Home Sellers See Biggest Profits In A Decade – Not Just Because Of Higher Prices

- 08/04/17

The average tenure of a homeowner who sold in the second quarter of this year came in at just over eight years.

That's the longest since the year 2000 when Attom Data Solutions began tracking the metric.

During the last housing boom, in the mid-2000s, the average homeownership tenure was around four years.

In this hot housing market, home sellers are racking up bigger profits on their homes than they have in a decade. Fast-rising home prices, coupled with homeowners staying put longer than usual are driving the trend.

The average tenure of a homeowner who sold in the second quarter of this year came in at just over eight years, the longest since the year 2000, when ATTOM Data Solutions began tracking the metric. During the last housing boom, in the mid-2000s, the average homeownership tenure was around four years.

Home values recently hit a record high, according to various surveys, and they continue to climb, as demand easily outpaces the supply of homes for sale. Add price gains to increased tenure, and home sellers are now seeing the greatest returns in 10 years. For those who sold in the second quarter of this year, they saw an average profit of $51,000, a 26 percent return.

Regionally, sellers saw the biggest profits in San Jose, California, with 75 percent; San Francisco with 65 percent; Seattle with 63 percent; Modesto, California, with 62 percent; and Denver with 62 percent.

It begs the question, if profits are high and homeowners have been stagnant, why don't more people decide to move?

"While it's the most profitable time to sell in a decade, it's also extremely difficult to find another home to purchase, which is helping to keep homeowners in their homes longer before selling," said Daren Blomquist, senior vice president at Attom Data Solutions. "And the market is becoming even more competitive, with the share of cash buyers in the second quarter increasing annually for the first time in four years."

Cash sales accounted for close to 29 percent of all single-family and condo sales in the second quarter, up from 27 percent during the same period in 2016.

As with everything in real estate, local market dynamics affect that share. Among major metropolitan areas with a population of at least 1 million, those with the highest share of all-cash sales were Raleigh, North Carolina, at 57.4 percent; Miami with 46.2 percent; Detroit at 45.2 percent; Oklahoma City at 44.6 percent; and Tampa-St. Petersburg, Florida, at 43.2 percent.

OSCG Partners With Developer On $80 Million Apartment And Housing Development Project

- 12/30/16

ONE SOURCE CAPITAL GROUP has partnered with a California and Texas-based development company Hollyhills Development and the two companies have closed on an 18-acre parcel to develop a 99-unit luxury apartment home complex along with a 14.4 acre parcel for 74 single-family turn-key homes.

The properties purchased for the future apartment and home developments are located next to 1.2 million square feet of new shopping and restaurant space currently leased at 98% occupancy in a California town known as Hanford.

Daniel Bailey, President of Hollyhills Development, states that, "The market in Hanford is as stable as ever, the recent growth has created a rather large number of new jobs and local opportunities. Presently in the Hanford area, there is a housing and apartment shortage and because of this, many employees in the Hanford community are commuting from Fresno daily where they currently reside. In Hanford, new homes sell the minute they go up for sale and the apartment complexes, even the old and very out-of-date ones, typically have large waiting lists."

Mr. Bailey also makes it clear that this would not be the only project in the Hanford area for his Hollyhills Development group as he truly believes in the community along with the market within the general area and expects his team to look for additional locations for other future development opportunities in the Hanford community.

Mr. Taber, CEO of ONE SOURCE CAPITAL GROUP, mentions that," His partners/private loan committee team, all strongly agree that the Hanford community is a solid investment based on the economic growth within that community along with the growth of surrounding communities due to the level of government services and government contracts that have recently been added to the Lemoore Air Base and its subsidiaries.

These recent government additions along with the ancillary jobs and other service needs that have been created through these new government additions will strongly influence a solid market in Hanford for many years to come. Also today's lending guidelines are very flexible regarding the loan programs which most home buyers in Hanford are taking advantage of. The ease of the loan process today along with where the rates presently stand make home ownership very obtainable in Hanford."

Mr. Taber adds, "ONE SOURCE CAPITAL GROUP will continue its focus on making competitive and sensible loans customized to each of its clients as financing residential, construction and commercial loans is what we do and do quite well. However, we are in the arena of real estate, and if ONE SOURCE CAPITAL GROUP has the opportunity to partner in additional real estate development opportunities with other development groups, those future opportunities would be of interest to us and discussed seriously with the loan committee."
