Mortgage NEWS

The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reports that the decline in the sales rate has led to a growing inventory of unsold existing homes, reaching 3.92 million units in August—the highest supply since April 1993. This trend extends to new home sales as well. Reflecting rising builder concerns about the market for new single-family homes, the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI) marked its eighth consecutive monthly decline, reaching the lowest level since February 1991. The HMI relies on a monthly survey of home builders conducted by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) for over 16 years.

Despite many builders offering substantial incentives to boost sales, potential buyers are adopting a wait-and-see approach due to market uncertainties, says NAHB Chief Economist David Seiders. Thirty-year fixed-rate mortgages (FRMs) have fallen to their lowest levels since early March, with the benchmark loan experiencing an eleven-basis-point drop to 6.39% in the nation’s primary mortgage price survey. At 6.10%, five-one Hybrid ARMs (adjustable-rate mortgages) are becoming increasingly viable options for both purchases and refinances.

While mortgage interest rates are decreasing, home sales in San Diego, Orange County, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and overall California are on the decline, presenting potential opportunities for homebuyers. This trend opens the door to improved Southern California home financing options. Despite this, the median home prices in California still surpass the 2024 conforming loan limits of $725,000, requiring homebuyers to secure jumbo home loans.

Given California’s housing prices, the 80-20 home mortgage, a no-money-down home loan, has gained popularity. This option allows buyers without sufficient cash reserves for a 20% down payment to purchase a house while avoiding costly private mortgage insurance (PMI). Available as both conforming and jumbo mortgage loans, the 80-20 mortgage loans offer various terms, including fixed interest rate, adjustable rate, interest-only, and option ARM, enhancing purchasing power and making homeownership in California more affordable.
