How rising values influence our markets

Notas do Editor

  1. Edit the “brought to you by” section to add you name, paste in a logo, etc.
  2. This recession has certainly had an impact on housing prices
  3. In virtually every area, values have fallen and in some areas, by significant amounts
  4. Housing certainly seems to be risky business
  5. At least that’s what they’re telling us on the news
  6. They say we had a bubble and that now it’s popped
  7. Foreclosures are common
  8. And buyers are sometimes negotiating directly with the bank
  9. They call them short, but they’re quite the opposite
  10. Short or long, there’s enough to go around
  11. The bailouts have helped
  12. Still many are sinking
  13. And some are all the way under
  14. It’s not a pretty picture.
  15. And as a result, people wonder if a home is the right place to put their money.
  16. This is a new perspective though, for a look back at the history, tells a different story
  17. Sailors from the old world discovered the “new world.”
  18. That changed quickly and deals were made. Critics still argue to this day whether this ever really occurred or if it was ever really understood. While it may have seemed like a good deal for both sides at the time,
  19. One can wonder whether the original deal makers could ever imagine what that first transaction would lead to and how happy they would be if they could see Manhattan now.
  20. So in reality, either side has plenty to be happy about.
  21. Imagine if you could have told the original participants in this deal that the piece of paper they were signing would someday trade for thousands of times more than the cost of the land itself?
  22. Manhattan was but a tiny sliver of the tribal area which stretched from Maryland, through New Jersey, Pennsylvania and upstate NY to Connecticut border. The population was only about 24,000.
  23. As incomes grew, so too did the size and makeup of our country. We can’t really draw correlations to the cost of the original purchases for there were many extraneous geo-political factors but it is still interesting to look at something like the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 which doubled the size of the US at the time and for the cost of only 15 Million dollars. This is less than what some individual apartments sell for in today’s New York City. The population at this time was estimated at 97,000. There were other great deals like the purchase of Alaska from the Russians for less than 2 cents an acre or the Mexican Secession which included what became California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and more - price wise, I believe it’s less than what Oprah paid for her pool house.
  24. And then you have really expensive homes like this one owned by the Mrs. Spelling that went on the market for 150MM. That’s more than all of the separate purchases that assembled our entire country- We of course have not adjusted for inflation in and if so, the numbers would be dramatically different but how many sellers or buyers do you know that think that way? While they should as it can help them to make better decisions but the point of this is simply to show in a grand way that despite short term setbacks, prices have only gone in one direction as our country and population grew.
  25. Immigration was and still is a factor in population growth.
  26. And growing populations fueled the birth and growth of cities
  27. And some of those new Americans obtained jobs building those cities, ever larger and ever higher- This continues today.
  28. Just over the last 50 years the population has doubled from 150 to 300 Million
  29. Each year, the population increases by 3MM people and with an average of 3 per household, that’s a million new homes that are needed every year.
  30. Manhattan went from looking like this, to looking like this
  31. From a sparsely populated new land to quite the opposite in just a few hundred years. As bad as things may sometimes seem at the moment, a few years are nothing but a drop in the bucket of history.
  32. Next to population growth, income growth is arguably the next most important factor in rising real estate values
  33. We see in this chart, that there are periods of great disruption and turmoil yet over time, that per capita income has risen steadily over time
  34. Over many years we transitioned from a predominantly agrarian society to an industrialized one
  35. And as our territories grew and prospered, so too did the means for traveling amongst them.
  36. Factories provided work beyond that needed for self sustenance
  37. Women joined the workforce and started bring home paychecks
  38. Today, women are not only in the workforce but achieving powerful positions
  39. And not only has their participation and power increased but they are proving themselves highly capable of performing tasks previously deemed inapproprate.
  40. Continuing its ascent, income rises and with it, the ability for more to own their own homes.
  41. For those that made the investment early on
  42. And that have held on over the years- have made their mark not only on the books but in their personal financial well being.
  43. Yet, it’s not always a straight line up. There have been periods before that have deteriorated property values. There are more myths than fact regarding these and to this day, people allow the emotions instilled by events long ago to impact their decisions today even though the circumstances may have changed completely.
  44. Perhaps the single worst period for home values and ownership. Most of those with mortgages lost their homes. The attitude that loans are bad still persists today yet all the rules have changed and banks can’t “call” your loan simply because they want their money back. You have to miss payments, default and be subject to foreclosure before you lose your home and looking at current efforts to stem this tide, we see the changes that have occurred since this much darker event.
  45. War. It’s easy to understand how this can be a negative influence on housing yet it can go the other way too as this country saw one of the biggest building booms ever after the end of world war II.
  46. Tensions created based on the unknown or near war situations can be just as bad
  47. Yet, the threat of war doesn’t stop the need for everyone to have a place to live.
  48. Changes in leadership and the resultant crises, victories or fundamental global changes that come with it can influence the markets yet still, never really change the need for shelter.
  49. More recently, we’ve seen terrorism strike repeatedly within our borders. This can roil markets and in some ways, may have even helped to trigger more residential investment as people gravitated towards family and home-
  50. Turmoil in the financial markets can sap wealth and healthy retirement plans in just days
  51. It’s happened before, and it will
  52. Happen again.
  53. Taking a look at just the last 4 or 5 decades, we’ve seen many such disasters and most of these are isolated within our own country.
  54. Yet trough this same period and despite all of these presumably negative events, real estate values rose steadily
  55. As we can see, appreciation will vary from year to year and can even go down- yet the averages over time are quite healthy
  56. This will vary by region and vary even further by state yet from the lowest to the highest averages, all equal healthy appreciation over typical periods of ownership.
  57. And values have risen over time despite the peaks and valleys of inflation ….and unemployment
  58. The same can be said despite mortgage rates peaking over 18% and averaging well above where we are today
  59. If we take a look at what this appreciation can mean on an average monthly basis, it’s pretty surprising. Now, no one is mailing you a check for this of course, but over time, it is the average benefit received for the price levels used here.
  60. Boiling a lot of these elements down such as price, rates and income, we see the percentage of income used to purchase a median priced home. Surprising to many is that it’s not just a sales pitch but a statistical fact that it’s never been less expensive to purchase a home than at any time in the last 46 years.
  61. Some will yearn for the good old days when you buy a lot for building for just a couple hundred dollars
  62. Or as time went on, a couple thousand
  63. The opportunities we are looking at right now will likely be looked at in the same way in the future.
  64. Infrastructure continues to deliver more people and things to other places
  65. And to do it faster than ever before
  66. Cities continue to grow
  67. Our society advances and with it, the earning potential of more and more people
  68. We see the banking world change from S&L’s
  69. To Fannie and Freddie. And though they have their problems now- they are still likely to be responsible in the future for the vast majority of home loans
  70. There are always going to be those that only see the problems
  71. And then there will be the few that understand the important concepts and opportunities when they appear
  72. As the market changes
  73. So some will struggle
  74. While other seize the day
  75. And it takes more than vision to make prognostications. You have to also be willing to thought of as being a little crazy. Calling a bottom in the stock market of just over a year ago when you others like famed economist NourielRoubini AKA Dr. Doom had all the attention of the press. As we look at what the Dow Jones Industrials have done since the crazy man’s call vs. what Dr. Doom had predicted, we can see pretty clearly that it’s more often the popular opinion and the consensus that’s wrong.

  77. So never be afraid to stand out from the crowd. It might be 6 months, it might be a few years but at some point sooner than later, your clients will thank you
  78. Everyone knows what is said about hindsight, but it’s foresight that’s the rare commodity.
  79. And it’s from a clear understanding of history and the factors that have influenced it that the best basis for foresight is derived. We see what our markets have done, yet over time, it’s not a stretch to see where they will likely to continue to go and it’s those that have this vision to look forward that will make the best decisions for themselves now.
