A Silver Lining in the Real Estate Market
Dear Homeowners,
As the economic debate rages throughout the country, I believe we would all agree this is an “opportunistic time” for Buyers. While most of us worry about our home values, next paycheck, and the general direction of our retirement portfolios we should take heart that we are doing better than most of the country. Our unemployment rate is not as high, our home values have not been hit as hard, and foremost we live in one of the most beautiful places in the country or world. Instead let’s stay upbeat, focus on how good this valley is doing, and spread a positive attitude throughout the community. Please pass along to me any good news that I can share throughout our community or post in my blog. I’ll continue to keep you informed of the market activity including when property has SOLD.
The market will return, there will be a shortage of homes again, banks will lend, and we will all recover. If you know of someone with the ability or the need to purchase a home encourage them to turn off the television, have some faith, step forward, and make one of the best investments by buying real estate. History has proven that real estate is a excellent investment. Later, in hindsight, anyone who had the ability to and did not buy will be kicking themselves.
Enclosed is general down valley real estate market information – this will help you get a better grasp on what’s selling, what’s on the market, how areas differ by price, and how your home might compare analytically which these days is often the only way it is looked at. Remember, a few of the most important things in real estate; 1) location, location, location; 2) “each to their own” meaning some demand a 3 car garage and storage and others couldn’t live without the granite; 3) Price. While upgrades were important and builders could demand a higher price for them – now price and condition take priority with both buyer’s and appraisers.
Please let me know if you’d like a customized comparative market analysis specific to an area or your home. As always, do not hesitate if you have any questions that I maybe able to help you with.
Best Regards,
Team Vail Mountain Realty

Mortgage Rates Set Another New Low
Mortgage rates are on a roll — downward, that is — for the tenth consecutive week, Freddie Mac (FRE: 0.76 -2.56%) reported Wednesday. 30-year fixed-rate mortgages averaged a shockingly low 5.01 percent with an average 0.6 point this week, down from 5.10 percent last week and 5.87 percent a year ago.
“Interest rates for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages fell for the tenth week to a fourth consecutive record low due in part to the Federal Reserve’s recent purchases of mortgage-backed securities issued by Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae and Ginnie Mae,” said Frank Nothaft, Freddie Mac vice president and chief economist. “Since the end of October 2008, these rates have declined by almost 1 1/2 percentage points, or payment savings of about $184 a month for a $200,000 loan. – an additional $11 dollars from last week.”
Rates on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also eased, averaging 4.62 percent with an average 0.7 point, down from last week’s 4.83 percent average, according to the GSE’s weekly survey. And five-year Treasury-indexed ARMS fell from 5.57 percent last week to 5.49 percent.
One-year Treasury-indexed ARMS actually rose to 4.95 percent from 4.85 percent last week.
Bankrate.com’s weekly mortgage rate survey also reported a drop in mortgage rates. The benchmark 30-year fixed-rate, according to Bankrate, fell 31 basis points to 5.33 percent. The average 15-year fixed-rate mortgage also fell 31 basis points to 4.85 percent.
Bankrate’s Holden Lewis said in his mortgage analysis report that the Federal Reserve’s move to promise a “shopping spree for mortgage backed securities” last week, has indeed played a role in rates.
“Think of the Fed as an extremely deep-pocketed bank, competing with other banks to provide money for mortgages,” Holden said. “When banks compete, you win: Rates go lower.”
