MARKET AREA UPDATE Report as of: 1Q 2Q 3Q 4Q Year: 2013 Market Area (City, State): Arlington, Virginia Provided by (Company / Companies): McEnearney Associates, Inc. Realtors What are the most significant trends in your current real estate market? (Attach addenda, charts, graphs, etc. as appropriate) The largest factor in the Northern Virginia real estate market over the last 18 months is the paltry number of listings available to buyers. These limited choices resulted in an upward trend in pricing, thus tempting more sellers to enter the market. Between April and August, 15% more listings came on the market than during the same time period last year throughout Northern Virginia. It's really Economics 101. On the supply side, we have seen this modest increase in inventory. On the demand side, we've seen an increase in mortgage interest rates - up a full point since April. That represents a loss of more than 13% in buying power and that, coupled with the lingering impact of sequestration, is serving to keep the number of buyers in the market a bit less than it was earlier in the year. This will ease - but not reverse - the significant upward pressure on home prices we have seen this year.

tyui7 Northern Virginia StatPak October 2013 Market in a Minute A Summary of Market Conditions for September 2013 CONTRACTS: Contract activity in September 2013 was up just 1.0% from September of last year, and was down for homes priced less than $500,000. Through the first nine months of 2013, total activity is up 5.0%. Of those properties going under contract in September, 66% were on the market for 30 days or less. For some perspective, 79% of homes going under contract at the peak of the market in September 2004 were on the market for 30 days or less; in 2008, it was just 35%. INVENTORY: The number of homes on the market at the end of September was up 5.7% from the end of September 2012. For the sixth month in a row, more new listings came on the market than the same month the previous year an increase of 15.8%. The modest increase in contract activity and the rise in month-end inventory increased overall supply to 2.4 months, up slightly from 2.3 months last September. INTEREST RATES: Mortgage interest rates continue to float in the mid-4% range, ending September at 4.32%. That s almost a full point higher than the 3.4% figure end of September 2012, but is 19 basis points lower than a month ago at the end of August. As we have noted here in recent months, rates are still very low when viewed from any historical perspective, but the recent increases will cause borrowers to take a fresh look at adjustable-rate programs. AFFORDABILITY: The payment on a no-money-down, 30-year fixed mortgage for a median-priced home is 18.7% lower today than it was in September 2005. But for the fifth month in a row, the mortgage payment for a median priced home in September ($2,317) was more than the median rented price ($2,000). Homeownership is still more affordable than this time last year, but the combination of higher prices and higher interest rates are gradually making house payments climb. DIRECTION OF THE MARKET: As we have noted here over the past few months, the market is adjusting from a very hot spring to a slightly more balanced one now. Overall supply has risen a bit to 2.4 months, largely due to the number of new listings coming on the market as rising prices have coaxed more homeowners into putting their homes up for sale. We continue to expect inventory to rise through the rest of the year. Rising interest rates are putting a bit of a damper on demand, but overall home prices continue to rise modestly as well. The prospect of rising prices will continue to motivate purchasers, however, and if historic norms hold true there will be more new contract activity in October than we saw in September. The overall fundamentals remain strong, and we remain convinced that we headed toward a balanced and sustainable market.

One-year adjustable rate mortgages were 2.63% at the end of Sept. 2013 vs. 2.60% at the end of September 2012. Those extraordinarily low ARMs will entice some borrowers as 30-year rates climb, but we believe it far more likely that cautious buyers will look at 5- and 7- year ARMs more than 1-year.

Absorption Rate by Property Type The following tables track absorption rate by property type, comparing the rates in the just-completed month to the rates in the same month of the previous year. The absorption rate is a measure of the health of the market, and tracks the percentage of homes that were on the market during the given month and in the given price range that went under contract. [The formula is # /(# + # Available).] An example: The absorption rate for detached homes priced $500,000-$749,999 in September 2013 was 31.5%. That compares to a rate of 28.9% in September 2012, and the increase means the market was better in 2013 for that type of home. If the absorption rate was less in 2013 than in 2012, we have put the more recent absorption rate in red. This month there was improvement for 9 of 18 price categories, and 2 remained the same.
