Clearwater FL |The Recession is Over
April 9th, 2010 Categories: Community News, Tampa Mortgage News
Clearwater FL – Everyone’s been wondering when the Recession would be over. We’ve been waiting for good news in the Job Market and recent trends indicate positive changes, while real income continues to exceed GDP, and it arrived this month.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports on April 2, 2010:
“Nonfarm payroll employment increased by 162,000 in March, and the unemployment rate held at 9.7 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today.”

Also, on April 9, 2010, Frank Nothaft, Freddie Mac vice president and chief economist said:
“Once again, mortgage rates followed bond yields higher amid a positive March employment report. The economy added 162,000 jobs, which was the largest monthly gain over the past three years. In addition, revisions raised the January and February figures by a combined 61,000 workers. Excluding government employees, private payrolls rose for the third consecutive month and were the strongest increase since May 2007.”

And finally, Jeff Frankel, of Harvard, an arbiter at the National Bureau of Economic Research proclaims “The recession is over.”

Clearwater FL Pending Home Sales Soar In February,Buyers Are Everywhere.
April 7th, 2010 Categories: Clearwater Florida
Clearwater FL – 
As expected, the Clearwater FL Pending Home Sales shot higher in February, boosted by the federal home buyer tax credit’s April 30 deadline.
Versus the month prior, February’s index rose 8 percent but remains well off the highs set last October.
For today’s home buyers and seller, the Pending Home Sales Index is an important measurement. This is because a “pending home” is a property that is under contract to sell, but not yet closed.
According to the National Association of Realtors®, 80% of homes under contract close within 60 days, historically. Therefore, a higher Pending Sales figure in February projects that April’s Existing Home Sales will be higher, too.
If you’re a ClearwaterFL home buyer today, no doubt you’ve noticed the extra market activity.
On right-priced homes, multiple offer situations are more common; sales prices are settling closer to listing price; Days on market is falling. These are the signs of a buyer-heavy market. It drives home supplies down and home prices up.
It’s a good time to be a seller, in other words. Especially as buyer activity looks poised to peak.
When the home buyer credit faced its last expiration in November 2009, we saw a pattern of buyers rushing to beat the deadline. There’s no reason to expect that won’t happen again. And as it does, Pending Home Sales should continue to climb. Average home sale prices should rise.
Clearwater FL Home buyers may find it smart to go under contract sooner rather than later. Pending Clearwater Home Sales is a warning shot. Higher home sales figures are ahead. Your Clearwater FL Realtors (Jack and Cyndee Haydon) will be able to let you know exactly what’s happening in your neighborhood right now.
