WILL 2012 BRING A TURN AROUND?
CBS Money Watch article by Ilyse Glick looks at possible changes in the 2012 housing market. It looks like we are positioned for change in the New Year. In the article Glick shares:
1. Unemployment rate has dropped.
2. Homeowners are more confident the value of their homes will rise.
3. Interest rates under 4% for a 30-yr. fixed and 15 yr. fixed can be found for 3-3.25%.
4. There is improvement in the percentage of homeowners 60-days late on their mortgage payment. By the 2nd quarter of 2012 the delinquency rate is expected to fall to 5%. Read the complete article for more details.
