As we’ve mentioned many times, inventory of single-family, re-sale homes, condos and rentals in San Francisco is very low. Fortunately, there are a slew of new buildings in some stage of planning or construction. At last count, we identified 23 new condo projects around the city. There have been or will shortly be 2,498 new condo/loft units on the market. There are 141 more units in the proposal stage. This should alleviate some of the pricing pressure in San Francisco.

Relief in Sight?
As we’ve mentioned many times, inventory of
single-family, re-sale homes, condos and rentals in
San Francisco is very low.
Fortunately, there are a slew of new buildings in
some stage of planning or construction. At last
count, we identified 23 new condo projects around
the city.
There have been or will shortly be 2,498 new
condo/loft units on the market.
There are 141 more units in the proposal stage.
This should alleviate some of the pricing pressure
in San Francisco.

for homes gained year-over-year, but only by single

to last February. Home sales were down 16.7%.

The Real Estate Report
The chart above shows the Na-
tional monthly average for 30-
year fixed rate mortgages as
compiled by HSH.com. The av-
erage includes mortgages of all
sizes, including conforming,
"expanded conforming," and
jumbo.
MORTGAGE RATE OUTLOOK
Mortgage Rates Easing Back Again
Feb 27, 2015 -- mortgage markets and rates have be-
come more volatile of late. January's rate declines
trended into early February, were virtually erased
over a couple of week span, and now that upward
blip is in the process of being at least partially erased
at the moment.
All of this has occurred in perhaps a quarter-
percentage point range for interest rates, and is fair
warning about the kind of market climate we're likely
to see in the period before the Fed actually does
begin the process of "liftoff". At some point, will show
some more reliable traction and head up from recent
ranges. When that will be is still not clear, as it ap-
pears the Fed remains noncommittal at the moment.
HSH.com's broad-market mortgage tracker -- our
weekly Fixed-Rate Mortgage Indicator (FRMI) --
found that the overall average rate for 30-year fixed-
rate mortgages declined by four basis points this
week (0.04%) slipping to 3.92 percent, breaking a
two-week increase. The FRMI's 15-year companion
eased by three-hundredths of one percent, sending
the weekly average back down to 3.25 percent.
Popular with first-time homebuyers, perhaps more so
now that the annual MIP has been lowered, rates on
fully-insured FHA-backed 30-year FRMs remain well
below their conforming counterparts but shed only a
single basis point from last week's average, ticking
downward to land at 3.74 percent this week. More
erratic than its fixed-rate counterparts of late, the
overall 5/1 Hybrid ARM decreased by six basis points
(0.06%), drifting back down to 3.08 percent for the
week.
Housing could drive the economy higher in the
months ahead, but traction remains tough to come
by.
Very thin stockpiles of homes for sale seem to be a
cause for limited growth in sales of existing homes,
and this situation may come to vex the spring hous-
ing market this year. In January, sales of existing
homes declined by 4.9 percent to a 4.82 million
(annualized) rate; this was the slowest rate of sale
since last May. Inventories of homes for sale did
expand a little, rising to 4.7 months in January from
4.4 in December, but the truth is that for many poten-
tial buyers, there's simply nothing desirable to buy in
their price range. Tight supplies do create well-
supported prices, and even though there was a
month-to-month dip, median home prices are still
some 6.2 percent above the same period last year.

Add all prices and divide by the
number of sales.

DOI

property for sale at the current
rate of sales.
Pend

Inven
Number of properties actively

Notices of default, the first step in the foreclosure proc-
ess, in San Francisco jumped 35% in January from
December. Year-over-year, notices were up 26.2%.
There were 53 notices in January.
Notices of sale, which set the date and time of an auc-
tion, and serve as the homeowner's final notice before
sale, rose 7.1% from December, but they were down
41.2% year-over-year. There were 30.
After the filing of a Notice of Trustee Sale, there are
only three possible outcomes. First, the sale can be
cancelled for reasons that include a successful loan
modification or short sale, a filing error, or a legal re-
quirement to re-file the notice after extended postpone-
ments.
FORECLOSURE STATISTICS
Alternatively, if the property is taken to sale, the bank
will place the opening bid. If a third party, typically an
investor, bids more than the bank's opening bid, the
property will be sold to the third party; if not, it will go
back to the bank.
There were 18 sales cancelled last month.
One home went back to the bank in January.
There are currently 123 properties scheduled for sale.
With the recent surge in prices, many of them will
probably be cancelled.
The total number of properties owned by the banks was
down 14.7% year-over-year. The banks now own ap-
proximately 209 properties in the city.
