Home prices showed a slight decline in January according to most measures, with the exception of CoreLogic's distressed-excluded measure which increased slightly. Early February data showed year-over-year price increases for the first time since November 2010 according to existing home sales. Distressed sales, which hold back price increases, comprised 34% of sales in a recent survey, down from nearly 40% a year ago. Low inventories, declining delinquency rates, and strong demand are expected to continue supporting home prices.
The document summarizes inflation data for March 2012. It reports that consumer and producer prices increased 0.4% in March, with annual inflation at 2.9% and 3.3% respectively. Some items like food and medical services saw price increases above overall inflation. The Federal Reserve is committed to low interest rates through 2014 to boost the economy, but high inflation could force them to raise rates sooner.
The document summarizes state employment trends from February 2012. It highlights that the US unemployment rate declined in January 2012 and that most states also saw improvements in their unemployment rates over the previous month and year. It notes that over 40 states added jobs in January 2012 and that job growth was seen in 44 states over the previous year. The outlook is that increasing labor force participation may slow further declines in unemployment rates even as new jobs are added. The rest of the document provides charts showing nonfarm payroll employment levels for each state from 2007 to 2011.
Inflation increased slightly in January according to several key measures. Consumer prices rose 0.2% while producer prices increased 0.1%. Both measures show prices are noticeably higher than a year ago. Core consumer prices, excluding food and energy, are just outside the target range of 1-2%. Some items like meats, food, transportation and medical costs are rising at a considerable rate causing concern. The Federal Reserve has committed to keeping interest rates low through late 2014 to help the economy, though this policy could lead to higher inflation.
Home prices rose slightly in November according to some measures but declined according to others. Distressed home sales made up 32% of total sales in November, down from 40% a year ago. Most forecasts predict stable or increasing home prices in coming months, supported by low inventories and affordable prices, though limited new construction could constrain buyer options.
The document summarizes home price data from various sources in January 2012. It finds that while most measures showed slight monthly price increases in November, year-over-year declines remained small. Distressed home sales made up 32% of the market, down from 40% a year ago. The outlook anticipated limited new construction supply balancing with low inventories, declining delinquencies, and potential economic improvements supporting home prices.
Metro Area Unemployment Data from December 2011REALTORS
The document analyzes unemployment rates in 27 major metro areas in the United States. It finds that while unemployment is not back to normal levels everywhere, 24 areas saw job gains in the last year and unemployment improved in 25 areas. Minneapolis had the lowest unemployment rate at 5.5% in December while Las Vegas had the highest at 12.7%. Houston had the biggest payroll growth over the last year.
The unemployment rate in the US and most states declined in December 2011. 46 states saw an improvement in their unemployment rate over the past year, led by Nevada, Florida, and New Mexico. 25 states and DC experienced job growth in December, though the average growth among states was less than previous months. While unemployment rates declined, this may be partly due to a decrease in workforce participation, which could keep unemployment rates high or cause them to rise despite new job creation.
The document discusses recent inflation trends in the US. In December, consumer and producer prices either moderated or declined for items like food, energy and utilities, causing overall inflation measures to remain flat or decrease slightly. However, some prices like food at home and medical services increased at concerning rates. Looking ahead, the Federal Reserve will likely continue its low interest rate policy through 2013 to support the economy, which risks potential future inflation.
The document discusses how developers are addressing affordable housing needs in the current economic environment by building on a smaller scale with slower development. Specifically, some developers are focusing on smaller projects that do not require as much debt, and many home builders are constructing smaller homes to match current consumer demand. Additionally, local realtor associations are playing important roles in their communities by addressing workforce housing needs through various strategies like sustainable affordable housing.
Metro Area Unemployment Data: January 2012REALTORS
While unemployment rates have improved in most metro areas compared to a year ago, there is still significant geographic variation. The Minneapolis area had the lowest unemployment rate in November at 5.1%, while Las Vegas continued to have the highest at 12.5%. Twenty-six of the 27 metro areas reviewed saw decreases in their unemployment rates over the last year, with only Chicago seeing an increase. Las Vegas saw the greatest improvement, with its unemployment rate falling 2.4 percentage points from 14.9% to 12.5% over the year.
The document summarizes home price data from various sources for December 2011. It finds that monthly home price declines in October were small except for non-distressed existing homes which saw small gains. Year-over-year declines were also small across measures. Distressed sales made up around 30% of existing home sales. Low inventories, declining delinquency rates, and stable buyer traffic should support prices going forward despite challenges from client pricing expectations. Affordability remains high and improving employment could boost home sales and prices in 2012.
The unemployment rate declined in November across most states and nationally. Forty-three states and DC saw declines, with Michigan, Alabama, Minnesota, South Carolina and Utah seeing drops over 0.5%. New Mexico saw the largest year-over-year improvement. Most states also added jobs in November, led by South Carolina, while Alaska lost jobs. However, slowing labor force growth may keep unemployment rates from declining further despite job creation.
- Inflation remained moderate in November with overall prices flat, but prices are still noticeably higher than a year ago.
- Some prices like food, transportation and medical services are rising at concerning rates.
- The Federal Reserve will likely continue its low interest rate policy through mid-2013 to support economic growth, though this could increase inflation risks.
Canadian buyers are a significant source of demand for US real estate. Canadians accounted for 23% of international buyers in 2010, up from 7% in 2007. Factors driving Canadian demand include the strong Canadian dollar, relatively lower home prices in the US, and higher returns on investment properties. Popular destinations for Canadian buyers include Florida, Arizona, and parts of the Western US. Real estate professionals are advised to connect with Canadian agents and professionals to build referral relationships and tap into the growing Canadian market.
The document discusses strategies for real estate agents to build successful multicultural teams. It recommends that agents partner with others who have complementary skills and specialize in different niche markets. This allows the team members to leverage each other's strengths and expand their reach. The document provides tips for agents to formalize roles, create compensation agreements, and develop communication systems to ensure their team runs smoothly. It highlights one successful team that specializes in the Canadian and UK markets in Florida.
The document summarizes home price data from various sources in November 2011. Most sources showed a typical seasonal month-to-month decline in home prices except for the FHFA price index and CoreLogic index, which increased slightly. Year-over-year comparisons showed price declines of 1-4% from the previous year, around the same as prior months. New home prices continued to fluctuate due to low construction levels. Distressed home sales remained around 30% of total sales, slowing price growth. Low inventories, declining delinquencies, and stable buyer traffic were expected to support prices despite limited new home construction options for buyers.
