HISTORY HINTS THAT HOUSING REVIVAL MERELY TAKING BREATHE
The current recovery started off faster than the 1990s edition – with Southern California home-buying pace jumping 40% within 18 months. The current 70-month marker is just 36% above the bottom of July 2008. Prices are still 10% down in that same time frame…you can take comfort from history or sweat the imperfections of this recovery.

HIGH-PRICED SALES BREAKING RECORDS
The U.S. trophy home market is shattering price records this year as an increasing number of residential properties change hands for more than $1 million. Purchases costing $1 million or more represented 2% of sales and rose 7.8% from a year earlier.

O.C.HOMES SELL FASTER THAN MOST OTHER METRO AREAS IN NATION
Orange County is still a seller’s market, with just 45% of homes listed at least two month ago were still for sale in mid-April. Nationally, 55% were still on the market for the same time.

FORECLOSURES DROP 45% IN REGION
Lenders seized or auctioned 45%  fewer homes in Southern California during the first quarter of 2014 than during the same period a year earlier.

MARCH 2013 SOUTH ORANGE COUNTY REAL ESTATE

Southland Begins 2013 With Sales and Price Gains Vs. Year Earlier

This fledgling housing recovery has momentum. Already, price hikes have caused some to question whether it's sustainable, whether it's a 'bubble.' Let's not forget, though, that we're still climbing out of a deep hole from the housing downturn.

Increased Inventory: For the overall market, price pressures should gradually ease as more homeowners react to rising values. This is the 'supply response' many analysts expect. The idea is that many who've held out for higher prices will be tempted to stick a for-sale sign in the front yard. Fewer will owe more than their homes are worth, enabling them to sell. Construction is already rising, and we could see lenders clear backlogs of distressed properties faster, adding to the supply.

Market Conditions: A lot of today's housing demand is fueled not by spectacular job growth and soaring consumer confidence, but by super-low mortgage rates and unusually high levels of investor and cash purchases. Take away any one of those elements and it will matter.
