In our continuing effort to keep you informed about the real estate market here on Maui, we've attached the Realtor's Association of Maui's newsletter and sales statistics (see links below). Like much
of America, we're experiencing what economists are calling the worst economic slowdown since WWII, and Maui is now seeing the results of the short sales and REOs (bank owned/repossessed properties)
that have plagued Mainland real estate markets. Generally our market peaked in '05 but remained stable until September '08 when the number of sales decreased significantly. Median sales prices were
off by only around 5% up until January of this year, but since then, Maui has experienced a major downturn in tourism and a tenfold increase in short sales and REOs. Our year to date statistics (Jan.
'08 to May '08, compared to Jan. 09 to May '09) show that the number of homes sold is off by 45%, dollar volume is off by 55%, and the median sales prices are off by 12%--the latter partially due to
those REO and short sales. The number of condo sales is off by 50%; dollar volume off by $65%; and median sale price off by 31%. The number of land sales is off by 29%, but total dollar volume for
land is up 19%, and median sale price is up 13%. In general land statistics lead market trends, but we are reluctant to trust them as an indicator since there have been so few sales. Click on "May
2009" at the bottom of my Market Update for May's graphs, stats, and Terry Tolman's update letter.
While every property and escrow is unique, we've noted that in today's market, sellers who price their listings at 5% below the latest sale prices are successful in finding the currently price-oriented buyers. Most of those waiting for top dollar are doing just that, waiting, because there is about 60 months worth of listing inventory out there today. Ironically, many buyers are frustrated when their offers aren't accepted, but that's because they are often 10% (or more) below the latest sale prices. Truth is there are incredible opportunities out there for realistic buyers due to the wide variety and volume of listings, and the savvy seller who knows that it's a great time to move equity from one investment to a better one.
We hope you and yours are having a great year. Feel free to email or call us anytime if we can help you in any way. We appreciate the privilege of serving you and look forward to hearing from you soon.
The current Government purchases of mortgage backed securities are likely to end soon; this is because the perception among economists is that the economy and the housing market are starting to improve.
As many of you know, the Government has been purchasing mortgage backed securities since the beginning of January. Interest rates went down in December in anticipation of this taking place. At that time, we discussed that these rates were unlikely to last because of the upward pressure on interest rates as the economy begins to stabilize. Interest rates have increased about 1% over the past month. If the Government wasn’t purchasing mortgages, it is estimated that rates would be at least 1% higher than they are now.
According to all our sources (which are many and we track them daily), the Government is unlikely to continue to purchase mortgages after December of this year. The purchase program could also end abruptly (before December) if the economy stabilizes further, the housing market shows more signs of recovery or if there are any signs of inflation.
Even if the Government purchases mortgages through December, loans would have to be closed by November 15th. For a December Government purchase given the current 60-90 day escrows, properties would need to be in escrow by August to meet these windows.
As we have been telling our clients, NOW is the time to purchase and take advantage of the low rates, large selection and low purchase prices. People who buy now will be considered geniuses in the years to come!
