Storm & High Winds Take Down Frisco TX Silo!

Tuesday, March 8, 2016
by Christie Cannon

I have talked about the Frisco TX;s unique silos previously.  Unfortunately, in a storm today, one silo fell to the wind!  It appears that high winds took the silo off its foundation! 
Here is to hoping that Frisco is able to move forward on a project with the existing space that will continue to bring value to our great city!
Best of luck & prayers to any one affected by the storm.

Real Estate News: 5 Real Estate Trends in 2016

Monday, December 28, 2015
by Christie Cannon

Realtor.com & the National Association of REALTORs just posted their predictions for the top 5 industry trends in 2016.

 

  • A Return to Normal for Real Estate

In the words of Skywalker, "it will bring balance to the force."  While sales will continue strong, most markets will see a return to the more modest gains that are reflected in a balanced (& more sustainable) market.

  • Generational Data Supports Strong Selling Season in 2016 
In 2015, Millennial buyers represented almost 1/3 of home purchases.  This trend is expected to continue in 2016; as well as an expected return of financially recovering Gen-Exers & Baby Boomers.  According to the NAR, Gen-X buyers will be entering their "prime earning" years, just as Baby Boomers are tradtionally seeking to down size &/or relocate for retirement. More predictive analysis for 2016 (several years out) can be found here!
 
  • Builders will Transition to More Affordable Housing
As balance returns to pre-existing home sales and credit availability improves for first-time buyers, builders will see more attractiveness in building products to fill these niches.  Likewise, with the increased capital in the market from 2015, the direction of growth is already trending to the "out-skirts" of traditional suburb areas where land prices are more affordable.
 
  • Interest Rate Rise Will Affect the Higher-Price Markets
The FED has already increased interest rates this past month.  Additional increases are expected in 2016, with mortgage rates predicted to rise up to 60 basis points. As the rate increases, affordability will drop.  In areas where the move-up buyer is a significant part of the market, even a small "affordability" drop can have significant affect.
 
  • Rents Will Continue Their Rise (in some areas meteorically)
In more than 85% of market areas, the average rent to income ratio already exceeds 30%.  Demand aside, increases in property taxes & tax valuations result in double digit rent growth as those cost are passed from landlord to tenant.

Continued Drop in Distressed Home Sale Prices

Sunday, November 29, 2015
by Christie Cannon

In the latest Existing Home Sale Report from the NAR (National Association of REALTORs), the NAR is reporting that less than 6% of the national market represents distressed sales.  This is a sharp decrease from 2014 reporting at 9%. At their most recent peak, distressed property sales represented a full 35% of all national real estate sales.  6% represents the lowest figure since 2008, when the NAR began tracking this metric. 

Existing Home Sales continue steady, with year-over-year sales up 3.9%.  Likewise, inventory remains low at approximately 4.8-months supply, versus a balanced market at 6-months.  The national median home price has seen an increase of 5.9% to $219,000.  It is important to consider, that the sharp increase in median price, at least for many markets, represents a regaining of previously lost sale prices.

Wednesday, November 11, 2015
