Why Buy Today???

The current real estate market has been tough for the past two years, but looking at the bright side is always helpful. Real estate historically has been a great investment, and now with the prices dropped, it provides the maximum opportunity to obtain properties. Mortgage rates are historically down, due to the bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the $500 Billion bailout for banks. Now, if only Jumbo rates will fall.... Some lenders are again looking for jumbo loans, and have dropped their rates for those with excellent credit and low debt to income ratios. So, if you are looking to buy or sell real estate in the Charleston SC area, please give me a call. Kathy

Dennis Gartman - Housing Will Correct

Dennis Gartman had a letter he sends out every morning. we note that we shall see housing starts for January here in the US later this morning. It will be horrid reading, for “starts� will almost certainly be down in January vs. December and are swiftly approaching 500,000. Several years ago we wrote, as “starts� were above 2.0 million, that that rate was utterly unsustainable and that it would fall over time toward 500,000. We were branded heretics and scoffed at repeatedly. Ah, but here we are, approaching 500,000, and if we must put a figure to today’s report let’s call it 525,000 and be done with it. We shall not put forth a percentage change, for that can make us look inordinately foolish and we’ve opportunities enough for that in myriad other ways. The revisions to previous month’s figures are always so large as to render month-on-month percentage changes irrelevant. What is important is the annualised starts figure, and 525K is our “guess-timate.� We should remember at this point that December's “starts� of 550,000 were already a record low dating back to 1959 when this data series began. In reality, “starts� are probably nearing zero anyway, for all that is taking place in the housing business are “completions.� “Starts� are non-existent almost everywhere… ask any carpenter; ask any architect; ask any banker; ask any builder! They are getting their last partially built homes under cover, and they are finishing those homes that were and are close to finishing; otherwise, nothing! Were it not for the seasonal adjustment factor that adds “starts� to the January figures, real “starts� would be as close to zero as possible. To this end, we hear stories of the large and growing supply of existing homes on the market which is now at 12.9 months of supply as of December. This is a record “imbalance.� If one were to listen to the media, one would surmise that this imbalance shall never turn lower; shall always remain high and shall doom the US housing industry to years of depression. Nothing could be farther from the truth, however, for when “starts� fall toward zero, even the most modest sales efforts, along with the soon-to-be-witnessed destruction of new homes that are unsold and have to be torn down, will send that inventory/sales ratio plunging very, very quickly. Mark our words; by year’s end, that ratio will be back down into single digits, and by a year from now, the ratio will be “hat size� or lower and trending down. ***From the Dennis Gartman Letter.

Market Update from Mary Dupree, Carolina One Mortgage

Capital Markets Update:Leading up to Election Day, the market was upbeat (remember my email last Tuesday that rates were down to 5.625%?) and signs of relief that the campaigning and uncertainty is finally over dominated; even bucking some grim economic reports from Manufacturing and Factory orders. The market was also celebrating that there haven’t been any major bank blow ups that have characterized the crisis since Bear Stearns crumbled in March. After the elections however, Wall Street plunged as investors considered once again how deep a recession President-elect Barack Obama will face in January when he is sworn in. After a string of gains, jitters returned to the market, driving the Dow down nearly 500 points. The world markets also started to tumble on renewed economic fears. Wall Street in a sense didn’t prefer one candidate over the other; it just doesn’t like uncertainty and for the most part had predicted an Obama Presidency before the elections. It’s becoming clear that the President-elect’s policies will be guided not so much by promises and ideology, rather by the weak economy and the recent flood of government intervention. On Thursday, following the lead set by the US’s Federal Reserve with rate cuts, the world central banks slashed rates as well. The European Central Bank cut its key rate by half a point, joining the Bank of England, Swiss and Czech central banks as they confront the looming recession. What all of this means for us in the US is that the world markets are holding hands and working together to help stabilize the economies and not leaving one economy go down in flames alone. (now all we need is a fire and someone to start singing Kumbaya). The market is one crazy thing to try and figure out. Another crazy thing to try and figure out is last week’s mortgage rate swings. The market was in the tank, and most rates seem to have increased. Then again, the market has proven to disregard almost everything we have come to try and pattern. This week, we continue to receive corporate earnings and some quarterly projections from some of the biggest retailers. (you would hope Wall Street is going to lower their expectations for this holiday shopping season, right?) Mortgage Industry Headlines:LIBOR Rates Watch: Former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan has said that the LIBOR –OIS spread will serve as a good gauge of when credit has returned to "normal". Though the indicator has fallen from a high of 3.66 points set last month, it is still far above the 0.11 percentage points from before mid-September when the credit turmoil began. Libor rates have been trending downward since mid-October, when the Fed took the unprecedented move to flood 13 central banks around the globe with unlimited amounts of dollars. LIBOR, is a daily average of what 16 different banks charge other banks to lend dollars in the U.K. A number of U.S. programs aimed at easing funding concerns for banks and encouraging lending between financial institutions have also helped lower the LIBOR. (lowering interest rates, injecting capital into banks and providing insurance on all non-interest bearing accounts are examples). The bottom line is risk sentiment is showing that confidence in the credit market might be building but remains tight. Auto Industry Extending Their Hands Out: The Big Three discuss a possible bailout with House Speaker Nancy Peloci. GM still owns 49% of GMAC, which owns a large mortgage business, called Residential Credit Corp. The US auto industry is re-tooling and with the President-elect having won Michigan overwhelmingly with union support, they’re looking to cash in their payback sooner rather than later. The Auto industry executives are starting to shout loudly that if Uncle Sam can "lend" $700 bln to Wall Street, why can’t it lend automakers a mere $20 billion? Massive Effort To Save Mortgages Via Loan-Modifications: A Under intense political pressure to address the foreclosure problem, the banking industry is taking action to modify loans (yeah, its called "you got $250 billion, now use it correctly"). Chase launched a plan to modify the terms of $70 billion in mortgages for borrowers who are behind on their payments. BoA already has two loan-modification pools in place. Economists and government officials believe that the economy and financial markets can't fully revive until there is a halt to the decline in housing prices.

Luxury Home Market in Charleston

Luxury homes are still selling in Charleston. Yesterday, 153 N. Plaza Court, in Mt. Pleasant closed for $889,000 - a full price contract. Full price contracts are almost unheard of in today's market, with so many choices, and so many homes on the market. This particular buyer knew the condominium complex, and felt that this was the rock bottom pricing, thus offering a full price contract.

Charleston Ranks on Conde Nast Traveler's Award

Charleston was named as the number two spot in Conde Nast Traveler's annual Readers' Choice Awards, bumping New York out of their previous spot. Although San Francisco remained the top choice, Charleston has moved up. The rankings will be published in Conde Nast Traveler's November issue, with almost 33,000 readers voting. Kathy

Luxury Condo Incentives

The developers of the Tides Condominiums are offering incentives to encourage buying of their remaining inventory of 3 years interest off their current pricing. That amount is calculated by assuming there would be a 20% downpayment, and at the current interest rate for jumbo loans. In some cases, this amount would be almost $500,000. In addition to the above incentive, there is an additional 3 years of regime fees being paid by the developers. These condos are priced to sell, and the developers are willing to deal. Kathy

Luxury homes in Charleston are still selling

Despite grim news from the stock market and the housing market, luxury homes in the Charleston area are still selling. There is still belief in this market for homes that are considered "choice" luxury properties. Locally, homes have been reduced and if the buyer has good credit, there is money to lend. This week, I had a buyer who made a choice to put down over 50% of the sales price of their home to bring the loan down to conforming ($417,000) so that their interest rate would not be considered a jumbo loan. There are also other avenues a buyer can use, such as a first and second mortage, which can be cheaper than obtaining a jumbo loan. Kathy

A great time to buy a luxury home in Charleston SC

With the downturn in the stock market, and uncertainty in many loan situations, now is a great time to buy a luxury home in the Charleston SC area. Many of the listings have become more realistic in their pricing, and are willing to take less for their property knowing they will be buying again for less. Finding property that always seems "desirable" such as waterfront property, penthouses, and properties within minutes of historic downtown Charleston, will have an insulation factor even if the economy has a downturn. People will always want luxury real estate - and there is only so much waterfront property. Kathy

Luxury Home Financing Still Strong

Carolina One Real Estate mortgage partner, Carolina One Mortgage is still lending. Guaranty Bank's CEO, Gerald Levy, has issued the following: September 30, 2008 STATE OF THE MORTGAGE BUSINESS AND WHY WE REMAIN STRONG Dear Shelter Mortgage Friends and Family, This year has brought challenging times to our industry. The current downturn, which initially began with subprime mortgages, has clearly been more extensive than originally thought. This week, the federal government is deciding on how to best help us through this difficult cycle. Throughout this crisis I have written about the impact the lending problems were having on the mortgage business. We’ve watched many of our long-standing competitors go under or get purchased by larger banks. Today we mark the end of our fiscal year and look forward to a new year with new opportunities. As we plan for the coming year, we also reflect on why we have remained strong, and why we will endure. First and most importantly, Shelter Mortgage is a subsidiary of Guaranty Bank, a federally chartered, well-capitalized bank. The bank has more than ample liquidity to fund all loans that Shelter Mortgage can originate. And with over 175 retail bank locations, we have the capability to raise large amounts of deposits to assure continued strong liquidity. The Paulson plan, currently being worked through Congress, will move problem loans off bank balance sheets and provide stability to real estate markets. This move will help banks begin to lend again and unfreeze the credit markets. Karl Case, part of the highly respected Case-Schiller index of housing prices, said as recently as September 12, that there is “cause for optimism.� He noted that of the twenty metropolitan areas covered by the index, nine show signs of home prices slightly improving. He went on to point out that affordability has neared a level seen at the end of past housing slumps. Since Guaranty Bank was chartered in 1923, we have been through many difficult periods including: the depression of the 1930’s the 1979/1980 run-up on the prime rate, up to 20% the savings and loan crisis of the mid 1980’s the 1994-95 severe downturn in home sales Guaranty Bank experienced all these events and came out stronger, as we will through this upheaval. After 85 years we look forward to celebrating our centennial year in 2023. We hope that the lessons of the current market will demonstrate the strength and vision of our model to our many lending partners and associates. We look forward to continuing to serve our partners and customers for years to come. Best regards, Gerald J Levy Feel free to contact my office in-house lender, Mary Dupree, at 843/856-3963 for your mortgage needs. Kathy Sweet
