Steep drop in mortgage lending continues across U.S. in third quarter, hitting three-year low

ATTOM has released its third-quarter 2022 U.S. Residential Property Mortgage Origination Report, which shows that 1.97 million mortgages secured by residential property (1 to 4 units) were originated in the third quarter of 2022 in the United States. That figure was down 19 percent from the second quarter of 2022 – the sixth quarterly decrease in a row – and down 47 percent from the third quarter of 2021 – the biggest annual drop in 21 years.

The continued decline in residential lending resulted from double-digit downturns in both refinance and purchase loan activity that far outweighed another increase in home-equity credit lines.

Overall, lenders issued $636.5 billion worth of mortgages in the third quarter of 2022. That was down quarterly by 22 percent and 46 percent annually. As with the number of loans, the annual decrease in the dollar volume of mortgages stood out as the largest since at least 2001 and was the latest sign that the 11-year U.S. housing market boom is losing steam.

“There are no surprises in this

quarter’s loan origination numbers, as the unprecedented jump in mortgage rates has battered both the purchase and refinance markets,” said Rick Sharga, executive vice president of market intelligence at ATTOM. “Prospective homebuyers have been priced out of the market by the combination of 7 percent mortgage rates and higher home prices. And refinance activity will probably continue to decline, since the majority of homeowners have loans with sub-4 percent interest rates.”

The continued dip came as just 661,000 residential loans were rolled over into new mortgages and borrowers took out only 943,000 loans to buy homes during the third quarter of 2022.

During a period when mortgage interest rates continued to climb, refinancing activity was down 31 percent from the second quarter of 2022 and 68 percent from a year earlier. Refinancing activity has dropped for six consecutive quarters, to a level that is just one-quarter of what it was in early 2021. The dollar volume of refinance loans in the period running

from July through September was down 33 percent from the prior quarter and 67 percent annually, to $212 billion.

The number of purchase loans, meanwhile, slumped by 16 percent quarterly and 33 percent annually, while the dollar volume decreased to $353.9 billion.

Only a 5 percent quarterly jump in the number and value of HELOCs – the third quarterly straight gain - kept the industry from seeing an across-the-board contraction.

By the end of the third quarter, refinance activity represented just a third of overall mortgages, compared to two-thirds as recently as the first quarter of last year. Purchase lending continued at just under half of all activity in the third quarter of 2022, while home-equity packages comprised one of every five mortgage deals completed. That ratio for so-called HELOC loans was up from one of every 21 a year and a half ago.

Frampton Construction named to Charlotte list of “Best Places to Work”

NOVAK: Too old for a new job?

BY BRETT CALDWELL, APPLICATION SPECIALIST, GSSI, INC.

As the saying goes, “Time is money,” and general contractors, superintendents and project managers know that the cliché means focusing on keeping workflow going as smoothly as possible. Like a conductor of a symphony, GCs make sure each trade “chimes in” when needed – not before and not after. Especially in the construction world, the GC’s role is to keep the “instruments” (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing contractors, concrete, framers, fire and sprinkler, drywallers, and steel contractors) working together in harmony. Giving construction crews ground penetrating radar (GPR) systems helps enhance the safety and efficiency of the jobsite.

Many factors can reduce construction efficiency

Construction efficiency can be affected by a variety of factors. There can be breakdowns in timing due to shipment delays. Did a plumbing sleeve get knocked out of place during the pour? Did steel pieces needed to weld framing together get covered by concrete? Is there a change order that requires a conduit or pipe run to be moved 10 inches – on all 30 floors? While these issues are being sorted out, there is often a domino effect with multiple contractors – even one or two minor issues can result in a cascading delay for

the tradespeople on site.

Data sharing on the construction site

While construction cultures do tend to vary by region, it is not uncommon to see superintendents, assistants, project managers, and engineers walking around with ToughPad tablets connected wirelessly, giving them real time access to individual plans, schedules, and drawings. Imagine standing on the 30th floor of a high rise and being able to pull as-builts on a screen rather than having to walk all the way to a construction office that may or may not even be within the building.

Different manufacturers are bringing in tools to digitize space and drawings. For example, if the fire sprinkler pipes are mistakenly placed in the same location as plumbing lines, those with tablets could shoot the conflict to CAD engineers and get it resolved much more easily. Being able to upload the GPR data to the company’s server and share it with engineers who have to make a decision on whether it is clear so they can drill is a real time and money saver. Without this information, they would have to go to the office, print out the data and drive it somewhere – adding steps and time and costing more money.

On the horizon is an increase in cloud-based sharing of information along all levels of the construction process, from data collection to the decision makers (engineers, project managers)

and back down to the trades doing the work (electricians, plumbers, mechanicals). This even extends to GISbased data making its way to excavators clearing ground for the beginning of a project.

GPR tools can improve safety

GPR is almost always needed when something unexpected occurs. It is rarely something planned out in the construction cycle. So how can contractors keep unplanned events from adversely affecting the construction schedule? One way is to give GCs access to GPR equipment on each jobsite. Many trades and GCs are bringing in units to keep on hand, so a simple problem can be fixed quickly.

Newer equipment features user friendly interfaces, easy enough that someone who does not “do GPR for a living” can take the tool out

and use it for clearing an area, double checking to see if possibly a sleeve has been forgotten – or to make sure concrete drillers are not going to hit anything. This can be done relatively easily, with manufacturer’s training and a bit of experience. (It should be noted that GPR service providers will always have a place; some areas are just so complicated that having years of experience with thousands of scans under their belt is necessary.)

Take a recent example of a tower crane being used for support during construction of a high rise building in Austin, Texas. The crane anchors affixed to different floors started breaking, presenting a significant safety issue as there was a public street below and the new construction was surrounded by occupied buildings. The job came to a screeching halt

Construction spending ticks up in September driven by nonresidential construction

Total construction spending increased by 0.2 percent for the month of September and by 10.9 percent for the year as nonresidential construction activity now outpaces residential construction, according to an analysis the Associated General Contractors of America released today of federal spending data. Association officials noted that gains in public sector transportation construction have lagged other fast-growing segments as officials grapple with Buy America and other new regulatory requirements.

“Demand remains strong for a range of nonresidential construction segments despite supply chain challenges and rising interest rates,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “But transportation infrastructure investments would likely have been higher if it wasn’t for the inevitable regulatory confusion that comes with the new Buy America requirements.”

Construction spending, not adjusted for inflation, totaled $1.811 trillion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate in September, 0.2 percent above the August rate and 10.9 percent above the September 2021 rate. Spending on private residential construction was flat in September but is still up 12.7 percent compared to a year ago. Meanwhile spending on private nonresidential construction is up 1.0 percent in September and 10.5 percent for the year.

The biggest drivers for the increase in private nonresidential construction were manufacturing construction, which was up 7.6 percent for the month and 43.3 percent for the year; commercial construction, which was down 0.7 percent for the month

when it was discovered; GPR was used to verify damage and indicate areas for new anchors, and the job could quickly start up again without further delay.

Another example was a utility company that was conducting horizontal boring for installation of a fiber optic cable. A horizontal boring company used 811 to mark out utilities based on use of as-builts. Unfortunately, an unmarked water line was cut while laying the fiber optic cable. The contractor had two out of town crews standing by (on per diem), waiting for the water line to be located for the entire apartment complex. This is a case where on-site GPR could have verified the utility markings simply and quickly before the issue arose.

I have personally experienced multiple instances of change orders occurring that moved locations of various piping or conduits, resulting in delays for multiple trades. Any time something unexpected was found during a saw cut – say a conduit was struck – you have not only the saw crew on hold, billing your company stand-by time, but also the trades waiting on the work. Could there be anything worse than hourly employees standing around due to these issues?

but is up 22.6 percent for the year; and lodging construction, which was up 0.7 percent in September and 15.8 percent for the year. Private sector power construction continued to decline, down 0.4 percent for the month and 12.9 percent for the year.

Public construction spending decreased by 0.4 percent in September, with mixed results for the three largest segments. Highway and street construction spending was up 1.7 percent for the month and 8.7 percent for the year, while educational spending was flat for the month and down

The best scenario would be if the GC could use on-site GPR equipment to do basic clearing immediately and get back to work. Instead, the contractor often has to call in a service provider and schedule the work. Then the provider has to scan all the possibly affected areas before getting back to work.

This method of locating is very frequently an issue in remodeling jobs. GPR may be built into the planning process, but usually a crew will start saw cutting – and when they hit a conduit that crew goes on standby, charging standby rates until GPR can be brought in to verify where it is safe to cut. I saw this happen once at an old strip mall where they were moving the bathroom and needed to sawcut trenches to run plumbing.

Clearly, keeping GPR equipment on site would be a benefit to ensure the tight construction schedules are kept. Examples include GSSI’s StructureScan™ Mini XT and LT, rugged all-in-one concrete scanning systems designed for contractors who need to locate rebar, conduits, posttension cables, and voids.

Another option is the GSSI UtilityScan® GPR system, with a simple user interface that makes it easy to locate and mark the depth of

1.0 percent for the year. Transportation construction spending decreased by 1.3 percent for the month but was up 3.2 percent for the year.

Association officials noted that the rate of growth for transportation-related infrastructure, including for highways and street, has lagged other fast-growing construction segments despite the bipartisan infrastructure bill that was signed into law. They noted that new Buy America and other regulatory requirements that were included in the law are keeping

underground utilities in real-time in the field. The on-screen 3D data collection mode allows users to easily define the time slice depth and thickness in the field with the 3D data on the screen. The optional LineTrac® power detection module enables contractors to identify and trace the precise location of underground electric and RF-induced utilities.

officials from moving forward on some projects as they await guidance from the Biden administration on how to comply.

“The best way to accelerate investments in our aging transportation sector is to provide immediate relief to the Buy America rules that make no sense as a time when supply chains remain very challenged,” said Sandherr. “The administration can provide an immediate boost to infrastructure upgrades by relaxing what are proving to be unworkable new requirements.”

Staff report

Future of GPR tools focuses on improving data flow

Construction personnel can save time and money now by maintaining simple GPR tools on-site. All eyes are looking towards how quickly one can eliminate or reduce the dead time between collection of data and sharing it – so we can get the trades back to their work.

Ram Realty Advisors acquires South End Business Park

Ram Realty Advisors closed this week on the acquisition of South End Business Park, a 45-acre infill flex office park comprised of 377,000 SF, located in the Lower South End neighborhood in Charlotte, NC. The sale was brokered by Patrick Nally, Hunter Barron, and Alexis Kaiser with JLL, representing seller Stockbridge, a private equity real estate investment management firm.

Originally constructed in phases from 1979-1984, the office park was expanded in 2017 with the construction of a 14th building containing 50,000 SF. Located at Clanton & South Tryon Streets with direct access to I-77 and a half-mile from two Lynx Blue Line light rail stations, Ram has secured one of the largest urban infill sites in Charlotte.

“Ram is thrilled to acquire a property with such tremendous redevelopment potential,” said David Klepser, Managing Director for Ram Realty Advisors. “We look forward to contributing to the continued growth and vibrancy of Lower South End.”

The property will continue to operate as South End Business Park while Ram embarks on a rezoning and master planning effort over the coming years.

Rachel Russell Krenz, Vice President of Development for Ram, said “We look forward to delivering future economic development opportunities to the city and region with a mixed-use, multiphased redevelopment of this property.”

Ram has been active for over 15 years in Charlotte, including six recent South End projects -- Lowe’s Global Technology Center, Hub South End Apartments, Hawk, Three30Five Apartments, Three30Five Commercial, and Everly. Ram has several existing assets in North Carolina located in Charlotte, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, and Durham, including University Place in Chapel Hill, an existing enclosed mall that is being redeveloped into a mixeduse town center with 350,000 SF of upscale retail, 50,000 SF of office space, and 253 apartments in an initial phase that commenced this month.

SCORE’s Fall 2022 Megaphone of Main Street: The Small Business Rural/ Urban Divide surveyed more than 3,000 entrepreneurs and found that while more than 75% of small businesses surveyed have returned to pre-pandemic levels or better, more than half (53%) of rural entrepreneurs say they feel somewhat or extremely negative about the economy and its impact on their business.

Although customer acquisition remains a challenge for all small businesses, inflation, the overall economy and cash flow are top concerns. In particular, rural entrepreneurs feel more challenged by inflation and supply chain disruptions. Specifically, rural small business owners are:

● 30.2% more likely than non-rural small business owners to cite inflation as one of their top three business concerns

● When compared to non-rural counterparts, are 32.4% more likely to cite supply chain disruptions

Diving deeper, rural small businesses say cash flow is constrained by rising costs for utilities, supplies, labor and capital. Rural entrepreneurs are:

● 9.3% more likely than non-rural small businesses to report higher costs of doing business

● 24.5% more likely to report higher vendor prices, when compared to nonrural entrepreneurs

Compared to their non-rural counterparts, twice as many rural entrepreneurs say there’s a lack of local banks in their area from which to seek financing, further limiting their ability to secure funding.

What do rural entrepreneurs need in order to overcome these barriers?

Both rural and non-rural small businesses agree that better access to capital would most help them in the coming year, followed by loan forgiveness or debt relief. Interestingly, rural businesses were 24.5% more likely than non-rural businesses to desire assistance in the form of infrastructure improvements.

Recognizing that rural entrepreneurs face unique challenges, SCORE Bozeman Chapter Chair Rick Sanders notes: “Rural entrepreneurs deal with limited inventories and slow turns; requests for services from a limited pool of trained resources, few government resources and fierce competition from online stores. Thankfully, SCORE is here to connect the dots in rural communities across the country to provide the advice, tools and information rural entrepreneurs really need.”

Hickory families will become the City’s newest homeowners thanks to a publicprivate partnership with the City of Hickory and JRN Development, LLC. The City, JRN Development, and future homebuyers celebrated the completion of the homes at Ridgefield Place in the Ridgeview community with a ribbon cutting and tour of the properties.

“While we are proud that Hickory has been named one of the nation’s most affordable places to live, we know that housing is still a challenge for many working families in our community,” explained Hickory Mayor Hank Guess. “With the completion of these affordable homes, the City’s affordable housing initiative continues to demonstrate Hickory’s commitment to our citizens’ ability to live in the community where they work and play. We look forward to building on this project’s success to provide creative housing solutions in the future.”

The City of Hickory partnered with JRN Development on Ridgefield Place because of its ability to build multiple homes at once and build them faster than most traditional construction. JRN constructed the homes using state-of-the-art building technology to ensure quality and accelerate the building process.

The homes are being sold for $155,000 to $168,000 to eligible families earning up to 80 percent of the area median income, and will remain affordable for 15 years, even if the homeowner chooses to sell the home during that time.

“Partnering with municipalities, local governments and their housing authority and community development partners allows us to fast-track the availability of affordable housing to own or rent. These critical partnerships and our high-tech construction process allow us to build quality, sustainable housing for working families,” said JRN Development CEO Rick Admani Abulhaj. “It is gratifying to be part of the solution for families striving to own a high-quality home of their own that they can enjoy for many years to come.”

The homes are constructed using preengineered floor, wall, and roof systems, fabricated from steel by Charlotte-based OFFSITEK. Steel is stronger than wood, is not subject to damage from termites and mold, plus it can withstand high winds and survive fires, floods, and hurricanes with minimal damage.

Ridgefield Place is a project between JRN and the City of Hickory. JRN specializes in affordable housing and multifamily construction. It is currently contracted to embark on a similar project with the City of Statesville, as well as low-income housing construction in several markets in the Midwest and Southern U.S. JRN is also in talks with the City of Hickory and other municipalities to create additional high-quality, low-maintenance homes for low-to-moderate income families in North Carolina.

ENNICO: Preparing your cap tables the right way

“We have kind of a ‘good news, bad news’ problem in our business.

On the one hand, a local angel investor has offered to buy 15% of our company for $300,000.

On the other hand, we don’t know exactly who owns our company. My brother and I inherited my father’s 80% share in the business when he died last year, and the remaining 20% is owned by several family members.

The problem is that toward the end of his life, Dad made promises to a number of people -- mostly long-term employees, distant relatives and at least one of his nurses -- to give them shares in the business, but didn’t keep any documentation. The angel investor is asking for an ownership chart showing all people who may have an interest in our company, and we can’t put it together because we can’t figure out who was promised what. What can we do?”

Forget about balance sheets, income statements and cash flow projections. When it comes to raising money from investors, often the single most important document is the capitalization table (“cap table” for short).

A cap table is nothing more than a list of the company’s owners, showing the number of shares and/or the percentage of the company they own. Sounds simple, right?

But there are two different cap tables. The first shows the “actual” ownership of stock in the company as of a particular date. This table is important because it shows who is entitled to vote when the owners have to vote on something. (Holders of options and warrants don’t count.) In this reader’s case, putting together the “actual ownership” table is easy: She should include only herself, her brother and the family members owning the remaining 20%. (When doing this, by the way, it’s a good idea to include mailing and email addresses

as well as the names so it’s easier to send them notices of meetings, tax returns and other necessary communications.)

The second cap table every business needs is the “fully diluted” cap table, and it’s much trickier to prepare. In addition to the actual owners of the business, a “fully diluted” cap table also contains the names and address of people who own options, warrants, convertible notes and other instruments that can be converted into stock in the future. When those conversions happen, the existing owners will be “diluted” -- their percentage ownership of the business will decrease in order to accommodate the new owners. Investors always want to see how their investment will be diluted if everyone holding options, warrants and convertible instruments were to convert into stock at the same time, which is why they always ask for a “fully diluted” cap table.

The fact that your angel investor wants to see a “fully diluted” cap table means he wants to get a number of shares that will equal 15% of your company AFTER all of the options, warrants and other convertible instruments have been converted into cash. (Since bank loans are almost never convertible into stock, you don’t have to include those on your “fully diluted” cap table but it’s good to include them anyway as it gives investors a more complete picture of how much debt the business has.)

And therein lies the rub: Entrepreneurs (like this reader’s father) often fail to keep track of the promises they make to give people stock in their companies.

The good news here is that verbal promises of any kind are seldom enforceable. An ancient law called the statute of frauds (https://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Statute_of_frauds) requires most enforceable promises to be in writing, and a promise to give someone something when you die is totally unenforceable unless it’s

in a last will and testament.

So it sounds like this reader has little to worry about promises her father may have made to distant family members, his nurses and the like.

The employees, however, are a different situation. While these promises are probably also not enforceable, you don’t want to tick off loyal and long-standing employees who have contributed to your business’s success.

What I would recommend here is that this reader put together an “option plan” for all of the restaurant employees, granting them options to acquire a small piece of the company (no more than 5% to 10%) vesting over a period of one to five years. That way, they have an incentive to stay with the company and are less likely to complain that they were shortchanged by the father’s death.

Also, if any of the distant relatives, nurses or other people who knew your

father come out of the woodwork later on claiming they own a piece of the company, you can make them “consultants” to the company and give them options under the plan to make them go away.

The option plan should be put into place before the angel investor comes on board and should be mentioned in the “fully diluted” cap table.

The most recent mortgage numbers are among the strongest reflections yet of a U.S. housing market that has cooled considerably after 11 years of nearly uninterrupted gains.

Total mortgages drop at fastest annual pace since 2001

Banks and other lenders issued 1,968,930 residential mortgages in the third quarter of 2022. That was down 18.7 percent from 2,421,540 in the second quarter of 2022 and down 46.9 percent from 3,708,000 in the third quarter of 2021. The annual decline marked the largest since at least 2001. The $636.5 billion dollar volume of loans in the third quarter was down 22.4 percent from $819.9 billion in the prior quarter and was 46.4 percent less than the $1.19 trillion lent in the third quarter of 2021.

Overall lending activity decreased from the second quarter of 2022 to the third quarter of 2022 in 206, or 98 percent, of the 210 metropolitan statistical areas around the U.S. with a population of more than 200,000 and at least 1,000 total residential mortgages issued in the third quarter of 2022. Total lending activity was down at least 15 percent in 116 of the metros with enough data to analyze (55 percent). The largest quarterly decreases were in

Myrtle Beach, SC (total lending down 52.7 percent); Knoxville, TN (down 44.5 percent); Charleston, SC (down 43 percent); Ogden, UT (down 41 percent) and Buffalo, NY (down 36.2 percent).

Aside from Buffalo, metro areas with a population of least 1 million that had the biggest decreases in total loans from the second quarter to the third quarter of 2022 were St. Louis, MO (down 35.8 percent); Miami, FL (down 30.4 percent); Washington, DC (down 30.1 percent) and San Jose, CA (down 28.2 percent).

The biggest increases, or smallest decreases, in the total number of mortgages from the second quarter to the third quarter of 2022 were in Hartford, CT (up 5 percent); Syracuse, NY (up 0.8 percent); ClaremontLebanon, NH (up 0.8 percent); Warner Robins, GA (up 0.6 percent) and York, PA (down 0.6 percent).

No metro areas with a population of at least 1 million aside from Hartford saw total loan originations increase from the second to the third quarter of this year.

from 957,515 in second quarter of 2022, 67.9 percent from 2,059,465 in the third quarter of 2021 and 75.3 percent from a peak of 2,680,523 hit in the first quarter of last year. It fell for the sixth straight quarter, the longest run of declines this century. The $212 billion dollar volume of refinance packages in the third quarter of 2022 was down 33 percent from $316.4 billion in the prior quarter and down 67.1 percent from $645.2 billion in the third quarter of 2021.

Refinancing activity decreased from the second quarter of 2022 to the third quarter of 2022 in 208, or 99 percent, of the 210 metropolitan statistical areas around the country with enough data to analyze. Activity dropped quarterly by at least 25 percent in 131 metro areas (62 percent). The largest quarterly decreases were in Myrtle Beach, SC (refinance loans down 62

NOVAK: Too old for a new job?

Q: I had a successful work record in accounting for 10 years prior to returning to school for an MBA. My husband had been laid off from his unimpressive job, so he convinced me to temporarily move back to his hometown in Iowa to be near his aging parents. We both looked for jobs, but there were no large companies in the area, so we both looked for jobs that were beneath our education and work experience.

The pay was extremely low for these jobs, but we took them knowing we were not going to be making this our permanent home. The interviews were personal and unprofessional, as if they didn’t know what they could and could not ask interviewees. I didn’t challenge any of the interviewers because I kept telling myself it was temporary.

We’ve been here three years now. His parents are doing fine, and I’ve had it. I feel if we don’t move to a big city, which is what I’ve always liked, my education would be a complete waste of time and money. Having grown up here, my husband seems to like being back home near his family.

If I decide to move to where I want to live and get a divorce, will it hurt me to be honest in the interviews about why I lived there and took a basic job during these three years? I prefer to be honest, but I don’t want to seem like a bad person

for leaving or weak person to have moved somewhere I didn’t want to go in the beginning. I had always been strong and independent, but now I feel like a fool to have given up three years of my life for a husband who wasn’t successful to begin with. When I married him, I didn’t realize how attached he was to his family.

A: It sounds like you’re beating yourself up for marrying a man you should not have married. The divorce rates vary according to different studies and statistical methods used, but one study reported 50% of all marriages in the U.S. end in divorce or separation; 60% of second marriages end in divorce; and 73% of third marriages end in divorce.

Whether you married the wrong person from the beginning or didn’t know him long enough to know your core values clash with his is irrelevant. It is not in your best interest to stay married to someone who you do not respect and who does not share your values, goals and lifestyle. This is the reason individuals benefit from learning who they are, what they stand for and what they want in life before committing to another person. Love does not solve everything.

Everyone deserves to be happy, so attaining that happiness may require you to move to a new city, get a new job that matches your experience and education, and live the lifestyle you want. Move

first so your resume will show your new location. When you receive job interviews requesting an MBA and qualifications that match to your past work experience, don’t reveal your life story and all its regrets.

You may say you moved to the small town on a temporary basis and realized it was not for you. You will get the job because your work experience matches the

requirements and your personality seems like a good fit into the company culture. Be friendly to your new coworkers, but keep your divorce as private as possible until they know you.

percent); Buffalo, NY (down 59.4 percent); Salinas, CA (down 54.7 percent); Knoxville, TN (down 52.4 percent) and Charleston, SC (down 49.5 percent).

Aside from Buffalo, metro areas with a population of least 1 million that had the biggest decreases in refinance activity from the second quarter to the third quarter of this year were Washington, DC (down 46.9 percent); New York, NY (down 46 percent); Miami, FL (down 45.5 percent) and St. Louis, MO (down 45 percent).

The only metro areas where refinance lending increased from the second quarter to the third quarter were Sioux Falls, SD (up 11.4 percent) and Hartford, CT (up 3.2 percent).

Purchase mortgages decrease for fourth time in last five quarters

Lenders originated 943,242 purchase mortgages in the third quarter of 2022. That was down 15.6 percent from 1,116,939 in the second quarter – the fourth drop in the last five quarters. It also was down 32.7 percent from 1,401,578 in the third quarter of 2021 – the biggest annual decline this century. The $353.9 billion dollar volume of purchase loans in the third quarter of 2022 was down 18.9 percent from $436.2 billion in the prior quarter and down 28.4 percent from $494 billion a year earlier.

Residential purchase-mortgage originations decreased from the second quarter of 2022 to the third quarter of 2022 in 173 of the 210 metro areas in the report (82 percent) and dipped annually in 206 metro areas (98 percent).

The largest quarterly decreases were in Myrtle Beach, SC (purchase loans down 50.8 percent); Ogden, UT (down 47.6

percent); Naples, FL (down 41.8 percent); Charleston, SC (down 41.3 percent) and Knoxville, TN (down 40.1 percent).

Metro areas with a population of at least 1 million that saw the biggest quarterly decreases in purchase originations in the third quarter of 2022 were St. Louis, MO (down 30.3 percent); San Jose, CA (down 30.3 percent); San Francisco, CA (down 29.3 percent); Los Angeles, CA (down 28.6 percent) and Miami, FL (down 28.5 percent).

Residential purchase-mortgage lending increased most from the second quarter to the third quarter of 2022 in Syracuse, NY (up 24.9 percent); Claremont-Lebanon, NH (up 24.3 percent); Rochester, NY (up 20 percent); Dayton, OH (up 18.9 percent) and Kalamazoo, MI (up 15.7 percent).

Aside from Rochester, metro areas with a population of at least 1 million where purchase originations rose most from the second to the third quarter were Minneapolis, MN (up 11.9 percent); Hartford, CT (up 6.1 percent); Grand Rapids, MI (up 5.2 percent) and Pittsburgh, PA (up 0.5 percent).

HELOC lending up for fifth time in six quarters

A total of 364,921 home-equity lines of credit (HELOCs) were originated on residential properties in the third quarter of 2022, up 5.1 percent from 347,086 in the prior quarter and up 47.8 percent from 246,957 in the third quarter of 2021.

HELOC activity increased for the fifth time in six quarters after it had decreased in each of the prior six quarters. The $70.5 billion third-quarter 2022 volume of HELOC loans was up 4.7 percent from $67.3 billion in the second quarter of 2022 and 47.5 percent from $47.8 billion in

the third quarter of last year, hitting the highest point in four years.

HELOCs comprised 18.5 percent of all third-quarter 2022 loans – almost four times the 4.8 percent level from the first quarter of 2021.

“While HELOC activity has dramatically increased over the past few quarters, its growth rate slowed down significantly on a quarter-to-quarter basis, which raises the question of whether we might be at or near a cyclical peak in HELOC activity,” Sharga added. “Even with the recent increases, HELOC volume is still nowhere near the record level of activity we saw in the mid2000s during the run-up to the financial crisis.”

The largest increases in metro areas with a population of at least 1 million were in New Orleans, LA (home-equity loans up 52.8 percent); Houston, TX (up 47.5 percent); Dallas, TX (up 35.4 percent); Tucson, AZ (up 32.8 percent); and Atlanta, GA (up 30.9 percent).

The largest quarterly decreases in HELOCs among metro areas with a population of at least 1 million were in Buffalo, NY (down 31.9 percent); St. Louis, MO (down 26.7 percent); Honolulu, HI (down 14.5 percent); San Jose, CA (down 10.9 percent) and Rochester, NY (down 9.1 percent).

FHA and VA loan portions tick upward

Mortgages backed by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) rose as a portion of all lending for the fourth straight quarter, accounting for 224,021, or 11.4 percent, of all residential property loans originated in the third quarter of 2022. That was up from 10.7 percent in the second quarter of 2022 and 9.3 percent in

the third quarter of 2021.

Residential loans backed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) accounted for 103,314 or 5.2 percent, of all residential property loans originated in the third quarter of 2022. That was up from 5.1 percent in the previous quarter but still down from 6.3 percent a year earlier. VA lending as a portion of all loans rose after seven consecutive quarterly declines.

Typical amount borrowed to finance purchase decreases to threeyear low

The median amount borrowed nationwide to buy a home went down in the third quarter of 2022 for the first time in three years, while the typical down payment on homes purchased with financing also decreased. At the same time, the ratio of median down payments to home prices went down.

Among homes purchased with financing in the third quarter of 2022, the median loan amount was $315,000. That was down 4.5 percent from $330,000 the prior quarter, following 10 straight increases. However, it was still up 4.2 percent from $302,197 in the same period in 2021. The median down payment on single-family homes and condos purchased with financing in the third quarter of 2022 decreased to $34,975, down 12.5 percent from $39,980 in the previous quarter, although still up 11.9 percent from $31,250 in the third quarter of 2021.

The typical down payment in the third quarter of this year represented 9.3 percent of the purchase price, down from 10.2 percent in the prior quarter but still up from 8.9 percent a year earlier.

Stocks rally after Fed chair signals slowdown in rate hikes

BY DAMIAN J. TROISE AND ALEX VEIGA AP BUSINESS WRITERS

Stocks rallied on Wall Street after the head of the Federal Reserve said the central bank could soon ease up on its aggressive pace of interest rate hikes aimed at taming inflation. While citing some signs that inflation is cooling, Fed Chair Jerome Powell stressed that the Fed will push rates higher than previously expected and keep them there for an extended period. The S&P 500 jumped 3.1% Wednesday. The tech-heavy Nasdaq rose 4.4% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 2.2%. Treasury yields fell broadly and crude oil prices rose. Major indexes ended November with their second straight month of gains.

Stocks rallied and Treasury yields fell Wednesday after the head of the Federal Reserve said that the central bank could soon begin easing up on its aggressive interest rate increases aimed at taming inflation.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell, speaking at the Brookings Institution, reaffirmed that the central bank could begin moderating its pace of rate hikes as soon as December, when the policymaking committee is due to hold its next meeting.

“We have a risk management balance to strike,” Powell said. “And we think that slowing down (on rate hikes) at this point is a good way to balance the risks.”

While citing some recent signs that inflation is cooling, Powell stressed that the Fed will push rates higher than previously expected and keep them there for an extended period to ensure inflation comes down sufficiently.

“History cautions strongly against prematurely loosening policy,” Powell said. “We will stay the course until the job is done.”

Stock indexes, which had been wavering ahead of Powell’s remarks at 1:30 p.m. Eastern, rose broadly in afternoon trading. The S&P 500 rose 2% as of 3:01 p.m. Eastern, on pace to snap a three-day losing streak. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 420 points, or 1.3%, to 34,277, and the Nasdaq climbed 3.1%.

Treasury yields fell. The yield on the 10-year Treasury dropped to 3.70% from 3.75% late Tuesday. The yield on the twoyear note, which tends to track market expectations of future Fed action, fell to 4.38%. It was trading at 4.48% late Tuesday and had been as high as 4.53% shortly before Powell’s speech.

Major indexes have been unsteady as the economy and financial markets deal with stubbornly hot inflation and the Fed’s attempt to cool high prices with aggressive interest rate increases. Still, the benchmark S&P 500 and the Dow are solidly on track to close out November in the green, which would mark their second straight monthly gain.

U.S. crude oil prices climbed 3%.

All of the company sectors in the benchmark S&P 500 rose, with technology and communication stocks powering much of the rally. Apple rose 3.5% and Netflix jumped 8.6%.

Markets in Asia and Europe closed mostly higher.

Wall Street has been hoping that the Fed will slow the scale and pace of its interest rate hikes. The central bank has been very clear about its intent to raise interest rates until it is sure inflation is cooling.

The Fed has raised its benchmark interest rate six times since March, driving it to a range of 3.75% to 4%, the highest in 15 years. The goal is to make borrowing more difficult and generally slow the economy in order to tame inflation.

Those increases have helped send mortgage rates sharply higher, causing home sales to plunge, and it has raised costs for most other consumer and business loans. Many economists expect the U.S. will slip into a recession next year as higher borrowing costs slow economic activity.

In his remarks Wednesday, Powell said the Fed may increase its key interest rate by a smaller increment at its December meeting, only a half-point, after four straight three-quarter point hikes.

“Cutting rates is not something we want to do soon,” Powell said. “That’s why we’re slowing down.”

The economy has been slowing, but

contains strong pockets that have given markets hope that a recession could be avoided. The government on Wednesday said the economy grew at a 2.9% annual rate from July through September, an upgrade from its initial estimate.

Consumers have continued spending, despite of inflation squeezing wallets, and the overall employment market remains strong.

The employment market remains a big focus for the Fed and investors. It’s strength has helped the broader economy, but makes it more difficult to cool inflation.

“If we can get a weaker labor market, we’ll probably get weaker wage pressure,” said Scott Ladner, chief investment officer at Horizon Investments. “That’s sort of the last shoe to drop with inflation.”

Economic data on Wednesday showed signs of a softening labor market, though it remains relatively strong historically.

The U.S. government reported that job openings dropped in October more than economists had anticipated. Human resources company ADP reported an easing in private sector employment growth in November.

Investors will get more data Thursday on the employment sector with a report on weekly unemployment claims. The closely watched monthly report on the job market will be released on Friday.
