It’s pretty much a given that foreclosures are a drag on home prices. But how much, exactly? A study by researchers at Harvard and MIT, which analyzed years of sales data in Massachusetts, estimated that foreclosed homes sell for an average of 27 percent less than non-foreclosure comps. They lower the value of homes around them to boot. A non-foreclosed home takes a 1 percent hit in price for each foreclosure within about 250 feet, the study suggests — meaning the effect worsens as the number of nearby foreclosures mount.

Continuation of the debate…..are strategic defaulters good or bad..for the economy… The real estate industry must take a stance on strategic defaulting that takes into consideration the true ramifications of walking away. The popular consensus in the real estate industry is that a owner should pay…regardless if the house is underwater or not. Those making this argument suggest that non-payers…strategic walkers…are a continued drag on the housing market and the economy. The other side of the argument is that owners who continue to pay on an underwater home..are the true drag on the economy. The idea with this side of […] Click Here To View More

I watched this video a couple times….and read other interviews with HUD head-honcho Shaun Donovan…and here is what I am concluding: The Obama Administration is not going to pressure the banks into any sort of moratorium. They are leaving up to the states attorney generals to explore the legal issues with MERS and the robo-signing scandal. SO, time will tell. What the Obama Administration IS going to do is use this opportunity to leverage servicers to do more short sales and…when possible…loan modifications.

Yale Professor Robert Shiller (from the S&P Case/ Schiller discusses the uncertainty in housing.. For the growing number of struggling homeowners in this country, more help is on the way. Additional aid from the federal government will begin making its way to them next month — one program would help qualified homeowners refinance their mortgages after seeing their property values fall below the amount they owe, and the other includes another round of funding to help the unemployed or underemployed with their payments. It’s easy to see the need for such programs. Theoretically, they keep people in their homes and […] Click Here To View More

Reality is we have a massive over supply which will only be solved with liquidation. Agents, please (PLEASE!) be prepared for the worst and hope […] Click Here To View More
