Foreclosures Inched Up in the 3rd Quarter of 2022
According to ATTOM Data’s Q3 2022 Vacant Property & Zombie Foreclosure Report, 1.3 million residential properties in the United States are sitting vacant, representing 1.3%, or 1 in 78 homes, across the nation. The report also reveals that 270K residential properties in the U.S. are in foreclosure in Q3 this year, up 4.4% from Q2 2022 and 25.5% from Q3 2021. This trend marks the 4th quarter in a row where "pre-foreclosure" properties have increased since a nationwide moratorium on lenders pursuing delinquent homeowners was lifted at the end of July 2021.

Home price appreciation is cooling off but is still strong.

Home prices rose 0.6% in June and 18% year-over-year, a decline from May's report. Although appreciation is slowing, as seen in the U.S. National Home Price Index report, it remains strong.

According to the reports, prices for homes across the country are beginning to find some level ground. That said, it's likely going to take a while before any significant drop-off happens, so if you're looking to sell right now, do everything possible to make your home the one everyone wants. If you're buying it might be worth looking into your options and holding off a bit to see what the market is going to do next.

Current Mortgage Rates Rise for the Second Straight Week

Mortgage rates increased for the second week in a row. According to Freddie Mac's weekly survey, the average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage increased 0.11 percentage points to 5.66%.

After bouncing between 5% and 5.5% over the last two months, mortgage rates are now at their highest since June 2022. Moreover, rates saw a sharp increase during the year's first half, placing a strain on affordability for many potential home buyers.

"The increase in mortgage rates is coming at a particularly vulnerable time for the housing market as sellers are re-calibrating their pricing due to lower purchase demand," Sam Khater, Freddie Mac's chief economist, said in a statement.

Is the housing market getting ready to crash?

Think about the last time the U.S. housing market looked this booming. It was from sometime between 2005 and up to 2007.

Then what happened? Home values took a nose-dive into the dark side and with disastrous results. When the real estate bubble burst, the global economy plunged into the deepest downturn since the Great Depression. Homeowners who had bought their castles at the market highs only a year or two ago were suddenly under water.

The experts are now asking if this is "deja-vu all over again," Are we heading toward another big market crash like in 2008? Do you think there will be plenty of opportunities to make money? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.

-The Tide has Turned-
The housing market has rapidly changed. Once holding the upper hand, Sellers are much more accommodating to completing a home sale as borrowing costs skyrocket for buyers.

In recent weeks, home buyers have been forcing sellers to readjust their home prices. According to Redfin, during the four weeks leading to June 19, an estimated 6.1% of homes for sale were asked for a reduction of acceptable sales prices. Again, we have data that goes back to the beginning of 2015, and we can conclude that this is a record high in the industry.

Homeowners who have been contemplating a move and are thinking they are still in a bad position should be aware that the tide has turned. It's far from a buyer's market, but there is some wiggle room. That wiggle room is because sellers realize that it's no longer automatic getting those higher prices, quick sales, and a host of other favorable perks they've been enjoying. Instead, it's a reality check, "Higher rates and home prices mean that homebuyer budgets don't stretch as far as they used to."

Have you ever thought of being a Real Estate investor but the thought of all that work soured you on the idea? If the thought of swinging a hammer all day makes you quiver or just sick inside, there is still hope for you!

There are other vehicles available, which you may have not thought of as Real Estate investments. Like Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), Mutual Funds, REITs, and Real Estate focused stocks, for that matter, and these are only part of the equation.

There are also Private Equity Funds, Crowdfunding opportunities, and investing in First Trust Deeds or Notes.

There is a whole investing world out there that a lot of people I talk to are not aware of. If you're interested in more information on how you can get your money to work harder for you, drop us a line here at Alternate Funding Solutions.
