"Average rates on U.S. fixed mortgages ticked up this week but are still low by historical standards, a trend that has helped the housing market recover.

Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday that the average on the 30-year loan rose to 4.39 percent from 4.31 percent last week. Rates are a full percentage point higher than in early May.

The average on the 15-year fixed loan increased to 3.43 percent from 3.39 percent last week."

This is an interesting approach a city in California is taking in response to foreclosures. It is being closely watched by the national real estate community.

"The California city of Richmond said Tuesday that it's ready to take an extraordinary step in its bid to stop foreclosures -- threatening to wrest mortgages from the investors who now control them.

But if the holders of the loans, who are mostly investors, refuse to sell by Aug. 14, the city said it will invoke eminent domain to seize the mortgages so it has more control over the process of making them affordable."

"U.S. home prices jumped 12.2 percent in May compared with a year ago, the biggest annual gain since March 2006. The increase shows the housing recovery is strengthening.

The Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index released Tuesday also surged 2.4 percent in May from April. The month-over-month gain nearly matched the 2.6 percent increase in April from March – the highest on record.

The price increases were widespread. All 20 cities showed gains in May from April and compared with a year ago."

"Job growth will dip in the next few months before accelerating into next year despite a lackluster economy, according to a USA TODAY survey of economists.

Monthly job gains that have averaged about 200,000 so far this year will slip to a still-solid 178,000 in the July-September quarter, according to the median estimate of 42 top economists. January’s hike in payroll taxes and federal spending cuts are crimping economic growth.

Hiring has been strong in light of the soft economy, and most economists expect that to continue.

Average monthly job gains are forecast to end the year weaker than they started, before returning to close to 200,000 by the January-March quarter. The unemployment rate, now 7.6 percent, is expected to hit 7.0 percent by mid-2014."

"Americans snapped up new homes in June at the fastest pace in five years, a sign the housing recovery is strengthening.

The Commerce Department said Wednesday that sales rose 8.3 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual pace of 497,000. That’s up from an annual pace of 459,000 in May, which was revised lower.

While sales are still below the 700,000 pace consistent with healthy markets, they have risen 38 percent in the past 12 months. That’s the biggest annual gain since January 1992."

07/16/2013

"Spurred by tight inventory and plenty of interest from foreign buyers, real estate developers in cities such as New York and Miami are reviving the boom-era practice of pitching new buildings months – and even years – ahead of completion.

But now that buyers are returning to the market, they are confronting historically low inventory levels, making presale offerings an increasingly attractive option. In the second quarter of this year, there were 4,795 units for sale in Manhattan, the lowest second quarter on record in at least 13 years, Mr. Miller says. Sales volume, on the other hand, has risen almost 19 percent compared with the same period last year. In a rising market, buyers are less fearful of a building going bust – and can look to presales as a way to “lock in” a lower price point."
