Real Estate Market

WASHINGTON – Jan. 9, 2007 – With spring right around the corner, many housing industry experts are hoping the real estate market will see some noticeable improvements. However, there is one snag that can potentially keep prices down – the large number of vacant homes for sale and rent. In the third quarter of 2006, there were 5.7 million vacant housing units, accounting for a record 4.6 percent of all U.S. homes, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The average in the 1990s was about 3.5 percent. To get this ratio back to normal, 1.3 million vacant homes need to be occupied. Lots of empty homes pushes home prices downward, says Credit Suisse analyst Ivy Zelman. Owners of unrented, unsold homes must pay for insurance, lawn service, taxes and, often, a mortgage. Seeing those costs pile up can motivate an owner to sell or rent at much lower prices. When a house sells at a lower price, other would-be buyers expect lower prices as well.

Mortgage rates

Rates on 30-year mortgages rose this week to 6.21 percent, the highest level since mid-November, after a better-than-expected employment report renewed inflation worries in financial markets. This is a good time to buy before the rates go higher. Contact Ocean View Realty Group today.
