While approximately 7,000 construction jobs were added in the Valley this year, another 7,000 are necessary to build an ideal 25,000 homes.

Real Estate Market Update Over the past year we have seen several factors that have stimulated housing demand: • Mortgages for 30-year fixed rate loans remained at or below 4 percent • Household income was supported by the labor market adding 3 million jobs across the nation • Consumer confidence rose to the most optimistic level in eight years

shopping to buy homes which is good news to the entire economy.

These three factors have worked to increase the number of households that are The Valley is a hot market again. This is excellent considering that Phoenix led the nation in the number of foreclosures during the recession. This time, however, it is not investors snapping up distressed properties, but owner-occupant buyers driving robust sales.

Sales volume is up 9.1% year-over-year while the median sales price increased 5.7% and average sales price increased 4.7% according to Tom Ruff of the Information Market.

In addition, more new home starts are driving growth. “In the past two months the number of building permits issued in the $200,000 to $500,000 range has increased,” said Michael Orr, director of the Center for Real Estate Theory and Practice.

But, turning to supply – the number of homes offered for sale has remained relatively low. According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the average supply of homes in the second quarter 2015 was 5.1 months, down from 5.5 months a year ago.

The real estate analytics firm, CoreLogic, reports that of the top 100 real-estate markets in the U.S., 14 are now overvalued – more than double the number that were at the end of the first quarter 2015.

Las Noches De Las Luminarias

Q3

The primary driver behind the overvaluation of more housing markets is supply. The factors keeping supply tight is a high number of owners who still owe more on their homes than they are worth and a pace of home construction that is still well below the rate of the early 2000s. The homes that do get built tend to be at higher price points, causing affordability issues for entry-level buyers.

The key to more choices for homebuyers is new inventory, but it’s coming slowly.

In 2014, construction of rental apartments and condos returned to pre-boom-andbust levels. But construction of single-family homes made it just halfway back to the normal annual average of 1.3 million starts according to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). The NAHB forecasts that single-family-home starts won’t hit a million until 2016.
