Government pushes for greater mortgage relief. The U.S. Treasury Department and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) on Monday announced guidelines to convert more trial mortgage modifications made under the Making Home Affordable Program into permanent modifications to help homeowners at risk of foreclosure.
New short sale program guidelines. The Treasury also released guidelines and forms for its new Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program (HAFA), which provides financial incentives to servicers and borrowers who utilize a short sale and deed-in-lieu to avoid foreclosure.
Pending home sales rise for ninth month in a row. NAR’s Pending Home Sales Index rose to 114.1 in October, a 3.7 percent increase over September. It also marked the first time since the inception of NAR’s index in 2001 that pending home sales increased for nine consecutive months.
Loan limit appeals process announced. FHA will permit appeals for the 2010 loan limits for those who can demonstrate that sales prices are higher than the current limits. Appeals must be made by December 21, 2009 and will be handled by FHA’s Santa Ana Homeownership Center. Read the details in HUD’s Mortgagee Letter 2009-50.

NAR and many media releases are saying property sales are up. What they are not reporting are the details for Chicago and surrounding suburbs, but “The Midwest” or “Illinois”…
Illinois 2nd quarter sales were up 1.5%, but in Chicago? Chicago suburbs…? These numbers are still down 16% from 2nd quarter 2008, which were must lower than 2007 & 2006.
Many of these sales are also discounted builder properties, bank owned properties, and short sales… So what is happening closer to Chicago & the NW Suburbs?
Single family homes closed in the North & NW Suburbs of Chicag, for the 2nd quarter 2009 was 1380 sales of homes. Average market time 182 days, and average sale price of $513,000
2nd Quarter in 2008 there were 1521 home sales with an average sale price of $590,860…
A drop in pricing a little over14%, and a drop in sales by around 9%!
For Chicago 2nd quarter sales for 2009 there were 2106 sales with an average market time of 159 days. The average sale price was $214,900.
Last year 2nd quarter showed 1733 homes sold with an average sale price of $307,794.
Sales up 20% and pricing down 30%… Homes are now more affordable in the city! Suburban properties still pricey…
All stats interpreted by John Hybl as of 8-17-2009 from MRED LLC MLS service.

The National Association of Realtors reports that pending home sales continued their rise in June. The largest jump was seen in the South, where pending home sales rose 7.1 percent, coming in 8.9 percent higher than a year ago. All regions saw at least a minimal increase. The smallest increase was seen in the Northeast, at just .4 percent. All regions, except for the West, were also at significantly higher levels than in June of 2008. The West was .2 percent below June 2008. Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said a combination of positive market factors is fueling the gains. “Historically low mortgage interest rates, affordable home prices and large selection are encouraging buyers who’ve been on the sidelines. Activity has been consistently much stronger for lower priced homes,” he said. “Because it may take as long as two months to close on a home after signing a contract, first-time buyers must act fairly soon to take advantage of the $8,000 tax credit because they must close on the sale by November 30.”
Froem Main Street Organization of Realtors:
2nd Quarter Economic Forecast by John Tuccillo
We are at the point of the economic cycle where economic data is pointing in different directions. The employment numbers are still dismal: June’s job losses were far in excess of expectations (although it should be pointed out that May’s numbers were better than expected by about the same amount) and the unemployment rate stayed high.But real estate numbers are looking good, the Dow is rallying and there are glints of progress in consumer spending. For housing, existing home sales numbers are rising, inventories have fallen and the pending sales index points to more of the same. Prices are still weak and falling in many places mostly owing to the number of distressed properties on the market, but buyers are showing real interest in these properties and this has set a bottom for the market. Lower priced properties go quickly (sometimes with multiple offers) while more expensive homes languish. All in all, the data are little help.
But wait (as they say on TV), there’s more. Actually, mixed data are a good sign because they occur when the economy is turning. The reason I threw the Dow in above is that historically, the economy emerges from recession six months after the Dow turns up. That now looks like it will be in September. The wild card here is the impact of the stimulus. There has been a great deal of criticism that the stimulus has not yet worked (usually from the same folks who didn’t want it in the first place). If you look back, the CBO projections were that 10 percent of the effect of the stimulus would be felt in 2009, 60 percent in 2010 and the rest in later years. The turn in the recession will depend on how soon that 10 percent takes effect. I’m still sticking with September.
What about the Chicagoland area? If you look back over the past thirty years, home values have tracked inversely to employment. This makes sense since jobs encourage people to buy homes (they also spark the demand for commercial real estate). The unemployment rate in the MSA has nearly tripled since the beginning of 2007, and the housing and commercial markets have reacted accordingly. Right now, the employment picture in the MSA is worse than the nation because Chicago is a secondary casualty-losing jobs as a result of other areas losing jobs-and the negative impacts of the recession are happening a little later.
Now let’s look at the second quarter housing statistics for the MORe market area. The MLS offers a wealth of information and should be your most important tool in educating buyers and sellers on the reality of the market. In looking at MLS data, you should be looking at data that best describes not only the current market but the direction the market will take over the next several months. I described the key indicators in the last quarter report. Unfortunately, for the second quarter, they are pointing in the wrong direction. As compared with the second quarter in 2008, sales for the second quarter of 2009 are down (with the exception of detached single family homes in Cook County) and days on the market are up. The ratio of sales to list price is about even and this suggests that there is increased buyer interest in the market. Bargain hunters, as they are in most markets in the U.S. are coming out in force. The numbers for the second quarter are a bit anomalous in that they don’t jibe with the first quarter, which was generally better than the first quarter of 2008. The numbers would suggest that the market is flirting with a bottom, but has not yet reached it.
The problem with looking at a large market area is that your business is often done in a sub area, and gross statistics often misrepresent conditions where you operate. That means that the most effective way to educate buyers and sellers is to take the MLS stats for the areas where you do business and calculate the indicators as described above. That will allow you to make the most accurate case to consumers.

What is the next glitch in the changing home sale market for Chicago and the Suburban Market?
What also affects those property owners who want to refinance their property or do a mortgage modification?
Its the Appraisal….
Since May 1, home appraisals must be ordered at arm’s length, often through a national management company. Gone are the days when a mortgage broker or lender could hire a familiar appraiser to close a deal. Now, communication between the appraiser and real estate agents is discouraged.
The new rules were proposed by New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, who pushed for the standards after spending more than a year investigating industry appraisal practices. They govern only loans that will be sold to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, government-run mortgage companies that buy most of the nation’s home loans, and not loans guaranteed by the FHA or VA.
One problem, real estate agents and mortgage brokers say, is that the management companies assign appraisers who don’t know the area and lose experienced appraisers by taking a large percentage of the fees.
Another common complaint: appraisers value properties on the low end to appease lenders, which are scrutinizing appraisals now after suffering large loan losses in recent years
Appraisals are coming in very low right now. .. To make matters worse it’s no longer OK for the lender’s loan officer to actually talk to their own appraiser about the values of these properties. It’s a knee jerk reacti0n to the mortgage meltdown. Whatever the appraiser says, goes…even if they don’t have the foggiest notion of values in a given area.
So what is a person to do?
Request a 2nd appraisal. Have recent sales from your Realtor to provide to the appraiser. (Preferably less than 120 days from closed date) Give appraiser a list of property highlights and improvements.
Finally, let your voice be heard by calling your elected officials!

In the past few months, I have been asked by many sellers and buyers about short sales, what happens, what they’re all about, how is it done, etc. For your benefit, it’s time to fill you in on what these things are all about, and what you can expect if you plan on purchasing a home that’s being sold as a short sale. Next posting will include the sellers process.
A short sale is 2 steps before foreclosure. If a short sale is unsuccessful, the owners can do process called “deed in leiu of”. Basically giving the keys to lender and signing the deed over.
In a short sale typically the homeowner is unable to continue paying their mortgage (not to mention HOA fees, if any, and property taxes), and the value of the home is worth less than what the owners owe on it. For example, if you purchased a $750,000 home in June of 2005, today the home may be worth $500,000. In order to sell the house, the bank has to approve any offer received on it if there is not enough funds to pay mortgage balances… in other words, the bank (s) comes up “short” when they get their payoff.
Short sales require a lot of patience, as most banks have multiple short sale cases on their books, and are not adequately staffed to handle them. They also take a long time to approve or disapprove the offer. Average time to get approval is 4 months! Although the seller is still on title, it’s the bank that ultimately decides exactly how much of a loss they are willing to take. Often times, the buyers end up backing out of the transaction for various reasons, but often times, they get fed up with waiting or locate another property that works for them. The buyer who has time and patience wins, by getting a great deal on a property, typically in good condition, vs a bank foreclosure which usually are stripped bare of personal items, carpet, lights, etc and in bad shape.
As a seller, the benefits of doing a short sale is that it’s better than having a foreclosure on your credit, and in the meantime, you can still live in the property. Most short sales will affect the sellers creit scores by a 60 point reduction. They may not get another home loan for 2 years….For a buyer, you can sometimes make out with a pretty sweet deal, but it requires a lot of patience. The downside is that you don’t know what interest rates are going to do, and by the time the bank makes a decision, you may no longer qualify for the loan you originally qualified for. But you could always try locking your rate at an additional fee.
So what do you do? You’ve located a property that suits your needs, is in your price range, but it’s a short sale. I’d say put in an offer, but don’t stop looking or pass up another house that may suit your needs. A good agent will structure your offer so that you can back out at anytime and not risk losing your deposit. We try to make the offer subject to Attorney review after bank approval of contract, as well as home inspections at that time. Most properties are sold as-is, with tax prorations at 100%. We have seen many buyers putting in multiple offers on short sales… this should only be done on the advice of an Attorney or with a cancellation clause executed.
There are many unique situations with short sales. It is best to have an agent with the knowledge and experience of the process. Also an Attorney who has that experience as well.
