Red CUbe: Property portfolio - Building an Alternative Pension?Proud To Be World
According to The Department of Work and Pensions, pension savings have dropped to its lowest levels in a decade with 38% of people putting money into plans compared with 46%.
There are two main reasons for this:
• Stock market volatility
• Poor returns on most asset classes
Whilst property buy to let experienced a boom period pre credit crunch (2008), it had almost stagnated by 2009/10 as recession took hold, which in turn led to a lack of mortgage products and falling house prices reduced the appetite and confidence of investors.
Having said this, it also must be remembered that property as an asset class has fared far better than any other asset classes with regards to returns, especially as rents during this period have continued to increase.

Three Mistakes First-Time Homebuyers Make.docxLarry Weltman
Three common mistakes first-time homebuyers make are: 1) Not taking advantage of incentives like Ontario's First-Time Home Buyer Incentive which provides up to 10% off a mortgage; 2) Not managing existing debt which impacts mortgage approval; 3) Not budgeting for down payments and related fees, with less than 20% down requiring default insurance. Resources exist to help first-time buyers navigate the process successfully with careful financial planning and building trust with lenders.
Housing activity remains above year-ago levels despite the expiration of tax credits. Home prices have stabilized with similar levels of distressed home sales as last year, though the economy still has further recovery ahead. Consumers are saving more and spending cautiously. While this reduces near-term spending, it positions households financially for the future. The Federal Reserve continues measures to support the economy through low interest rates and may reinvest maturing mortgage bonds to stimulate growth.
This document provides an overview of the recent state of the US housing market and real estate sector. It summarizes that home sales and prices have increased for four months in a row, housing inventory has decreased, and the overall economy appears to be on a slow track to recovery. It also reviews current mortgage rates, home affordability levels, and recent government programs affecting housing such as changes to loan modification eligibility and FHA funding.
This document provides a summary of the real estate market in July 2009. It notes that home sales and prices have increased for four months while inventory has decreased, signaling a recovery. However, tight credit availability remains a challenge. The economy appears to be slowly improving, though unemployment and interest rates could impact the recovery. Recent government actions include expanding loan modification programs and FHA capacity to support the market.

Let's connect with a real estate professional to discuss your home buying or selling process. https://bit.ly/connect-km-realty
Rising home prices are projected to increase homeowners' equity over the next year. However, mortgage rates are expected to rise as the Fed continues raising rates in a strong economy, making it more expensive for borrowers to refinance or purchase homes. It is getting easier to obtain a mortgage as credit availability has increased. Rents are projected to see more modest growth of around 1.7% as new apartment construction adds to inventory and meets demand. The share of all-cash home buyers is expected to decline to historical levels of around 25% by 2019.
- Home sales fell below year-ago levels for the first time in 14 months due to the expiration of the federal tax credit, while home prices remained stable. Mortgage rates continued setting new record lows.
- The new financial reform law establishes new regulations for mortgages, credit reports, credit/debit cards, and creates a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to regulate consumer loans.
- Buying a home with a 15-year mortgage allows buyers to build equity faster by paying off the loan sooner compared to a 30-year loan. Local lenders may offer more competitive rates than large banks.

This document provides an overview of the current housing market and advice for home buyers. Key points include:
- The housing market today is very different than in 2008 during the recession, with more moderate home price increases, tighter lending standards, and low housing inventory.
- For buyers, now is a good time to purchase a home due to historically low mortgage rates expected to remain low through 2021 and modest projected price appreciation.
- Technology is enabling more aspects of the home buying process to be done virtually, from initial consultations to signing and closing documents, in light of the pandemic.
- It's important for buyers to work with a real estate professional to navigate the complex home buying process and leverage their expertise
The Ontario government announced measures to address challenges in the overheating housing market, including initiatives to cool demand, boost supply, and expand rent control. Demand cooling measures include a 15% tax on non-resident home buyers and preventing pre-construction property flipping. Supply boosting measures aim to increase development through incentives for purpose-built rentals and leveraging provincial assets. Expanded rent control applies to all renters, including units built after 1991, but may have unintended consequences of reducing rental supply if it discourages investment.
This newsletter discusses changes in the US housing market as distressed properties have been absorbed and foreclosures have declined. Housing funds focused on quickly "flipping" distressed homes are struggling as margins have narrowed and inventories declined. The newsletter predicts future housing shortages due to increased demand from new households and a lack of new construction over the past 5 years. It recommends investors allocate funds to residential construction to take advantage of the recovering housing market.
The document provides an overview of the housing market and real estate topics. It summarizes recent housing data showing continued slow growth in home sales and prices. Mortgage rates remain at historic lows, keeping housing highly affordable. The document also discusses the prime conditions for home buyers, including low prices and rates, motivated sellers, and available financing. It concludes by introducing Keller Williams Realty, the organization that produced the document.
Apart from the economy itself, government policies can significantly affect the property market, according to an article by Investopedia about the factors that drive real estate values. This is because major changes in policies related to tax can significantly swing the decision of homebuyers.
The housing market recovery slowed in July after the homebuyer tax credit expired, with home sales falling below year-ago levels for the first time in 14 months. However, home prices remained stable and mortgage rates set new record lows, maintaining historically high affordability. The job market and economy recovery remained concerns. New financial reform laws aimed to strengthen consumer protections for mortgages and credit reporting.
This chapter discusses factors to consider when making housing decisions, including evaluating options like renting, buying, or building a home. It covers the home buying process, financing options, costs of purchasing a home, refinancing, and developing a strategy for selling a home. The document provides guidance on analyzing costs and benefits of different housing choices and implementing the steps to purchase, finance, and sell a property.

High Mortgage Interest Rate Positive for Landlords.pptx
1.
2. It’s no secret that the multiple consecutive increases to the Bank of England (BoE)
base rate, currently at 5%, have had a significant and sometimes dramatic impact
on borrowing costs, not least for homeowners with variable-rate tariffs. The same
applies to landlords, with current rates on buy-to-let mortgages hovering at
around 6% for five-year fixed terms and as high as 7% or above for two-year fixed
mortgage agreements.
However, while many will welcome the predictions that interest rates will begin to
fall as we progress through the year, there are also indications that professional
landlords have seen some unexpected benefits.
Demand for quality rental properties has continued to be incredibly high. The
strained mortgage market has generated a reluctance to buy while rates are high
or sell when the housing sector has begun to cool. Many prospective buyers have
put their plans on hold, adding to the ever-growing need for more rental
accommodation.
3. Changes to the UK Rental Market
in 2023
There are numerous factors at play that have impacted the rental sector, from the
rising cost of living to the interest rates we’ve mentioned. Another element is that
many mortgage lenders have started removing products from the market
altogether or introducing products for new borrowers with interest rates multiple
times higher than previously advertised.
4. Housing Market Statistics
• The supply of private rented accommodation has grown by only 1% in the last seven years,
while record-high immigration and employment levels have contributed to surges in
demand. Great properties in prime locations are let faster, and for more, with discretion
about the tenants a landlord chooses to rent to.
• Inflation has cooled slightly alongside the property market. Houses are appreciating
slower, with Which reporting annual average growth of 3.5% – a dip from previous market
peaks in November 2022. Although that is unlikely to impact landlord portfolios, residential
sellers are listing fewer properties, expecting to achieve a better value once the economy
has stabilised.
• High mortgage rates, or the lack of available products, have deterred many buyers,
choosing to remain in rented accommodation until the cost of borrowing becomes more
manageable.
Overall, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) reports that in the year to March 2023, private
rental prices increased by 4.9%, with landlords experiencing very low vacant periods and
sustained income growth.
6. The complexity of the economic environment means that first-time buyers
are particularly less inclined to purchase their first property. High mortgage
costs are part of the puzzle. Still, another is that higher living costs, often not
matched with wage growth and higher mortgage repayments, make it
challenging to pass lender affordability assessments.
Regardless of the rent a tenant is currently paying, mortgage lenders need to
assess their income, outgoings and existing debts to comply with responsible
lending regulations.
Most will limit the borrowing they are prepared to extend to around four
times the applicant’s annual income. In some cases, they can offer a higher
multiple – usually if the applicant is considered very low risk and has a strong
deposit and healthy credit score.
8. A first-time buyer purchasing a home worth the current UK average house
price of £286,489, as of April 2023, would need a deposit of 10%, or £28,649,
and a salary of £64,460 – over twice the national average salary. Joint
applicants would need to each have a salary of £32,230 to qualify for this
level of borrowing, some 4% above the average of £30,992 based on ONS
figures.
Although wages grew 6.6% from December 2022 to February 2023, this also
remains far below the most recent 8.7% inflation figure. Most households
have less disposable income, making it more difficult to save a sufficient value
to use as a deposit.
All of these financial aspects mean it is harder for people to buy properties,
adding to the demand for rented housing and the ongoing increases in
average rental prices and yields.
10. Many landlords are looking at ways to maximise the performance of their
property portfolios, ensuring they present properties that attract reliable
tenants prioritising excellent housing standards and the ability to remain in
rented accommodation – often as they save towards a deposit.
Previous statistics show that recession and inflation normally trigger greater
interest in renting. Where there are potential opportunities to grow rental
portfolios as house prices begin to slow, it could be an optimal time to buy,
the higher costs of mortgage borrowing notwithstanding.
Long-term investments may become more profitable due to sustained
positive rental yields and future appreciation, especially for landlords and
investors with the capital to purchase properties without relying on financing.
12. Property experts are tentatively forecasting that once the current volatility
calms, the housing market will return to higher rates of growth.
Where some landlords have chosen to exit the market to avoid exposure to
higher borrowing costs, usually where a fixed-term buy-to-let mortgage is due
to end, this has also been to the advantage of those with ongoing portfolios. A
smaller pool of properties is available to a growing number of renters,
resolving potential issues such as price pressures and accepting less
satisfactory tenants to fill a vacant property.
Although care is necessary when deciding whether to introduce higher rental
prices within an existing tenancy, there is often the scope to market a vacant
rental home at a higher than previous value based on current market
averages.
13. There are also several ways for landlords to manage rental property costs,
such as ensuring any borrowing products are on an interest-only repayment
basis to mitigate the monthly cost of borrowing and implementing insurance
coverage to safeguard against late payments to alleviate the potential
impacts on cash flow.
