have already locked in rates below 5 percent.
The average rates don’t include extra fees, known as points, which most borrowers must pay to get the lowest rates. One point equals 1 percent of the loan amount.
The average fee for the 30-year was unchanged at 0.7 and 15-year fixed mortgages rose from 0.7 to 0.8.
The average rate on the five-year adjustable loan ticked down to 2.90 percent from 2.91 percent. The average rate on the one-year adjustable loan also fell, declining to 2.78 percent from 2.79 percent.
The average fees on the five-year and one-year adjustable loans were unchanged from 0.6.
To calculate average mortgage rates, Freddie Mac surveys lenders across the country Monday through Wednesday of each week.

Our Economy Overview
Weekly Economic Summary –
June 23, 2011
Last week in review
(June 13 – 17, 2011
The volatility in Greece, as the country continues to search for some sort of bailout to meet near-term financing needs, has caused some flight to safety buying of U.S. dollar denominated securities like treasuries and mortgage backed securities, upon which home loan rates are based. This helped bonds and home loan rates last week, which was a good thing, since signs of inflation also heated up last week and bonds and home loan rates would have likely worsened on that inflation news.
Remember, inflation is the arch enemy of bonds and home loan rates because inflation erodes the value of the fixed return provided by a bond, which causes home loan rates to rise. And last week, both the Producer Price Index (which measures inflation at the wholesale level) and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) (which measures inflation at the consumer level) were both reported higher than expected, with the core CPI rising by 0.3%, which was the largest monthly increase in three years. While the Fed continues to say that the increase in inflation is transitory (i.e. short in duration, temporary or not persistent), more signs of inflation in the coming weeks and months could hinder bonds and home loan rates from further improvements.

Palm City Equestrian Properties: Short Sale News from Carol Barron-Cross, Sunflower Homes and Equestrian, LLC http://ping.fm/pbtHU
Short Sale News from Carol Barron-Cross, Sunflower Homes and Equestrian, LLC
Fewer Borrowers Strategically Defaulting
The percentage of borrowers who walk away from their mortgage despite still being able to pay is shrinking. Yet strategic defaults still account for nearly one-fifth of serious mortgage delinquencies, HousingWire reports.
About 17 percent of all mortgage defaults that are 60 days or more past due in the second quarter of 2010 were strategic defaults. In the second quarter of 2008, that percentage peaked at 20 percent — which is more than double the number of strategic defaults in 2006, according to a study from Experian, a credit reporting agency, and Oliver Wyman, a consulting firm.
Strategic defaults tend to be more common with borrowers who have jumbo mortgages and have higher annual incomes, according to Experian.
In the second quarter of 2010, 30 percent of strategic defaulters earned more than $150,000 a year, and only 9 percent earned less than $40,000, Experian reports. Furthermore, 33 percent of delinquent mortgages were on homes more than $1 million. For comparison, only 6 percent of homes priced at $50,000 were attributed to strategic defaults, Experian notes.
Experian notes borrowers with more expensive homes and higher incomes may be more financially savvy and be able to take the impact to their credit score more so than other types of borrowers.
As home values began to dip in 2007, more borrowers became underwater on their homes, causing some to stop paying their mortgage and walk away from their home.
Strategic defaults in general "aren’t likely to decline much unless residential housing prices increase and remain at higher levels," according to the report. "Home owners have to see for themselves that their neighbors' houses are selling for higher prices."

Palm Citys Horse Talk News: Our Real Estate Market
It is cheaper to buy a home than to rent one in 39 of the nations 50 largest cities, according to a quarterly report by real estate search and marketing site Trulia. Trulias rent vs. buy index compared the median list price with the median rent on two-bedroom apartments, condominiums and townhomes listed on Trulia.com as of April 1, 2011, in the 50 most populous cities in the U.S. While 72 percent of the cities favored buying in the previous quarters report, 78 percent favored buying in this latest report. "With home prices nearing a double dip and more foreclosures expected to flood the housing market over the next two years, the decision between renting and buying a home across most of the country has clearly moved in favor of buying," said Ken Shuman, Trulias spokesperson, in a statement. "As we head into the summer buying season, those looking to buy a home should be encouraged by improvements in the market and feel optimistic about their chances of finding an affordable home much more so than in previous years."

March saw another increase in pending home sales, with contract activity rising unevenly in six of the past nine months, according to the National Association of Realtors. The Pending Home Sales Index, a forward-looking indicator based on contract signings, rose 5.1 percent to 94.1 in March from a downwardly revised 89.5 in February. The index is 11.4 percent below 106.2 in March 2010; however, activity was at elevated levels in March and April of 2010 to meet the contract deadline for the home buyer tax credit. The data reflects contracts but not closings, which normally occur with a lag time of one or two months. Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said home sales activity has shown an uneven but notable improvement. Since reaching a cyclical bottom last June, pending home sales have posted an overall gain of 24 percent and demonstrate the market is recovering on its own, he said. The index means modest near-term gains in existing-home sales are likely, which would be even stronger if tight real estate lending criteria returned to normal, safe standards. Source: NAR
One key step to the housing recovery is already occurring, economists and real estate agents say. That is a drop in the high inventories of homes for sale that are lingering on the market in areas hardest hit by foreclosures. Clearing away the inventory of foreclosures is crucial to turning around the market, since foreclosures and distressed homes can weigh heavily on home prices, industry insiders say. Economists say home prices will stabilize as the supply of these bargain-priced homes decrease. In turn, more buyers and sellers will get more confident and return to the market, and home prices will begin to rise. Investors are helping to clear away the glut of foreclosures by taking advantage of ultra low prices in Detroit, Las Vegas, Miami, Phoenix, and Tampa. In those five cities, such sales have helped to shrink the combined supply of unsold homes by 13 percent over the past year, according to an analysis by the Associated Press. "If we were to see several consecutive months of supply getting smaller, it would point to an improving housing market," says Celia Chen, senior director at Moodys Analytics. "Even if it is investors buying them, they are renting them out in hopes that prices in the next several years will rise." However, the housing market isnt out of the clear quite yet, economists caution. A second wave of foreclosures looms foreclosures that had been delayed by banks and backlogged courts.

Military veterans are more likely to be homeless than any other American group, reveals a government study on homelessness among former service members. Yet, vets only make up 10 percent of the adult population. About 16 percent or more than 75,000 veterans in the country do not have a home and live on the streets or in a temporary shelter, according to the study. Nearly half of the homeless vets are in California, Texas, New York, or Florida. The study found a higher prevalence of minority vets being homeless (34 percent were African American, and 11 percent were Hispanic), according to the survey. About 11,300 younger veterans, who were between 18 to 30 years old and who had served in Iraq and Afghanistan, were in shelters at some point during 2009, when the study was originally conducted. As more troops return from Iraq and Afghanistan, experts say its time to do something about the high incidence of homelessness among U.S. vets. President Obama has set a goal to end homelessness among veterans and others by 2015. To start reaching that goal, HUD is providing $10 million in short-term rental assistance to vets, and the VA is providing $5 million for medical services and case management. Meanwhile, the Labor Department will provide job training and counseling for vets. Source: USAToday.com

American Attitudes About Home Ownership
According to a NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® survey of 3,793 adults conducted by Harris Interactive and released in January 2011, home owners and renters agree that home ownership benefits individuals and families, strengthens our communities, and is integral to our nation’s economy.
Here you’ll find highlights from the research report plus easy ways to share the information.
Among the findings of NAR’s “American Attitudes About Homeownership” survey:
- The vast majority of both home owners and renters say that owning a home is a smart decision over the long term. Even in today’s challenging economy, 95% of owners and 72% of renters believe that over a period of several years, it makes more sense to own a home.
- Home owners are much more likely to be satisfied with the quality of their family and community life than renters. While more than half of owners (56%) are “very” or “extremely” satisfied with the overall quality of their family life, only about one-third (36%) of renters report the same levels of satisfaction. Also, 43% of home owners are “very” or “extremely” satisfied with their community life, compared with 30% of renters.
- An overwhelming majority of home owners are happy with their decision to own a home. A full 93% of owners surveyed would buy again.
- Most renters aspire to home ownership. The majority of renters (63%) say they are at least somewhat likely to purchase a home at some point in the future. Among them, young adults (18- to 24-years-old) have the strongest aspirations for home ownership.
The survey also confirmed that home owners and renters continue to have concerns about the economy:
- In today’s market, many aspiring home owners face worries about job security and credit worthiness. Among renters who are “very” or “extremely” likely to buy a home in the future, three out of five consider confidence in job security or creditworthiness to be an obstacle.
- Home owners and renters both believe that the mortgage interest deduction should not be targeted for change. 74% of owners and 62% of renters say it’s “extremely” or “very” important that the MID remain in place.
Given the strong public support of and aspirations for owning a home, we need to keep in place policies that support and encourage responsible, sustainable home ownership.
