16th Annual Fisher Center Real Estate Conference Financial Markets Supply/Demand
What Rates Don’t Show • Much higher pricing for the default option • 25%-35% down-payment requirements (as opposed to 20% before) to get the best rate. • No loans with less than 20% down-payment • No loans without income verification, and ability to cover the payments, independent of LTV • Very hard to get bridge loans when buying and selling property simultaneously.
What Rates Don’t Show (continued) • Securitization market is still dead. The ratings agencies are irrelevant, no substitutes yet. The substitutes that are coming up are likely to make the marketplace even less able to transact efficiently. • The loans are held in bank’s own portfolio, hence there is a great variability in bank’s appetite for the loans – the loan marketplace has become extremely heterogeneous.

What Housing Inventory and Affordability Don’t Show • The real affordably is even considerably greater than implied since the average price is much higher than the medium (the latest is about 190%). • Increasing REO inventory; REO liquidation will continue depressing the prices • 20% of non-agency borrowers can’t afford to buy because of the increased down-payment requirements. It will take time to build up savings.
