17. Issues Affecting the Real Estate Market Rising mortgage interest rates Mortgage rates are low, but down payment requirements required and the credit worthiness of the borrower can make it difficult to secure a loan. Great rates are only available to those with a good credit and a substantial down payment. A real crunch may come if rates rise and credit standards also remain high.
18. Issues Affecting the Real Estate Market Competition from all cash buyers YTD - 53.22% of sales have been all cash. Often fueled by international investors and retirees flooded with cash after selling their homes elsewhere. First-time homebuyers often get squeezed out to the market.
19. Issues Affecting the Real Estate Market Low inventory of homes for sale Banks have slowed down foreclosures and investors have bought many homes to rent them out. New construction remains slow. In June, housing starts unexpectedly fell to the lowest level in almost a year. Sellers are entering the market, but many area holding off because they’re underwater or awaiting price gains.
20. Top Issues Affecting the Real Estate Market Millennials aren’t forming households at the usual rate In 2012, 39 percent of Millennials were in college. Many graduate with student debt. (Home ownership fell twice as fast from 2008 to 2012 among 30 year-olds with student debt as it did for loan-free 30-yearolds.) Nearly 54 percent of people under 25 were unemployed or underemployed in 2012. Wages for college grads are also down, and their credit score is roughly 620.
