Shadows are Disappearing

Shadows are Disappearing

As anyone with his finger on the pulse of the industry knows, homes are being bought. What’s taken S&P by surprise is that they’re being picked up faster than they expected. Basically at the end of the second quarter there were $405 billion worth of properties in the shadow inventory. Compare that to $384 billion...

Where Did the Foreclosures All Go?

Where Did the Foreclosures All Go?

Where have all the foreclosures gone? That’s what a lot of concerned people are asking. I don’t mean where is the giant shadow inventory of foreclosures and pending foreclosures. Don’t worry, those are still piling up and will be skewing the market for a good long while. What I’m talking about is, how does our...

MERS Can’t Foreclose on You

MERS Can’t Foreclose on You

If you had to assign blame for the robo-signing crisis/scandal/horror story, would you in a million years have picked “Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. (MERS)” as your scapegoat? I don’t think I would have. I mean, who’s even heard of them? Well, okay, that’s not quite fair. They do currently manage half of all mortgages...

Anti-Flipping Rule – History!

Anti-Flipping Rule – History!

For the rest of 2011 house flipping will officially be easier with less restrictions. The FHA announced the “anti-flipping rule” is suspended for the entire year which will accelerate the resale of foreclosed homes. They’re worried what too many homes sitting on the market will do and they’re hoping this will help stabilize the housing...

Housing Prices – Shadow Inventory

Housing Prices – Shadow Inventory

Standard & Poor’s is below standard in their reporting and poor on original content. Sure they run a great stock index! But as far as their amazing insights into the housing market and the short sale industry, I’m not impressed. Maybe after a few more shots, but hey, it’s only 9:30 and the morning is...

A Few Good Investors

A Few Good Investors

I’ve decided to be generous. You’ve all heard of my generous nature before. I’m kind to small animals. I rarely take candy from babies, and even then only if they’re not looking. But now I’ve decided to pull out all the stops. I’m going to buy up the entire shadow inventory of delinquent and foreclosed...

Home Sales Up, Surprisingly

Home Sales Up, Surprisingly

Here’s a bright spot of news for you. August’s figures for previously-owned home sales rose. And compared to the tremendous dip they took in July, this was pretty surprising news. If the current rise of 7.6% holds, we’re on pace to sell 4.13 million homes. That’s not great, but it’s far better than the measly...

Speedier Short Sales on the Way

Speedier Short Sales on the Way

Apparently, ServiceLink, a Pittsburgh based company, has dramatically decreased the turn around time in a short sale. They’ve beat the national average by a third. That’s 30 days instead of the more common 90. And from start to finish, they’re claiming 75 days instead of 5 months. Now that’s a pretty good claim. How did...

Shadow Strikes Again

Shadow Strikes Again

According to Altos Research, home prices will start 2011 at lower levels than they started 2009. Yeah, they’re pretty pessimistic over at Altos. You’d think out in California they’d be a little more relaxed. They, like oh, most of us, have heard about the “shadow” inventory that’s just looming in the background. Well, they predict...

Tax Credit – What Did It Do?

Tax Credit – What Did It Do?

So what did the home-buyer tax credit do for us? And what did it do for the country? Here’s one potential problem: the elevated volume of transactions may have skewed the market. Re/Max reported that June levels are still up from a year ago, but only time will tell if people are still riding the...
