 A cut...won't affect the 30-year fixed mortgage rate at all. According to Freddie Mac, the 30-year fixed rate was 6.8 percent last week, and we think it'll stay about the same. But another interest rate cut could mean a slight drop in the short-term one-year adjustable rate mortgage (ARM). |
| A typical household in the past two years saw about a $20,000 gain in equity. That's not an insignificant chunk. Homeowners see that wealth and use it to buy additional goods. |
| All housing market indicators are pointing to a move away from the frenzied record sales pace to, I would say, a more healthy rate of activity. |
| Any time there's job creation, historically prices don't go down. |
| Home-buying is not a snap decision -- people mentally prepare for it and search for homes, and this is a three-to-four-month process. Plus, even with the rise in mortgage rates, they're still below last year's figure and still close to 45-year lows. |
| I am confident in saying Atlanta will continue to see growth over the next year. The Atlanta area is less sensitive to changes in the housing market right now. |
| I feel comfortable with that, although 40 percent would be in the upper end of possibility. As for the lower end, getting double-digit appreciation will be an easy task for Seattle. |
| In the Midwest, where homes are very affordable and where home prices have risen much slower than the national average, sales are more dependent on job growth in the overall economy. |
| It's not surprising that Arkansas is up for the first three months compared to last year [for the same period ]. It is following the pattern of affordable regions doing better than the rest of the country. |
| Nationwide, the numbers clearly indicate the market is cooling, but cooling from the record sales pace in 2005. Now, we're experiencing what we characterize as healthy levels. |
| Obviously, many renters have become homeowners as rates have fallen. |
| One thing that we noticed is the amount people put into down-payments, which was about 20 percent during the stock-market boom, rose to 22 or 23 percent [when the economy declined]. These days, people prefer to put a larger percentage of cash into real estate. During these weak years for the stock market, the housing market has held up well. |
| Our experience says prices do not go down when there's job creation in the local economy. In local markets where they are flat on jobs, they could see prices decline. But we're projecting 2.3 million new jobs this year. The job market is providing a buffer. It's a counter force to rising rates. |
| People are moving out of these regions to the South and the West. They're putting more supply on the market at the same time there is less demand. |
| People have been saying that for 20 years. But in San Francisco, it's very difficult to build, so there's a supply constraint. Seattle is also encountering a supply-constraint situation. |
