3 ADDENDUM TO RDC MARKET UPDATE, 4th QUARTER, 2012 MADISON/DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN Wisconsin Reported by the WRA MADISON, WI Wisconsin s housing market rebounded in 2012, with sales of existing home sales up substantially and median prices up modestly, according to the latest figures released by the Wisconsin REALTORS Association (WRA). of existing homes for 2012 were 20.7 percent above the levels of 2011, and the statewide median price increased 1.1 percent to $133,500 over that same period. We ve seen very strong growth in home sales for the last year and a half, which is an indication that buyers perceive the value of investing in housing again, said Renny Diedrich, Chairman of the WRA Board of Directors. She noted that robust growth in home sales was seen throughout the state, with every region growing by double digits. Four of the six regions saw home sales grow by more than 20 percent over the past year. Specifically, sales were up 23.1 percent in the Central region and grew 22.8 percent in the Southeast, which is the most populous region. Home sales in 2012 grew 21.9 percent in the South Central region, and they were up over 2011 levels by 21.2 percent in the Northeast. Finally, sales were up 17.7 percent in the North region and increased 13.3 percent in the West. As we know, the economic downturn in 2007 was precipitated in large part by problems in the housing sector, so we re hopeful that this growth, which mirrors national trends, will help strengthen the economic recovery, said Diedrich. Median prices have increased in eight of the last nine months, ending the year up 1.1 percent, which is a welcomed sign, said WRA President and CEO, Michael Theo. Even though Wisconsin avoided the substantial price bubble seen in places like Arizona, California, Nevada and Florida, Theo noted that the recession did pull home prices down in the state as foreclosure activity and inventory levels both trended upward. We ve now reversed those trends, which has stabilized our home prices in 2012, said Theo. Statewide, foreclosure activity peaked in 2009 with more than 28,500 unique cases of foreclosure, and that number fell to just under 23,000 unique cases in The decline in foreclosure activity has helped bring our statewide inventories down to 8.9 months in December 2012, which is well below the 12.5 months that existed this time last year, said Theo. He noted that the number of unsold homes in December also dropped 6.1 percent since November to just over 46,000. The upward trend in median prices, including a substantial one-month increase of 10.4 percent in December 2012 relative to December 2011, did not dampen affordability, due primarily to very low mortgage rates. With 30-year conventional mortgage rates at 3.35 percent and a slight increase in estimated median family income, housing in Wisconsin remained very affordable in December, said Theo. The Wisconsin Housing

4 Affordability Index, which measures the percentage of a median-priced home that a buyer with the median family income can afford, stood at 269 in December Assuming that the economic problems in Europe as well as the unresolved budget issues at the federal level don t lead to recession, we expect continued growth in sales and modest price appreciation over the next year, said Theo, who noted that there is pent-up demand among those who have been waiting for the housing market to bottom out. It is clear that there was solid improvement in home sales in The slight upward movement in median home prices in 2012 will likely get some potential buyers off the fence in 2013, but the key to ongoing growth in housing is sustained employment growth in the state, which has been anemic at best this past year, he said Wisconsin Home up 20.7% from South Central Home up 21.9% from Dane County Home up 27% from Dane County Median Home declined by 2% from 2011 Madison/Dane County local - Companies continue to move in to our area although not necessarily large employers. This has brought more relocating transferees in to our area which will enhance the real estate market. Transferees continue to seek out rental units however pricing is reaching the threshold where Transferee s are deciding to purchase instead of rent (less expensive). And Transferees are selling their homes quicker which, in turn, allows them to purchase in our area. The employment situation continues to stabilize with more companies hiring (especially from outside the area). Healthcare, Insurance and Biotech are consistent with hiring. The typical buyer in our market is encoutering low pricing of homes and an increase in Buyer activity. Buyers, in some cases, are experiencing multiple offers on properties, alot of activity at open houses. The market activity increased much earlier in 2012 than in recent years which put a spark in to Buyers. Madison/Dane County s housing market exceeded expectations with 20-27% more home and condo sales. The rental market at this time is very strong and very tight. Renters are experiencing low inventory to choose from. Rental pricing is increasing and Buyers are realizing that it may be more cost effective to purchase than rent. Singly family home rentals are less available than in recent years as Homeowners wishing to sell their homes notice the active Buyer market at this time. Apartment homes, townhomes/condos and duplexes are the typical rental available. Moreover, Landlords are forced to deal with Renters whom have larger families and pets. Some communities are saturated with condo's for sale (some that have gone in to foreclosure) and the Landlord/owners need money coming in therefore are renting to less qualified renters which devalues the properties.
