Another Big Leap for Home Prices

Daily Real Estate News | Wednesday, March 06, 2013

Another home price index is showing home prices surging: CoreLogic’s home price index shows that home prices nationwide in January rose 9.7 percent year-over-year, posting their largest percentage increase since April 2006.
It was the 11th consecutive month of month-over-month increases in existing-home sales, according to CoreLogic’s index.
"Home prices continued to gather steam across a broad swath of the country in January, continuing the positive trend we saw during most of 2012," says Anand Nallathambi, president and CEO of CoreLogic. "Many states across the western U.S. and along the East Coast saw average price gains of more than 6 percent, which is likely to boost home sale activity into the first half of 2013.”
The states seeing the biggest year-over-year rises in home prices in January were Arizona (20.1%), Nevada (17.4%), Idaho (14.9%), and California (14.1%), according to CoreLogic’s index. The only states not seeing year-over-year price increases were Delaware (-0.1%) and Illinois (-0.4%).

Miami Housing Market Recovering Quickly

Housing experts had once predicted that a full recovery in the Miami-Dade residential real estate market may take 10 years, but many are changing their tune after the lightning-fast turnaround experienced in 2012. Foreign money has fueled transaction volume and inventory absorption rates that once stood 40 months have been whittled down to 5 months or less. Although more cautious observers may warn of a new property bubble in the Sunshine State, the Miami-Dade Chamber of Commerce and others are forecasting future price growth and a positive outlook for the city. For more on this continue reading the following article from JDSupra.
At the height of the meltdown of the housing market in Miami-Dade County in 2008, the number of months needed to absorb existing inventory was at 29.7 months for single family housing and 40.4 months for condominiums but many experts believed the absorption period could be up to 10 years. Fast forward to the end of 2012 and these figures have decreased dramatically, the absorption period is now at 4.4 months for single family and 5.0 months for condominiums.  These current periods rank second lowest in the last 10 years, higher only than the 2004 market — the height of the housing bubble — when the respective figures were 3.4 months for single family residences and 4.5 months for condominiums.
This chart, distributed at a recent panel discussion of experts in the real estate business sponsored by the Miami-Dade Chamber of Commerce,  illustrates that condo inventory (red line) has been dropping since 2008, and condo sales (purple line) have been on an upward swing since 2008.

Accounting for the dramatic recovery of the market at a rate faster than anyone could have imagined is the significant influx of foreign money flowing into the market, a trend that is expected to continue. South American buyers, determining that there were deals to be had, have been snapping up multiple units. In addition, projects coming out of the ground are few and far between, essentially providing little or no additional inventory. It was only in 2012 that new projects started coming out of the ground.

Rosy Future Predicted for Miami’s Residential Real Estate Market

The panelists at the conference sponsored by the Miami-Dade Chamber of Commerce all acknowledged that Miami is a “hot” market based on national and international perceptions. The city has also seen a substantial influx of national and international regional offices, as many national and international companies are eager to reflect a Miami office on their business cards.
The panel presented a rosy picture for future growth and appreciation in the residential real estate market. Miami’s housing prices, while not at the bargain basement rates available in 2009 and 2010, are still considered cheap as compared to other national and international gateway cities. Substantial future price growth is expected.
