WHERE ARE THE BUYERS? WHY ARE THEY NOT BUYING?

With the FED’s announcement of a massive new program to buy mortgage-backed securities rates have made a historical drop.  This perfect storm of pricing, supply, and mortgage rates is not likely to been seen again in our lifetime. 

Ask your potential buyers do you want to be in the first wave and get the Best deals or in the second wave and get the ok deals?  To use a basketball phrase now is the time to “cherry pick”.

One final thought to remember – Nobody ever times the top or the bottom – Has the real estate market hit bottom? No one knows… However, it is HIGHLY unlikely we will see another 20 or 30% pull back in pricing…

NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY REAL ESTATE… Real Estate is cyclical and the greatest long term investment on earth.

With billions of dollars flowing into various industries and no apparent results or an end in sight, what is the answer?  By now, everyone is aware the root cause of the economic downturn is real estate and real estate mortgages.  

The solution is simple.  The first part everyone will like.  The second part will not be so popular, but is an evil we will have to live with.

First, we are all aware that outside of diminishing consumer confidence largely perpetuated by the media; the biggest trouble in the housing industry is SUPPLY.  There are simply too many homes for sale!  How do we cure this problem?  We need demand and urgency… 

If Congress would enact a law making every real estate purchase completed prior to December 31, 2009, exempt from Capital Gains, investors would flee the instability of the stock market and flood into the real estate market.

The demand comes from the investors leaving the stock market and others looking to capitalize on the exemption…they have to have somewhere to put their money. 

The urgency comes from this being a ONE YEAR exemption.  Any home bought in the 2009 tax year will not be subject to Capital Gains Taxes when sold – EVER.  With people flooding back into the market not only will inventory/supply dwindle, prices will stabilize, homeowners will regain equity lost, and much more.  With regained equity and stability, consumer confidence will be improved and people will start spending money again…and in turn jobs will be created.

The Second part needs a little preamble – A lot of you are going to say this is not “FAIR.”  I will retort with my standard answer to this childish word – “NOTHING IN LIFE IS FAIR.”  Fair is a word that should only be used by children because the concept or at least the execution of fairness does not exist in the real world.

On to the second part of the solution – Mortgage resets, troubled mortgages, and mortgages in some stage of foreclosure.  

These properties are FLOODING the Real Estate market with “For Sale” homes that should not or do not need to be “on the market.”

Congress needs to pass a law resetting every home mortgage for owners that are more than 30 days behind.  This means that the deficiency (delinquent payments) would be added to the back end of the mortgage allowing homeowners to get caught up.

Congress also needs to pass a law resetting every Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) to a flat fixed rate in the range of 5.5% to 6.0% and extend out the mortgage term of the loan. This will help the homeowners who qualified at teaser rates, but now cannot afford payments that have increased more than 50%.  To stabilize the market, we need these people to stay in their homes and keep them off the market.  Is this going to save everyone?  Of course not!  Some people can’t be saved and this is just another fact that proves nothing in life is fair.

I know your thoughts - What about me? I have been working my tail off to pay my mortgage on time. Why should they get a break and not me?  Well, you are getting a break…just not one that is immediately visible.  What good is it if you are paying your mortgage and four of the homes in your neighborhood go into foreclosure and sell at auction for FRACTIONS of their value?  If you bought your home for $300,000 and 4 similar homes in your neighborhood sell for $200,000 – your home is not worth the $300,000 that you paid.  It is now likely worth $200,000.  So, with the loss of property value, your bank may freeze or cancel any equity lines that you have tied to your property.  Are you seeing any benefit yet?

Are these two suggestions some magical cure for the economy?  No they are not.  However, these changes could be a strong foundation to stimulate economic recovery.

A bigger passenger terminal at Myrtle Beach International Airport was cleared for takeoff Tuesday after Horry County Council voted in favor of a $130 million project that would expand the terminal from seven to 12 gates.

“If I had some fireworks, I’d be lighting them right now,” said County Council Chairwoman Liz Gilland after the council voted 10-1 in favor of the third and final reading of the airport project.

One of 3 possible expansions

Myrtle Beach International Airport
The Myrtle Beach International Airport is a full-service facility that serves as the gateway to the Grand Strand. The Myrtle Beach International Airport is owned by the County of Horry and operated by the Department of Airports.  The airport, as directed by County Council, is developing a program to increase passenger terminal capacity on the east side of the airport.

Terminal Capacity Enhancement Program (TCEP) Goals
• to produce an enhanced commercial aviation facility, based on stakeholder input, in a timely and fiscally responsible manner.
• To adequately provide for both Myrtle Beach residents’ air travel needs and the “product” sales role for tourism that supports and strengthens the local economy.

In 1992, Robert Trent Jones oversaw an extensive renovation of the golf course. The course greens were replaced with Penn Links bentgrass greens for smoother playablility. The contours of six holes were modified to make the course more player friendly. The most extensive renovations were the relocation of the 11th green and building a new tee box for hole #8.

In April 2000, the Dunes Golf and Beach Club began a $6 million project to renovate the clubhouse, the driving range and the golf course to accommodate its growing membership. The project was completed in Spring 2001. The renovations to the clubhouse included the addition of the turn restaurant (Waterloo), new guest men’s and ladies locker rooms, larger private locker rooms and private lounges and larger banquet facilities. The décor of the clubhouse changed from a casual beach club style to a more traditional country club atmosphere with elegant mahogany furnishings and richer color schemes.
