Mortgage Rates Fall

Mortgage Rates Fall

Mortgage Rates Fall

Mortgage Rates Fall

Mortgage rates posted more drops this week, lowering the borrowing costs of potential home shoppers and refinancers. Rates are now at a nine-month low, which helped boost mortgage applications more than 20 percent this week.

“Lower mortgage rates combined with continued income growth and lower energy prices are all positive indicators for consumers that should lead to a firming of home sales,” says Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s chief economist.

Freddie Mac reports the following national averages with mortgage rates for the week ending Jan. 10:

  • 30-year fixed-rate mortgages: averaged 4.45 percent, with an average 0.5 point, falling from last week’s 4.51 percent average. Last year at this time, 30-year rates averaged 3.99 percent.
  • 15-year fixed-rate mortgages: averaged 3.89 percent, with an average 0.4 point, dropping from last week’s 3.99 percent average. A year ago, 15-year rates averaged 3.44 percent.
  • 5-year hybrid adjustable-rate mortgages: averaged 3.83 percent, with an average 0.3 point, dropping from last week’s 3.98 percent average. A year ago, 5-year ARMs averaged 3.46 percent.

Home Owners worst Home Remodeling Projects

Home Owners worst Home Remodeling Projects

Home Owners worst Home Remodeling Projects

Home Owners worst Home Remodeling Projects

Home remodeling isn’t as easy as it looks on TV. And for nearly two-thirds of homeowners who’ve attempted a do-it-yourself house project, they say they regret not calling in an expert on at least one of their projects, according to a new survey from ImproveNet of about 2,000 Americans.

But the motivation to save some money is a big driver for their attempts. On average, homeowners said they hoped to save at least 60 percent in costs by bypassing a professional and trying to do it themselves, the survey shows. A separate study by the National Association of REALTORS® shows a bigger attraction to DIY home projects, particularly among younger generations.

On average, homeowners surveyed by ImproveNet reported attempting eight house projects themselves. But about a third admit to having later to hire a professional to redo the job.

“We’ve seen people take on a lot more than they could deal with,” Joanne Theunissen, the remodeling chair of the National Association of Home Builders, told realtor.com®. “Be cautious. If it looks easy on TV, understand it’s not.”

The project that homeowners say they regret the most attempting themselves is installing floor tiles, particularly in the master bath, according to the survey. Getting ceramic tile level and grouted correctly can be very tricky and require many thorough steps, Theunissen says.

Fifty-five percent of DIYers say their projects took longer to complete than they expected, and more than half said their project was physically more difficult than they anticipated as well. Fifty-five percent of respondents also said their finished project didn’t look as good as they had hoped. About 8 percent of respondents said their homes were damaged because of their DIY attempts.

The top 10 most regretted DIY home improvement projects, according to ImproveNet, are:

  1. Installing floor tiles
  2. Replacing a ceiling
  3. Refinishing hardwood floors
  4. Installing carpets
  5. Finishing the basement
  6. Installing hardwood floors
  7. Refinishing cabinetry
  8. Installing sprinklers
  9. Installing showers and baths
  10. Painting home interiors

Home Repairs That Can Save a Sale

Home Repairs That Can Save a Sale

Home Repairs That Can Save a Sale

Home Repairs That Can Save a Sale

Sellers whose homes aren’t in tip-top shape may need to spend extra money or put in a little elbow grease to get their properties in market-ready condition. But what are the most important repair or maintenance tasks that support a higher asking price? “Smaller and less expensive updates in combination with good staging will have a great return,” Susanna Haynie, GRI, a sales associate with Colorado Real Estate Group in Colorado Springs, told HouseLogic. The National Association of REALTORS®’ consumer-facing news service highlighted some of the most important items to address before putting a home up for sale.

1. Fix flooring flaws. “Scratched-up wood flooring, ratty, outdated carpeting, and tired linoleum make your home feel sad,” the HouseLogic article notes. “Buyers might take one step inside and scratch the property from their list.” Most buyers don’t want the hassle of replacing carpet and may not accept a credit to cover the cost after the sale, Haynie says. When refinishing hardwood floors, for example, homeowners can expect to spend an average of $3,000 but recoup 100 percent of that cost at resale, according to NAR’s 2017 Remodeling Impact Report.

2. Repair water stains. The home’s plumbing issues may have long been resolved, but leftover water stains will mislead buyers into thinking the problems still exist. First, double-check that the problem truly is fixed, and then make any needed repairs to the walls or floors. Water-stained ceilings can cost about $670, on average, to fix. Drywall costs about $1.50 per square foot to repair.

3. Touch up the grout. Yellow or cracked grout can be a turnoff to buyers. New grout can make old floors look revived. “The best return-on-investment projects before selling a home involve making a home look like new,” Shelton Wilder, a sales associate at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices in Los Angeles, told HouseLogic. Bathroom re-grouting costs an average of $1 to $2 per square foot, increasing to $10 for more complex jobs.

Home Owners and DIY Projects

Many homeowners are attracted to do-it-yourself home projects, particularly members of younger generations, according to the National Association of REALTORS®’ “2019 Remodeling Impact Report: DIY.” In fact, homeowners may even be happier when they DIY than when they hire a professional to handle a project.

Homeowners reported a “joy score” of 9.9 for projects they do themselves (joy scores range from 1 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater joy). Projects completed by professionals rate slightly below, with a 9.6 joy score. Homeowners who take on projects themselves report a greater sense of accomplishment with a finished project, too.

The top reason homeowners who participated in the survey cited for undertaking a DIY project is increasing the functionality and livability of the home. That’s followed by increasing the home’s aesthetics or adding durable, long-lasting materials and appliances, the survey found.

“One of the pleasures of home ownership is the ability to take on projects to customize a house that truly make it your own,” says John Smaby, NAR’s president.

Nearly three-fourths of Generation Y and millennials, as well as more than half of Generation X and baby boomers, choose to do DIY home projects.

Consumers are more likely to take on a DIY project for a pet than to undertake a general home project on their own, according to the survey. The most popular pet-driven renovations were fence and laminate floor installation, and the addition of dog doors.

How to prepare your house to sell

How to prepare your house to sell

Tips for preparing your house to sell:

 

1 – De-clutter: donate it, dump it or store it.

2 – De-personalize: Remove family photos, personal memorabilia, keepsakes, etc.

3 – Remove furniture: Create the feeling of space, especially if square footage is limited.

4 – Clean your house: A clean home tells the buyers that it is well maintained.

5- Paint the walls:  Keep the walls neutral to appeal to more buyers

6 – Bring in the light: take down heavy window treatments, clean the windows, bring in lamps. Buyers like bright homes.

7- Do the minor repairs when you prepare your house to sell: Replace light bulbs, fix leaky faucets, make sure closet doors are on track

8 – Add curb appeal: Clean your yard, trim the shrubs, and add a nice doormat to welcome visitors.

9 – Update the kitchen: buyers place a huge value on updated kitchens.  This is where you should make a big improvement as you prepare your house to sell.
