Report Affirms How Location Affects Value

Report Affirms How Location Affects Value

You often hear real estate agents mention that real estate is local.  What happens in other areas of the country is not necessarily indicative of what happens in Martin County real estate.  This has been true for a long, long time.  Even within small geographical areas, the local nature of real estate may see one community struggling while a nearby neighbor flourishes.  There are lots of reasons for this and with the current real estate market difficulties, it is more true than ever.  Look at this recent article from the Miami Herald:

A ZIP Code-level report on South Florida’s housing market shows values soaring in some neighborhoods, plunging in others.

BY TOLUSE OLORUNNIPA

TOLORUNNIPA@MIAMIHERALD.COM

In South Florida’s location-specific housing market, some neighborhoods are enjoying 20 percent appreciation since last year, while others continue to plunge, down as much as 30 percent, according to a new report from real estate research firm Zillow.
Neighborhoods in negative territory—mostly low-income and inner-city locales—outnumber the region’s affluent ZIP Codes, which are on the upswing, so overall numbers still show a downward trend. The median home in South Florida had a value of $140,900 during the second quarter of this year, down 5.4 percent from last year, the report found. More than 45 percent of homes are underwater on mortgages, and 44 percent of homes sold for a loss in June.

Stuart FL Buyers Taking a Harder Look at Today’s Credit Score Models

 Stuart FL Buyers Taking a Harder Look at Today’s Credit Score Models

It may not be the first factor you look at when you begin planning to buy a Stuart FL house, but unless you are in the rare position of being able to make an all-cash purchase, sooner or later your credit score will become a prominent factor. That’s why this month’s get-together in Washington held some information that could ultimately become pretty important for both Martin County home buyers and sellers.

The meeting was held at the National Association of Realtors headquarters, with participants that included HUD Secretary Julian Castro, credit score industry representatives from FICO and Vantage Score, and other experts in research, government, and real estate. This might seem to be the kind of gathering (“Symposium,” in this case) that is usually more productive of eyes glazing over than much else, but for Martin County home buyers and sellers, this one was different.

credit reportThe subject was “Credit Access”—how companies determine the credit scores that guide lenders’ decisions on who will and won’t be offered home loans. The consensus was (and is) that current credit score formulas could stand some improvement. Secretary Castro’s Keynote set the table. He said that there is a recognized need to find new ways to construct credit scores that are more sensitive to “getting at” the bottom line responsibility potential borrowers have shown in their lives; credit scores that will predict how they will pay down their mortgages. “There’s been a disconnect there,” he said.

Given that this is the single reason that credit scores exist at all, that seems like quite a statement to make, particularly with the credit scoring companies right there in the room. No eye-glazing going on, I suspect.

Now it’s true that FICO and Vantage Score have already been fine-tuning some of their credit scoremethods. Local buyers may have already have seen their Stuart FL credit scores improving when non-recurring problems (like tardy medical bill payments) were de-emphasized. But on a wider scale, there was considerable discussion about the need to adapt to lifestyle shifts that are taking place. The way Americans live their lives—particularly the way they use technology—has changed, and will continue changing. Blanket shifts in lifestyles make some behaviors different predictive value than they used to have: for instance, many millennial and minority consumers “don’t use credit in the same way households did in the past.”

A representative from Moody’s Analytics pointed out that most conventional loans are currently made to borrowers with credit scores about 740—which is 20 points higher than was the case during the housing boom. In today’s tougher economy, that makes it likely that some Stuart FL buyer’s credit scores would benefit if HUD is able to follow through on its efforts “to improve credit access to Americans” without adding to lender risk.

It’s in everyone’s interest that credit ratings be accurate predictors of repayment patterns. With interest rates continuing to be at bargain basement levels, it couldn’t be more important, because it also continues to be a fantastic time to be in Martin County’s real estate market—and to give me a call!
