1 Homeownership Remains Unaffordable; Rental Affordability Showing Signs of Improvement Richard E. Taylor, Research Manager at MaineHousing MaineHousing has released the 217 Maine Homeownership and Rental Affordability Index. The index indicates buying or renting a home in Maine remains unaffordable. The index provides a statewide, county and local breakdown of home buying and rental affordability. The index calculation is based on the ratio of home prices affordable at median household income to median home price. A ratio at or above 1 indicates homes are affordable while below 1 indicates they are unaffordable. Homeownership Remains Unaffordable In 217, home buying in Maine remained unaffordable for the second year in a row as the index moved from.97 down to.93. The median home price increased 7.1%, or $13, to a postrecession high of $197,. Driving the affordability gap, median household income has not kept pace, rising only 4.3% to $53,19, also a post-recession high. As the market began recovering in 21, the combination of higher inventories of foreclosed and low cost homes, historically low interest rates, and income growth outpacing home prices led to a brief two year time frame, , when buying a home became affordable at median income. After 215, the gap between income and median home prices narrowed and home buying returned to being unaffordable. $2, $195, $19, $185, $18, $175, $17, $165, $16, $155, Median Income and Median Home Price $54, $53, $52, $51, $5, $49, $48, $47, $46, $45, $44, Median Home Price Source: US Census, ACS 1 Year Survey and Maine Association of Realtors Median Income The Inventory Problem High demand and low inventory pushes up home prices. The current dearth of new construction and the increased use of single-family units as rentals (12% increase) combined with a declining population and slowing in-migration, have contributed to slower household formation and low inventory. Additionally, many of the single-family homes being rented were those of owners who were underwater or in negative equity. Though increasing home values and sales prices have lessened that issue, many owners may have kept the property as a rental because demand for rental 1

2 Homeownership Rate Vacancy Rate Inventory units remained strong. The average days on market in Maine has gone from 78 in 213 to 35 in 217. Based on current sales rates, there is about 6 months of inventory available. As we move from spring to summer that inventory will likely decrease Single-Family Unit Inventory Maine 1st Qtr 218 Source: Zillow Inventory Historical Changes Maine s homeownership rate, among the highest in the nation has been declining since the peak of the pre-recession housing boom. The decline in vacancies has been less steady but took the most considerable one-year drop from 216 to 217 when vacancies reached a 12 year annual low of 1.2 percent.

3 Total Valuation Units More Expensive New Units Increasing costs of land, building materials, and labor are driving the cost of new single-family development upward putting many of the new units out of reach for first time home buyers. This trend will likely force younger buyers who do decide to buy to purchase existing homes as opposed to new regardless of the financing program. Total Valuation and Permits for Single-Family Homes $1,4, 9, $1,2, $1,, $8, $755,783 8, 7, 6, 5, $6, $4, $2, Single Family Unit Value Single Family Units 3,583 4, 3, 2, 1, $ Source: US Census, Residential Construction Survey, Units Authorized, Table 2u Unadjusted The Shift to Renting Continues Current flat homes sales in Maine may be due, in part, to the continued shift to renting. Households 64 and younger continue to rent in increasing numbers. Those households in the 25 to 54 age cohorts have historically bought homes at greater rates than other age groups. For households 25 to 34, continuing to rent is attributed to high home prices, student debt, and the locational preferences of younger Maine residents. 3

4 Renting Is Still Unaffordable but Improving The rental affordability index measurement is based on the ratio of a 2-bedroom rent affordable at median renter income to average 2-bedroom price. In 217, renting an apartment remained unaffordable but the statewide index score improved to.88 up from.85 in 216. The improving affordability index score is due primarily to a leveling off of average two-bedroom rents and improvements in renter incomes Affordable MaineHousing Affordability Index Jan-9 1-Jan-1 1-Jan-11 1-Jan-12 1-Jan-13 1-Jan-14 1-Jan-15 1-Jan-16 1-Jan-17 Home Ownership Renting Source: MaineHousing More Rental Units but Fewer Affordable The rental vacancy rate has reached its lowest point in over a decade but there are fewer affordable units in stock. The supply of affordable rental units has shrunk by over 6, units since 211. This is approximately the same number of homes that have fallen from the owned category between 211 and 216 and may reflect the growth in single-family rental units. The increase in single-family rental units which are generally larger homes has likely contributed to increased rents and subsequently, continued market unaffordability. As with single-family owned units, multifamily construction activity has increased but has yet to return to pre-recession levels. 4

Buying a home will remain out of reach for a growing number of Maine residents. On the rental side of the equation, various forecasts have predicted a softening of rents, as the MaineHousing index suggests. The forecasts of rental prices leveling off are largely based on greater participation in home ownership, particularly among prime age buyers. If rental prices are beginning to decrease, the decrease is not occurring at the levels needed to bring rental prices down to an affordable level. 5
