Rising prices and mortgage rates make homeownership unaffordable across most of the U.S. ATTOM has released its secondquarter 2022 U.S. Home Affordability Report, showing that median-priced single-family homes and condos are less affordable in the second quarter of 2022 compared to historical averages in 97 percent of counties across the nation with enough data to analyze. That was up from 69 percent of counties that were historically less affordable in the second quarter of 2021, to the highest point since 2007, just before the housing market crashed during the Great Recession of the late 2000s. The report also shows that the portion of average wages nationwide required for major home-ownership expenses has risen this quarter to 31.5 percent as the median price of a single-family home has hit a new high of $349,000 and 30-year mortgage rates have shot up above 5 percent. The percentage of average wages consumed by those expenses has risen at the fastest quarterly and annual pace since at least 2000. “Extraordinarily low levels of homes for sale combined with strong demand have caused home prices to soar over the last few years,” said Rick Sharga,

executive vice president of market intelligence at ATTOM. “But homes remained relatively affordable due to historically low mortgage rates and rising wages. With interest rates almost doubling, homebuyers are faced with monthly mortgage payments that are between 40 and 50 percent higher than they were a year ago – payments that many prospective buyers simply can’t afford.” The report determined affordability for average wage earners by calculating the amount of income needed to meet major monthly home ownership expenses — including mortgage, property taxes and insurance — on a median-priced singlefamily home, assuming a 20 percent down payment and a 28 percent maximum “front-end” debt-to-income ratio. That required income was then compared to annualized average weekly wage data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Compared to historical levels, median home prices in 560 of the 575 counties analyzed in the second quarter of 2022 are less affordable than in the past. The latest number is up from 459 of the same group of counties in the first quarter of

2022, 397 in the second quarter of 2021 and just 251, or less than half, two years ago. That increase has continued as the median national home price has spiked 16 percent over the past year while average annual wages across the country have grown just 6 percent. Major ownership costs on medianpriced single-family homes and condos around the U.S. now require more than 28 percent of the average $67,587 wage in the U.S. - a ceiling considered affordable by common lending standards. The current level of 31.5 percent stands at the highest point since the second quarter of 2007 and is up from 26 percent in the first quarter of 2022 and 23.9 percent in the second quarter of last year. Both increases mark the largest jumps since at least 2000. Affording a home across the nation has gotten significantly tougher in recent months at a time when the U.S. housing market has roared ahead for the 11th straight year but also faces notable headwinds that could slow it down. One major force remains: home prices have

Voluntary employee departures spike 41 percent Aon plc (NYSE: AON) reported a 41 percent spike in voluntary employee departures last year amid the “Great Resignation” in the United States, according to data from the firm’s Salary Increase and Turnover Study. Aon, a leading global professional services firm, reported 21.8 percent of U.S. employees left their jobs in 2021, of which 17.2 percent departed voluntarily. In 2020, 19.7 percent left employers, of which 11.9 percent departed voluntarily. “The spike we’ve seen in voluntary departures quantifies the challenges employers face during this period we call the ‘Great Resignation,’” said Michael Burke, CEO for Human

Capital Solutions at Aon. “Employers must look to the underlying root cause and not merely treat the symptoms. They will need to review total rewards strategies and look at resilience, agility, wellbeing and purpose in order to retain and attract top talent in their respective industries. A tight labor market will continue to challenge employers in the near term.” Figures come from Aon’s Human Capital Solutions biannual Salary Increase and Turnover Study, which is a global survey of nearly 2,000 employers. The report provides insights on salary increases and employee retention powered by industry-leading data and analytics that reflects how broader economic

circumstances impact the talent landscape. The study also shows: • Average budgeted salary increases in 2022 reached 5.2 percent, up from 4.5 percent last year in the U.S. This includes merit raises and promotions. • Forty percent of U.S. employers say they will hire aggressively in 2022, while 46 percent plan to hire at a normal pace, 13 percent will be very selective and 1 percent will freeze hiring. • Energy (10.6 percent), construction (15 percent) and financial services (15.6 percent) had the lowest voluntary departure rates among industries measured. The report includes measurable data samples

from 10 industries, which include business consulting, construction/real estate, energy, entertainment, financial services, life sciences, manufacturing, retail/ hospitality, technology and transportation. “We use these data insights to provide advice and solutions that give employers from an array of industries the clarity and confidence needed to make better decisions to protect and grow their business,” said Michael Deeks, global head of the data business for Human Capital Solutions at Aon. “It’s a hot job market out there and as a result, we are seeing turnover grow and many companies allocate more money in their salary budgets.” Staff report

Construction spending dips in May as new residential activity stalls, while nonresidential projects decline for third consecutive month Total construction spending edged down 0.1 percent in May as spending on new houses and apartments stalled, while public and private nonresidential construction slumped, according to an analysis the Associated General Contractors of America released today of federal spending data. Association officials said the construction industry’s capacity to build projects was being limited by workforce shortages and supply chain problems. “Contractors say demand remains strong for nonresidential projects but they are having trouble both getting materials on time and hiring enough workers,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “The industry’s unemployment rate was down to 3.8 percent in May, a sign of

how scarce experienced workers are.” Construction spending, not adjusted for inflation, totaled $1.78 trillion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate in May, 0.1 percent below the upwardly revised April rate and 9.7 percent higher than in May 2021. Private nonresidential construction spending declined for the third month in a row, slipping 0.4 percent from April, although the May rate was 3.7 percent higher than in May 2021. Public construction spending decreased for the second-straight month, falling 0.8 percent from April and 2.7 percent from the year-ago rate. Residential spending rose 0.2 percent for the month but the gains were limited to improvements to owner-occupied housing. New single- and multifamily spending were each virtually unchanged

from April. The downturn in nonresidential construction spending was widespread. The largest segment, power—comprising electric, oil, and gas projects—slipped 1.0 percent in May. Spending on commercial construction—warehouse, retail, and farm projects—declined 0.9 percent. Educational construction spending decreased 0.5 percent. Among the five largest segments, only manufacturing construction increased, by 1.2 percent, as work began or continued on numerous large factory projects. Association officials said that contractors are having to slow schedules and even turn down work because of challenges they are having finding workers and procuring materials needed for projects. They urged federal,

state and local leaders to boost funding for and to support new education and training programs that expose future workers to construction skills and opportunities. And they urged the Biden administration to remove tariffs and explore other ways to ease supply chain challenges. “Contractors have the work, but they don’t have enough workers or materials to keep pace with strong demand for construction in many parts of the country,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “Exposing more people to the opportunities and benefits of working in construction and fixing the supply chain will boost construction activity and employment in much of the country.” Staff report

CBRE arranges $20.75M sale of adaptive reuse development in South End

CBRE has arranged the $20.75 million sale of The Avenues at Atherton, a 30,875-square-foot adaptive reuse development in Charlotte’s South End to a Texas-based investment company. Patrick Gildea, Mike Burkard, Matt Smith, Steve Shields and Grayson Hawkins of CBRE represented the seller, Charlotte-based Abacus Capital. Situated on 1.37 acres at 2041 South Boulevard, the property was built in 1957 and renovated in 2019. Abacus

“The Avenues at Atherton is walking distance to the light rail, Uptown Charlotte, Atherton Mill, and the active or planned development of more than 3,000 apartments and 1.3 million square feet of new office space. Photo courtesy CBRE.”

Capital acquired the project in 2018 for $7.3M. The ten-suite retail property was 78 percent occupied at the time sale, with tenants including Snooze Eatery, Silverlake Ramen, Atrium Health, South End Dental Studio, Polished Nail Salon, Rockbox, Capsule and Tous Les Jours bakery. The Avenues at Atherton includes 69 on-site parking spaces and nine street spaces with additional neighborhood street parking. “South End is one of the hottest submarkets in the United States,” said CBRE’s Gildea. “The inherent land value

MORTGAGES FROM PAGE 1 continued to soar in 2022 as a large cohort of homebuyers continues chasing an extremely small supply of properties for sale. Elevated demand has helped push the national median home price up over the past year at more than double the pace of wage growth. But as mortgage rates have steadily climbed this year from just above 3 percent to near 6 percent for a 30-year loan, costs have escalated for buyers. Higher interest rates, growing inflation, soaring fuel costs and a declining stock market all threaten the housing market, which could already be showing signs of strain – May marked the fifth consecutive month of lower existing home sales than the prior month. As historic affordability continues to decline, major home-ownership expenses on typical homes are now unaffordable to average local wage earners during the second quarter of 2022 in 388, or

Post-renovation, Avenues has provided a unique niche to smaller and midsized retail tenants who would otherwise have trouble finding space in the highly coveted South End market.” “Abacus Capital secured long-term leases with annual escalations with the tenants of this property with no rollover until 2027,” said CBRE’s Burkard. “That, coupled with this bull’s eye of a location in the epicenter of Charlotte’s growing South End district, often described as a ‘walker’s paradise,’ created lots of interest in this property.” “Abacus Capital is pleased to have led the successful round-trip of this irreplaceable asset,” said Wes McAdams, managing partner at Abacus Capital. “Stewarding the reposition of this highly visible project from The Pavilion at South End to The Avenues at Atherton over the past few years was a privilege – we are especially proud that along with the physical transformation we were able to deliver a great economic outcome for our clients and partners as well. Abacus would like to thank our sell-side advisors at CBRE for the terrific execution during an otherwise challenging capital markets environment.” The Avenues at Atherton is walking distance to the light rail, Uptown Charlotte, Atherton Mill, and the active or planned development of more than 3,000 apartments and 1.3 million square feet of new office space.

ENNICO: If you own a business, these clauses need to be in your will “I realize your column is for people who own their own businesses. That’s not me, but I need your help. I am an attorney in a small Midwestern town who specializes in wills and estates. A client of mine, who owned a local franchised business, recently died, and I am trying to sort out his estate. His wife is emotionally shattered and cannot function right now out of grief. There is nothing in my client’s will to help me figure out what to do with his business, and the franchise is insisting that they will take over the business in 60 days if we can’t find someone to take the business over. What can I do in a situation like this?” First of all, shame on this franchise, whoever they are. The death of a franchisee should never, ever be grounds for them seizing the business from a grieving widow. Sadly, many of the “death and disability of franchisee” provisions I see in franchise agreements read exactly the same as this one: the estate has an unreasonably short period of time to name a successor to take over the business (often this person needs to pay a fee to do so, which adds insult to injury), and if the estate cannot comply, the franchise seizes the business, leaving the estate with nothing. When reviewing franchise agreements for my clients, I always try to re-negotiate these provisions to make them more fair and reasonable, but obviously it’s too late to do that in this case. What the franchise should do is contact their other franchisees in your vicinity, inform them of the situation, and have one of them manage and operate your deceased client’s business for several months until you can find a successor for your client’s business. The other franchisee should be allowed to keep 100% of the profits from your client’s business during this period as compensation for their services. Ideally, if the other franchisee’s territory shares a boundary with your client’s, the other franchisee may make you an offer to buy the business from the estate, which will spare you the burden of finding a successor. What you should do is call the franchise, speak directly to its president or chief executive officer, explain the situation and request temporary help from another local franchisee. If the franchise refuses to do this, send them a nasty letter by certified mail letting them know you will resist any attempt on their part to seize the business “to the fullest extent of the law.” Sometimes even the threat of litigation will be enough to get the franchise’s attention and shame them into doing the right thing; after all, the whole franchise system will be watching to see how the franchise handles this situation. Having said all that, this problem could easily have been solved if your client had put a few very simple clauses into his will before he passed away. Anyone who owns a business should talk to their attorneys and at least consider putting some or all of these clauses into their next will. Clause No. 1: Give Your Executor (or Someone Else) Power to Run the Business. Your will should contain a clause giving your executor or trustee (the person legally responsible for managing your estate) broad powers to run the business until a successor or purchaser can be found. If you suspect your widow or next of kin won’t be able to handle the responsibilities,

this clause should specifically give your executor or trustee the power to designate another individual (such as your estate attorney, a key employee or a nearby franchisee) to exercise these powers. Be sure to let the individual know you have done this (and whatever you do, please DO NOT designate me!). Clause No. 2: Give Designated Successors a “Right of First Refusal” to Acquire the Business. If you want your children, or another close relative, to acquire your business, you can instruct your executor or trustee to give them the opportunity to buy the business within a certain time period after your death. This is called a “right of first refusal” -- your children will have X days to purchase the business at an agreed-upon price before the business is offered for sale to anyone else or is listed with business brokers. Clause No. 3: Reference Any “Buy-Sell” Agreements. If there are partners in the business who have signed a “buy-sell” agreement (requiring them to purchase your interest upon your death), be sure to reference this agreement in your will so your executor or trustee, and your estate attorney, knows of its existence. It isn’t fun to think about your own death, but the sooner you address this, the better. In the words of a famous New England tombstone engraving: “As you are now, so once was I; as I am now, so shall you be.” And nobody knows how long they’ve got left.

NOVAK: Making ‘Hairstory’: Benia Davis His mom and dad married at 17 and 21, respectively, and had 14 children. Benia Davis, one of those 14 children, knew he did not want to make the same choices as his parents, like having numerous children. In fact, he wanted none. He decided to focus on a career, but he didn’t know which career yet. It was Mississippi in the 1950s. His dad’s family worked hard, but not in a job anyone would call a career. His mom’s family knew all about career choices; when Davis announced he wanted to be the best, he was sent to live with one of his aunts, a privilege none of his siblings received. His mom told him to study hard since that was the only path to success. He wanted to make women look good, so even though it wasn’t considered a masculine field to enter, Davis studied the cosmetology field. He knew he wouldn’t win if he used Black models for a competition, so he switched to white models and proceeded to win. He developed a following and became the first African American stylist with a white following. Cosmetology was not a popular field for Black people to enter in the South, but Davis persisted and became certified in 1971. He had

MORTGAGES FROM PAGE 4 priced, single-family homes in the second quarter of 2022 consume more than 28 percent of average local wages in 388 of the 575 counties analyzed (67 percent), assuming a 20 percent down payment. That is up from 52 percent in the first quarter of 2022 for the same group of counties and 44 percent in the second quarter of last year. “Worsening affordability appears to be having an impact on demand, which could lead to prices plateauing or even correcting modestly in some markets,” Sharga noted. ”Many potential buyers may elect to continue renting until market conditions improve. Others might adjust their sights and look for smaller properties, or homes that are further away from major metro areas. And it’s possible that worsening affordability could accelerate the migratory trends that the COVID-19 pandemic started, as residents in high cost, high tax states who can now work from home look for less expensive places to live.” All but two of counties analyzed have seen an increase in the portion of average local wages consumed by major ownership expenses from both the first to the second quarter of this year and from the second quarter of last year to the same period in 2022. Counties that require the largest percentage of wages are Santa Cruz County, CA (116 percent of annualized weekly wages needed to buy a home); Marin County, CA (outside San Francisco) (109.6 percent); Kings County (Brooklyn), NY (102.9 percent); Maui County, HI (92 percent) and San Luis Obispo County, CA (88.2 percent). Aside from Kings County, NY, counties with a population of at least 1 million where major ownership expenses typically consume more than 28 percent of average local wages in the second quarter of 2022

become an integral member in the white world of cosmetology. But the road wasn’t an easy one. His friends and family members asked why he worked on white but not Black people. He didn’t want to explain his reasoning. He was excited to be accepted in the creative field, and the white people accepted him for his pure talent. He had fallen into a specialty field where his creativity stood out. “I loved to make people look beautiful.

He joined the Association of Cosmetology, which was intended for white people. In 1968, he took the test using all white models. He was then invited to be on a panel discussion as the only Black person. As life would show what patrons in the field thought, a Black critic publicly said Davis “didn’t think like a Black person.” “Sometimes you have to go out of your comfort zone to get the education you want. I had always wanted to be the best, and I did

what I knew I had to do to become known in the field. I experienced jealousy from my own race, so I welcomed the clients who accepted me. Even my own brothers gossiped about me.” Davis advises people to find their passion and be committed to moving forward. He opened his own salon, Benia de la Coiffures International, and was the first African American to become licensed. He then became the first style director teaching all state members, and the first and only Black person to achieve the highest rank of the Official Hair Fashion Committee. Davis has served as a judge for numerous competitions and is still adding to his lengthy list of firsts. After more than 40 years in the field, he is still an active director of cosmetology for Macy’s. His work can be seen throughout the pages of top magazines and style competitions for Ms. Black America and Ms. Black Illinois.

Wall Street wavers a day after big market rally BY STAN CHOE AND ALEX VEIGA AP BUSINESS WRITERS Stocks indexes on Wall Street are wavering in afternoon trading Wednesday, giving up some of their gains from an early rally as more profit reports roll in from U.S. companies. The S&P 500 was 0.2% higher after having been up 1% in the early going. The benchmark index soared 2.8% on Tuesday, its best day in weeks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed a midday gain and slid into the red, down 98 points, or 0.3%, at 31,725, as of 2:09 p.m. Eastern time. The Nasdaq composite was 1% higher after having been up 1.9% in morning trading. Profit reporting season is ramping up, with more types of industries offering details about how high inflation and worries about a possible recession are affecting their customers. A lot is riding on whether they can continue to deliver healthy earnings. Stocks tumbled roughly 20% from their highs this year because of rising interest rates, and proof that profits can remain strong would provide a big support for markets. On the other hand, warnings about upcoming weakness could kick off another leg downward. Companies so far have been mostly topping profit expectations this reporting season, as is usually the case, though the most recent reports were mixed. Nasdaq, the company behind its namesake trading exchange, jumped 5.9% after delivering stronger profit and revenue than Wall Street expected. Omnicon Group, the advertising and public-relations company, rose 3.2% following better-than-expected earnings. Comerica, the Dallas-based financial services company, added 0.5% after it also reported stronger-than-expected results. Netflix climbed 5.5% higher after it said it lost fewer subscribers during the spring than expected. It, though, remains the worst stock in the S&P 500 for the year, down by nearly two thirds.

Beyond Netflix, several other techoriented companies were making strong gains. Amazon climbed 4.1%, and Nvidia jumped 4.3%, helping the Nasdaq composite index to be the market’s clear leader. On the losing end was Baker Hughes, which tumbled 8% after it reported weaker results for the spring than analysts expected. Northern Trust fell 4.8% after its profit fell short of forecasts. In Europe, stocks slipped amid worries about whether Russia would restrict supplies of natural gas headed for the region after some maintenance on a key pipeline is scheduled to end Thursday. Germany’s DAX fell 0.2%, and French stocks dipped 0.3%. The continent is also preparing for the first increase in interest rates by the European Central Bank in 11 years on Thursday, as it tries to beat back inflation. The U.S. Federal Reserve has already hiked rates three times this year, by increasing margins each time. When it meets next week, investors say the only question is if it raises its key rate by another 0.75 percentage points or opts for a mega-hike of a full percentage point. Expectations have recently been tilting toward the less aggressive option, with traders seeing better than a two-in-three chance for a 0.75-point increase, according to CME Group. That could mean less pressure on stocks, particularly tech stocks and others seen as the market’s more expensive, which have swung sharply with changes in forecast on what the Fed will do. Such increases to rates make borrowing more expensive, which slows the economy. The hope is that the Federal Reserve and other central banks can deftly find the middle ground where the economy slows enough to whip inflation but not enough to cause a recession. Some parts of the economy are already slowing because of the rate hikes, particularly the housing industry. A report on Wednesday morning showed that sales of previously occupied homes weakened last month by more than

economists expected. Higher mortgage rates are dragging on the industry, along with high prices for homes. In the bond market, the yield on the two-year Treasury, which tends to follow expectations for the Fed’s actions, edged

up to 3.25% from 3.24% late Tuesday. The 10-year yield rose to 3.03% from 3.01% late Tuesday. ___ AP Business Writer Elaine Kurtenbach contributed.
