Foreclosure Inventory Plummets! Team Thayer #realestate #market #foreclosure #housing #news

Foreclosures have been on a rapid steady decline for the last five-plus years since hitting their peak in 2010, so there were no surprises contained inCoreLogic’s December 2015 National Foreclosure Report released on Tuesday.

CoreLogic reported that the nationwide foreclosure inventory totaled 433,000 in December, or 1.1 percent of all homes with a mortgage, which was down by almost one-quarter (23.8 percent) from December 2014 and the lowest foreclosure inventory level for any one month since December 2007. The number of completed foreclosures in December 2015 totaled 32,000, down 22 percent from 41,000 in December 2014 and down 72.8 percent from their peak of nearly 118,000 reached in September 2010.
The steep decline in distressed inventory may be indicating a further return to “normal” for the housing market, but at the same time it is affecting available non-distressed inventory, according to Anand Nallathambi, president and CEO of CoreLogic. In CoreLogic’s most recent report on distressed sales, the share of residential home sales that were distressed was 11.9 percent for November 2015, down from their peak of 32.4 percent reached in January 2009.
“The supply of distressed inventory continues to shrink rapidly. While this is positive for the housing market overall, it also drives a decline in the inventory of affordable for-sale homes,” Nallathambi said. “The lack of housing stock, particularly affordable inventory, is a growing issue and will limit a full housing recovery in the short to medium term.”
In December 2015, serious delinquencies (mortgage loans 90 days or more past due, in foreclosure, or REO) had also fallen to levels not seen since 2007. CoreLogic reported the number of serious delinquencies in December 2015 as 1.2 million, or 3.2 percent of all mortgages nationwide. It was a decline of 23.3 percent from the previous December and the lowest level for serious delinquencies since 2007.
“Reflecting on the full-year foreclosure results for 2015, we can see that completed foreclosures are down more than 20 percent for the year, which is the lowest level since 2006, before the crisis,” said Dr. Frank Nothaft, chief economist for CoreLogic. “Maryland, which can be described as a suburb of the solid D.C. market, led the way with a 59-percent decline in foreclosures in 2015.”

5 home selling mistakes with Team Thayer 1. Trying to sell your home yourself In this DIY era, the urge to try to sell your home yourself to save money can beckon like the smell of oven-fresh cookies at an open house. Resist.  Working with a licensed agent  helps ensure you’re not leaving money on the table as a result of an off-target listing price or a mistake in the many steps that lead to a final sale. Sell your sofa yourself online. List your home with a professional. 2. Picking the wrong Realtor Not all agents are equal. Just because your college buddy dabbles in the industry doesn't mean he’s the best guy to sell your home. You want experience. You want to  work with an agent  who has a depth of knowledge. Invite your buddy to the house-warming party.  Find an agent  who can truly perform. Do you research.  Top Home Sales Mistakes 3. Pricing your home too high Sometimes it’s good to aim high.
