Increased foreclosure activity in first six months of 2022 approaches pre-COVID levels ATTOM has released its Midyear 2022 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report, which shows there were a total of 164,581 U.S. properties with foreclosure filings — default notices, scheduled auctions or bank repossessions — in the first six months of 2022. That figure is up 153 percent from the same time period a year ago but down just one percent from the same time period two years ago. “Foreclosure activity across the United States continued its slow, steady climb back to pre-pandemic levels in the first half of 2022,”

said Rick Sharga, executive vice president of market intelligence at ATTOM. “While overall foreclosure activity is still running significantly below historic averages, the dramatic increase in foreclosure starts suggests that we may be back to normal levels by sometime in early 2023.” Bucking the national trend with decreasing foreclosure activity compared to a year ago in the nation’s most populated metros during the first half of 2022, were only 7 of the 223 metro areas analyzed. Those metros included Lake

Havasu, Arizona (down 47 Jersey (0.24 percent); Ohio percent); Eugene, Oregon (0.21 percent); Delaware (0.20 (down 27 percent); Springfield, percent); and South Carolina Illinois (down 19 percent); (0.19 percent). Shreveport, Louisiana (down Other states with first-half 9 percent); and Brownsville, foreclosure rates among the Texas (down 8 percent). 10 highest nationwide, were Illinois, New Jersey, and Florida (0.18 percent); Nevada Ohio post highest state (0.18 percent); Indiana (0.16 foreclosure rates percent); Georgia (0.13 Nationwide 0.12 percent of percent); and Michigan (0.13 all housing units (one in every percent).

The most popular house styles, according to each state

service@bridgetowermedia.com MAIN OFFICE: 130 N. MCDOWELL ST., STE. B

Finding a home that’s perfect for you is not just about the right timing—it’s also about finding the right style. The popularity of certain house styles depends on various factors, from the region and climate to neighborhood and personal preference. Whatever the reason for their preferences, we wanted to determine the most popular house styles in the country, so we surveyed over 2,200 Americans. We showed them visuals of 15 common house styles and asked them to rate their favorites and least favorites, and they also answered some questions about their tastes. From there, we determined the most popular house styles in 40 different states and gained some insight into what home buyers might be looking for. Key Findings • The most popular house styles in the U.S. are cottage, contemporary, Mediterranean and craftsman. • The house styles Americans are most likely to never want to see again include: adobe, contemporary, townhouse, and

colonial. • 76% of Americans would buy a house that’s ugly on the outside, in their opinion, but perfect on the inside. The Most Attractive House Style, According to Each State We tabulated the regional results and determined the most attractive house styles according to each state. Cottage and contemporary both scored the highest, winning eight states each. For cottage, these included states on either coast, such as Washington and Virginia, as well as states in the middle of the country, like Oklahoma. Known for their coziness and diminutive size, cottagestyle homes typically have stone or wood elements and often include porches. Cottagestyle homes also make great places to collaborate with local gardeners to create the Clean and minimal are two words that define the contemporarystyle home. Often grouped under the “modern” umbrella, which includes sharp, contrasting lines and colors, “contemporary” also serves as

a catch-all term for what is popular in many new builds in America. In our survey, it notably won out in Midwestern states, including Indiana, Illinois, and Minnesota. Other popular home styles, broken down by state, include Mediterranean (seven states) and craftsman (four states). States that did not have an adequate number of responses are not included in this breakdown.

New home sales decline for fifth consecutive month in June

Zonda have released the New Home Pending Sales Index (PSI) for June 2022. The New Home PSI shows pending sales fell month-over-month and remained down year-over-year. The index is a leading residential real estate indicator based on the number of new home sales contracts signed across

FORECLOSURES FROM PAGE 1 statistical areas with a population of at least 200,000, those with the highest foreclosure rates in the first half of 2022 were Cleveland, Ohio (0.40 percent of housing units with foreclosure filings); Atlantic City, New Jersey (0.33 percent); Jacksonville, North Carolina (0.31 percent); Chicago, Illinois (0.30 percent); and Columbia, South Carolina (0.30 percent). Other metro areas with foreclosure rates ranking among the top 10 highest in the first half of 2022 were Rockford, Illinois (0.30 percent of housing units with a foreclosure filing); Lakeland, Florida (0.27 percent); Akron, Ohio (0.24 percent); Fayetteville, North Carolina (0.24 percent); and Trenton, New Jersey (0.23 percent). Foreclosure starts up 219 percent from last year A total of 117,383 U.S. properties started the foreclosure process in the first six months of 2022, up 219 percent from the first half of last year and up 19 percent from the first half of 2020.

the country. • The New Home PSI came in at 125.5 for June, representing a 7.5% decrease from June 2021. The index is 27.9% below cycle highs. • On a month-over-month basis, seasonally adjusted new home sales fell from May to June, down 0.2%, posting the fifth consecutive month-over-month decline. • The combined impact of limited supply and rising rates continues to be felt in the market as new home volume fell to the lowest level since May 2020. The New Home PSI is a unique measure of the housing market because it is made up of two components*: new home orders and the average sales rate per community. The new home orders component fell 10.5% year-over-year in June as supply remained low. The average sales rate per community input also fell, decreasing 8.2% year-overyear. New home orders, which look at total

sales volume, have been significantly impacted with ever decreasing active project count. In other words, sales are down in part because inventory is scarce. The average sales rate per community captures how well builders are selling at the open communities and strips out the supply side. The average sales rate component is showing that demand is negatively responding to higher homeownership costs. Both the new home order volume and average sales rate ticked lower on a monthly basis. “Home sellers and home buyers are adjusting to a new reality in the housing market,” said Ali Wolf, Zonda’s chief economist. “Home sellers are quickly understanding the days of frenzied demand are behind us and it takes an extra push to get buyers to close. Home buyers are reevaluating their finances given today’s home prices and higher interest rates. They are also weighing fears of a recession against an

unrelenting desire to own a home.” Pending new home sales trended above June 2021 levels in five of our 25 select markets, flat from five last month. 12 of 25 of our select markets increased month-over-month. Minneapolis increased the most on both a monthly and a year-over-year basis, rising 11.8% and 7.4%, respectively. The relationship between the percent change in the average sale rate and new home orders can reflect an imbalance of supply and demand. 20 of 25 select markets posted a positive spread, indicating current levels of volume are being somewhat restrained by lack of supply. Sales pace remains up year-over-year in five of Zonda’s select markets, a decrease from six last month. On the volume side, just one metro, Minneapolis, posted an increase compared to last year, flat from last month. “There are a lot of what-ifs in the housing market right now,” said Wolf. “Understanding changes in and interactions between consumer confidence, home prices, housing inventory, and interest rates are more important than ever for forecasting where things go from here.” New home data is susceptible to outsized swings in contract activity based on shifts in the number of actively selling communities. As a result, Zonda normalizes the data to ensure consistency across the index. The New Home PSI blends the cumulative sales of active or recently sold-out projects with the average sales rate per community, which adjusts for fluctuations in supply. Furthermore, the New Home PSI is seasonally adjusted based on each markets’ specific seasonality and removes outliers. The index is baselined to 100 for June 2016. Today’s national New Home PSI is 25.5% above the base level. Staff report

States that saw the greatest number of foreclosures starts in the first half of 2022 included, California (12,805 foreclosure starts); Florida (11,448 foreclosure starts); Tennessee (10,970 foreclosure starts); Illinois (8,411 foreclosure starts); and Ohio (6,987 foreclosure starts). “It’s important to note that many of the foreclosure starts we’re seeing today – in fact, much of the overall foreclosure activity we’re seeing right now – is on loans that were either already in foreclosure or were more than 120 days delinquent prior to the pandemic,” Sharga added. “Many of these loans were protected by the government’s foreclosure moratorium, or they would have already been foreclosed on two years ago. There’s very little delinquency or default activity that’s truly new in the numbers we’re tracking.” Bank repossessions climb in first half of 2022 Lenders foreclosed (REO) on a total of 20,750 U.S. properties in the first six months of 2022, up 30 percent from the last half of 2021 and up 113 percent from the first half of 2020.

States that posted the greatest number of REOs in the first half of 2022 included, Illinois (2,434 REOs); Michigan (2,259 REOs); Pennsylvania (1,290 REOs); California (1,043 REOs); and Florida (1,041 REOs). Q2 2022 foreclosure activity below pre-recession averages in 79 percent of major markets There were a total of 90,139 U.S. properties with foreclosure filings in Q2 2022, up 15 percent from the previous quarter and up 165 percent from a year ago. The national foreclosure activity total in Q2 2022 was 68 percent below the prerecession average of 278,912 per quarter from Q1 2006 to Q3 2007, making Q2 2022 the 23rd consecutive quarter with foreclosure activity below the prerecession average. Second quarter foreclosure activity was below pre-recession averages in 177 out 223 (79 percent) metropolitan statistical areas with a population of at least 200,000 and sufficient historical foreclosure data, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Houston,

Miami, Atlanta, San Francisco, RiversideSan Bernardino, Phoenix and Detroit. Metro areas with second quarter foreclosure activity above pre-recession averages included Honolulu, Richmond, Virginia-Beach, Albany, and Montgomery. Average foreclosure timeline increases from last year Properties foreclosed in the second quarter of 2022 took an average of 948 days from the first public foreclosure notice to complete the foreclosure process, up from 917 days in the previous quarter and up from 922 days in the second quarter of 2021. States with the longest average foreclosure timelines for foreclosures completed in Q2 2022 were Nevada (2,683 days), Hawaii (2,619 days), New Jersey (1,984 days), Louisiana (1,901 days), and New York (1,823 days). States with the shortest average foreclosure timelines for foreclosures completed in Q2 2022 were West Virginia (82 days), Montana (84 days), Missouri (117 days), Minnesota (141 days), and Arkansas (154 days).

ENNICO: Avoiding a ‘Straw Man’ when buying a small business “My wife and I are looking to buy a business together. We heard about a great local business that’s for sale, but when we inquired with the business broker handling the sale, we learned that it was already under contract to be sold. However, the broker told us the buyer was getting ‘cold feet’ and probably wouldn’t want to go through with the sale. Since the buyer was getting a terrific price for this business, what this broker suggested is that we contact the buyer and offer to buy the limited liability company (LLC) he formed to acquire this business. That way we could become the buyer under the contract of sale and close on this business without the seller changing the deal. The buyer would stay on board as the president of the LLC and sign all of the documents at closing as if he were still the party in charge, so the seller wouldn’t suspect anything. After the closing, the buyer would resign as president, and we would own the business. I’m frankly a little nervous about this -- it all sounds a little bit shady to me. Am I right or am I worried about nothing?” Clearly, what this broker wants more than anything else is to preserve his commission on the sale. The seller may

have a backup buyer or two, so if this buyer walks away from the deal, the broker will lose his commission. Though, interestingly enough, what the broker is suggesting may be legal. First, before doing anything else, you should get a copy of the contract of sale from the broker and review it carefully with a local business attorney. There will almost certainly be a clause in the agreement prohibiting the buyer from “assigning” his rights under the contract to anyone else before the closing. If the clause is well-drafted, the clause may contain language saying that a change in the ownership of buyer prior to the closing is a prohibited “assignment” of the contract. If that language is there, then you should not cut a deal with the buyer, as you will be inducing him to breach his contract with the seller and will almost certainly be named in the lawsuit when the seller sues the buyer for breaching the sale contract. Next, check to see how the purchase price is being paid. If the buyer is going to pay part of the price in installments over time, the seller will no doubt insist on a personal guaranty from the buyer and will not accept that from anyone other than the person with whom he originally contracted.

If a change in ownership is not prohibited by the contract, and if payment at the closing is all cash, then it would technically be legal for you to buy the membership interests in the buyer’s LLC. It still may not be a good idea, however. When you buy membership interests in an LLC, you are buying the company’s balance sheet -- all of its assets and liabilities. You should do some diligence on the buyer’s LLC and make sure it hasn’t incurred any debts or obligations other than the contract of sale for the business. If the LLC doesn’t have any financial statements or tax returns (which is highly likely if it was formed recently for the sole purpose of buying this business), then you should make sure the buyer indemnifies you for any hidden liabilities that may crop up after you buy his LLC. I’m not wild about the buyer agreeing to stay on board as a “straw man” to deal with the seller after you buy the LLC. If the seller finds out, it will look as if you and the buyer have been conspiring to do something weird, and that may give the seller the right to walk from the deal. The right thing to do would be to notify the seller of the change in his buyer’s ownership. If your attorney feels that a

change in ownership of the buyer would not constitute a breach of the contract of sale, that’s what you should do. If you absolutely must use the buyer as a straw man to avoid alerting the seller to the change in ownership, make sure your attorney attends the closing (as the buyer’s counsel) so the buyer doesn’t agree to any last-minute monkey business you will be bound by. Also, the buyer should sign a letter now resigning as president of the LLC, dated the closing date, so there’s no risk he will change his mind after the closing and ask you for compensation. One last thing: Don’t forget to ask the buyer why he got cold feet and decided not to buy the business. You don’t want to buy his LLC and then find out you (SET ITAL) also (END ITAL) don’t want to go through with the contract.

NOVAK: Study questions to ask before an interview Q: I prefer working at small companies because they seem less rigid with rules and policies and the environment is more like a family. The company I work for is run by a married couple. They live like millionaires but claim to not be able to pay me more. I’ve been there a little more than a year. I love the job, but I find it difficult to live on the salary. Because I really wanted the job, I did not ask questions in the interview. I recently told them I’m having trouble living on the salary and asked for an increase. They said they’d see what they could do, but nothing has happened yet. I need to remind them again. What else can I do? A: The opportunity to negotiate a higher salary or better benefits is once you receive a job offer and have not yet accepted it. Once you accept the position, you are relying on the company’s success (as the owners see it) and their generosity. Rather than hoping you will be a wonderful addition to the company, they will now know what you are capable

of contributing. In other words, their excitement is replaced by reality. When comparing small companies to large ones, you have to weigh the pros and cons of each. Salaries are not created so the employee can live a more desired lifestyle. They are created according the work and level of qualifications required. Privately owned company owners have the right to take as much out of the company as they wish to live the lifestyle they desire. The rules for the owners are not the same for the employees. This may be your wake-up call to the so-called rules of the workplace. One thing is clear. It would serve you well to read books on the interview questions that are typically asked. Such a book to increase your knowledge and comfort level with the interviewing process is “96 Great Interview Questions To Ask Before You Hire” by Paul Falcone. Falcone is a top human resources professional and author of numerous books to guide HR employees toward becoming experienced HR professionals.

“It’s often used by job applicants to gain a better understanding of the job search process from the ‘other side of the desk,’” says Falcone. When you learn what the pros are expecting of you, you will know the questions you, in turn, should be asking in an interview. As a hiring manager, Falcone says, “No questions at the end of an interview leads me to think, ‘So you really want to work here but have absolutely no questions about the organization, what it’s like to work here, or what it takes to be successful?’ This is a definite negative in the overall evaluation of the candidate.” Falcone suggests explaining your small company preference and then leading into a question such as, “As you see from my resume, I enjoy working for smaller companies because I feel size matters. Smaller organizations tend to be more focused and aligned, and you don’t get lost in bureaucracy. I also love that everyone’s part of the solution and can see their impact on the final product.

Do you find that XYZ is typical of smaller companies in that regard, and do you have plans to scale up or down in the next few years?” You may be asked a salary range you would consider, but do not ask for the exact salary. Salary offers are determined after the interview and presented in the job offer, which is based on what the applicant brings to the job. If you need time to consider your bottom line once you know what the job entails, ask for it. You lose negotiating power once you’ve begun working. If you negotiate an increase based on achieving certain performance levels, make sure it is in your offer letter or in an employment agreement. If not, a future salary increase is not a promise. Your options are to stay on your current salary or start a job search. In fact, job search results and future interviews are the best way to know your value in any job market.

New crypto oversight legislation arrives as industry shakes BY FATIMA HUSSEIN AND KEN SWEET ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON (AP) — After 13 years, at least three crashes, dozens of scams and Ponzi schemes and hundreds of billions of dollars made and evaporated, cryptocurrencies finally have the full attention of Congress, whose lawmakers and lobbyists have papered Capitol Hill with proposals on how to regulate the industry. The latest bipartisan proposal came Wednesday from Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Michigan, and top Republican member Sen. John Boozman of Arkansas, which would hand the regulatory authority of Bitcoin and Ether to the Commodities Futures Trading Commission. That would be in contrast with bills proposed by other members of Congress and consumer advocates, who have suggested giving the authority to the Securities and Exchange Commission. This year, crypto investors have seen prices plunge and companies crater with fortunes and jobs disappearing overnight, and some firms have been accused by federal regulators of running an illegal securities exchange. Bitcoin, the largest digital asset, trades at a fraction of its alltime high, down from more than $68,000 in November 2021 to about $23,000 on Wednesday. While cryptocurrencies have had

crashes before, most recently in 2018, this crash has been broader and more systemic. A major hedge fund filed for bankruptcy earlier this summer, which in turn has caused other cryptocurrency brokers to collapse as well. Some crypto brokers have falsely claimed that its customers’ deposits are backed by deposit insurance like a bank. Lawmakers, who have run out of patience with the cryptocurrency industry’s attempts to live out an unregulated Libertarian, bank-free world, are now desperate to implement stringent oversight. The industry spent $9 million in 2021 on lobbying fees, according to a report by Public Citizen, a figure that is certain to be higher with all the Congressional proposals this year. The Stabenow-Boozman bill would be a win for the cryptocurrency industry, who see the CFTC as more industryfriendly regulator than the SEC. The CFTC, which a budget last year of $304 million with roughly 666 employees, is a fraction of the size of the SEC, which had a budget of nearly $2 billion and 4,500 full-time employees. “(The cryptocurrency industry is) trying to get anyone other than the SEC to regulate them,” said Cory Klippsten, CEO of Swan Bitcoin. While an advocate for Bitcoin, Klippsten is deeply skeptical of much of broader crypto industry, which has produced a myriad of tokens and other coins that he considers to be

nothing more than scams. In a press conference Stabenow and Boozman both acknowledged that the while they have faith that the CFTC is up to the task of regulating cryptocurrencies, the agency would need support. The bill attempts to alleviate this issue by imposing on the crypto industry user fees, which in turn would fund more robust supervision of the industry by the CFTC. “Obviously if the CTFC is to move aggressively in this area, they are going to need more resources,” Stabenow said. The legislation can be added to the list of proposals that have come out of Congress this year. Sens. Cory Booker, D-N.J., and John Thune, R-S.D., are also co-sponsors of the Stabenow-Boozman bill. Booker has publicly advocated for the cryptocurrency industry, particularly because Black Americans and other racial minorities are more statistically likely to invest in crypto compared to traditional investments like stocks and bonds. Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., in April introduced legislation, called the Stablecoin TRUST Act, that would create a framework to regulate stablecoins, which have seen massive losses this year. Stablecoins are a type of cryptocurrency pegged to a specific value, usually the U.S. dollar, another currency or gold. Additionally, in June, Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., and Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo., proposed a wide-

ranging bill, called the Responsible Financial Innovation Act. That bill proposed legal definitions of digital assets and virtual currencies; would require the IRS to adopt guidance on merchant acceptance of digital assets and charitable contributions; and would make a distinction between digital assets that are commodities and those that are securities, which has not been done. Along with the Toomey legislation and the Lummis-Gillibrand legislation, a proposal is being worked out in the House Financial Services Committee, though those negotiations have stalled. Committee chair Maxine Waters, D-Calif., said last month that while she, top Republican member Patrick McHenry of North Carolina and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen had made considerable progress toward an agreement on the legislation, “we are unfortunately not there yet, and will therefore continue our negotiations over the August recess.” President Joe Biden’s working group on financial markets last November issued a report calling on Congress to pass legislation that would regulate stablecoins, and Biden earlier this year issued an executive order calling on a variety of agencies to look at ways to regulate digital assets. ___ Follow AP’s coverage of the cryptocurrency industry at https:// apnews.com/hub/cryptocurrency.
