1 Residential Real Estate, Demographics, and the Economy Presented to: Regional & Community Bankers Conference Yolanda K. Kodrzycki Senior Economist and Policy Advisor Federal Reserve Bank of Boston October 11, 2006

2 Overview Housing markets have weakened across the nation. It is not clear how a correction will play out, though a major decline in prices is unlikely. New England s current housing cycle looks similar to national. New England population trends pose longer-term risks for housing market.

14 Why is the national housing market correcting? Two views: #1 Prices got too high relative to incomes. Housing bubbles have to burst. #2 Prices rose because interest rates got so low. Now interest rates have risen.

15 #1 The housing bubble story Assumes that economic fundamentals explain house-price-to-income ratios over long stretches of time. Fundamentals include mortgage rates, incomes and employment, building costs & constraints, amenities. Average house-price-to-income ratios can differ across cities. For any given city, big gap between actual house prices and fundamentalsbased prices indicates overvaluation. Sustained overvaluation housing bubble.

16 #1 The housing bubble story (continued) Timing of the bubble bursting is unpredictable. Decrease in housing sales volume is a leading indicator. Eventually, sellers adjust their price expectations downward to match what buyers are willing to pay. House prices stagnate or fall.

17 About one-half of all metro areas are overvalued, according to National City Number of metro areas at least 13% overvalued (317 metro areas total) Q Q Q Q Source: National City Corporation.

18 California and Florida have many severely overvalued markets, according to National City. Of the 60 metropolitan areas with overvaluation >= 40 percent: 26 are in California 14 are in Florida 20 are in other parts of the U.S. (including 5 in the Northeast) 0 are in New England Overvaluation among New England metropolitan areas is mixed: Barnstable, MA 34.7% Springfield, MA 18.2% Providence, RI 29.5% New Haven, CT 14.6% Worcester, MA 27.0% Boston, MA 5.7% Manchester, NH 21.5% Hartford, CT 5.5% Source: National City Corporation.

19 51 metro areas were overvalued by more than 30% at some time during Almost ALL experienced a significant price decline Number of metro areas with house price declines of: Less than 10% 10% - 15% 15% - 20% 20% - 30% Over 30% Source: National City Corporation.

20 134 metro areas were overvalued by between 13% and 30% at some time during experienced NO significant price decline. 120 Number of metro areas with house price declines of: Less than 10% 10% - 15% 15% - 20% 20% - 30% Over 30% Source: National City Corporation.

21 House prices usually fell by LESS than estimated overvaluation in the 1980s. 60% 50% Dallas San Antonio Abilene, TX Price Decline Less than Overvaluation 40% Austin Overvaluation at Peak Price 30% 20% 10% 0% New London Boston Hartford New Haven Bridgeport/Stamford Tampa Palm Beach Memphis New Orleans Price Decline Greater than Overvaluation -10% Talahassee, FL -20% Casper, Wy -30% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% Peak to Trough Price Decline Source: National City Corporation, OFHEO.

22 #2 The interest rate story Backs out equilibrium price of owner-occupied housing, based on likely returns. Key determinants include interest rates, rents for comparable units, tax laws, reasonable estimates of capital gains. House prices can differ across cities. (continued)

23 #2 The interest rate story (continued) For any given city, big gap between actual and equilibrium prices indicates one of two things: People using flawed information OR People s decisions based on factors that economic models don t include Eventually, house prices return to equilibrium.

24 Interest rates got very low in the early 2000s and lenders offered new mortgage products 16 Interest rates, percent Effective Mortgage Interest Rate Year Treasury Yield Source: Federal Reserve Board, Federal Home Finance Board.

25 Careful study by Himmelberg-Mayer-Sinai concluded that house prices in most markets are not much higher than equilibrium levels. In Q4 2003, only 4 metro areas (out of 47 total) had an imputed rent on owner-occupied housing greater than prevailing market rents. By Q4 2005, 26 metro areas were overvalued by this measure. However, very few markets were severely overvalued. Overvaluation in Q Number of metros Less than 10% 11 10% - 15% 4 15% - 20% 5 Over 20% 6

26 Increase in interest rates puts downward pressure on prices. But, as in the housing bubble story: Timing is unpredictable Decrease in home sales is a leading indicator Eventually, sellers adjust their prices to match what buyers are willing to pay House prices stagnate or fall So our housing market data don t tell us which model is correct!

27 House price declines are correlated with recessions. 1980s case study of 41 state house price booms: 15 states had a recession In 13, house prices fell. 26 states had no recession House prices fell in only 7.

28 Combining and extrapolating: National home prices likely to be flat in 2006, rise modestly in % 12% 4-Quarter Percent Change in US House Prices 10% 8% 6% 4% 2% HMS extrapolation Q4: 2007 Key assumptions for Personal income +5% annually Mortgage rates +100 b.p. in 06, flat in 07 Rents flat HMS extrapolation Q4: 2006 National City extrapolation Q4: 2006 National City extrapolation Q4: 2007 Q4: 1990 Q4: % -2% Number of Metro Areas with a House Price Decline (out of 183) Source: Kodrzycki and Gerew Using State and Metropolitan Area House Price Cycles To Interpret the U.S. Housing Market, forthcoming.

29 How about New England housing markets? Overvaluation measures not out of line here, as they were in the 1980s. Interest rate movements same as national. Economy and demographics different from national both plusses and minuses.

30 Fortunately, construction is not a major driver of the New England economy 14% 12% Construction employment as percentage of total nonfarm employment 10% Nevada 8% Arizona 6% United States 4% New England 2% 0% Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics.

31 Slow regional population growth limits demand for housing Population Thousands for NE and MA, Ten-thousands for US United States New England Massachusetts Source: Bureau of the Census.

32 High presence of baby-boomers poses risks over the coming decade. Share of population ages 45 to 64 years old: United States: 25.0% New England: 27.0% Move to smaller living quarters and retirement locations spread out over time? More patient sellers less panic selling? Risk: Will young adults want to locate here?

33 Conclusions A housing correction is happening nationwide, damping economic growth. House prices are inherently hard to predict. A best guess is flattening prices, although some markets will likely see a drop. New England is not especially out of line. New England s differences from the nation: Construction is not a big driver of the regional economy. Slow population growth limits demand and poses some risks ahead. Keep your eyes on the rest of the economy!
