Low Bank Foreclosure Inventory Reduces Market Share of Cash Sales! Team Thayer #realestate #housing #market #foreclosure #economic #news #oregon

With less REO properties available for investors, declines in REO sales triggered a further decline for national cash sales. Not all states experienced the same level of decline though, according to the latest Cash Sales and Distressed Sales Data Report from CoreLogic.
Cash sales accounted for 29.7 percent of total home sales in July 2016, down 1.9 percentage points year over year from July 2015. Prior to the housing crisis, the cash sales share of total home sales averaged approximately 25 percent. CoreLogic reports that if the cash sales share continues to fall at the same rate it did in July 2016, the share should hit 25 percent by mid-2018.
REO sales, no surprise, had the largest cash sales share in July 2016 at 57.6 percent. Following behind, resales had the next highest cash sales share at 29.4 percent with short sales close behind at 28.1 percent and newly constructed homes at 15 percent.
While the percentage of REO sales within the all-cash category remained high, REO transactions have been in decline since peaking in January 2011. REO sales made up 4.3 percent of the distressed sales share of total home sales while short sales made up 2.9 percent in July 2016.
Most notably, CoreLogic reported that the distressed sales share of 7.2 percent in July 2016 was the lowest distressed sales share since September 2007. As with cash sales, the pre-crisis share of distressed sales was traditionally significantly than that of the post-crisis share. If the current year-over-year decrease in the distressed sales share continues, it will reach that "normal" 2-percent mark in mid-2018.
Eight states did record higher distressed sales shares in July 2016 compared with a year earlier, though. Maryland had the largest share of distressed sales of any state at 19.4 percent, followed by Connecticut at 18.6 percent, Michigan at 17.8 percent, New Jersey at 15.6 percent, and Illinois at 15.5 percent. North Dakota had the smallest distressed sales share at 2.5 percent.
While some states stand out as having high distressed sales shares, only North Dakota and the District of Columbia are close to their pre-crisis levels, says CoreLogic, each within one percentage point.
On the cash sales side, New York had the largest share of any state at 44.6 percent, followed by Alabama at 43.6 percent, Florida at 39.6 percent, New Jersey at 37.3 percent, and finally Indiana at 37 percent.

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.

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.
