As part of a settlement with state attorneys general, the five largest mortgage servicers are adopting new requirements for short sales, which is expected to speed-up what has been known as a lengthy process.

Here are some of the new requirements for servicers under the settlement:

  • Servicers must provide borrowers with a decision within 30 days after receiving a short sale package request.
  • Servicers will be required to notify a borrower, also within 30 days, if any necessary documents are missing to process the short sale request.
  • Servicers must notify a borrower immediately if a deficiency payment is needed to approve the short sale. They also must provide an estimated amount for the deficiency payment needed for the short sale.
  • Servicers are also required to form an internal group to review all short sale requests.
  • Banks will be considered in violation of the settlement requirements if they take longer than 30 days on more than 10 percent of the short sale requests. Violations can carry fines of up to $1 million and $5 million for repeat offenses.

"If a real estate broker can get a checklist from the bank detailing what documentation is needed, everything can be provided up front, and the bank will be required to give a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down within 30 days,” short sale specialist Chris Hanson with the Hanson Law Firm told HousingWire. “That's not a bad deal.”

Condominium sales surged during October, yet despite the most favorable home buying conditions in decades, sales of existing single-family homes throughout the San Fernando Valley came in below year-ago levels, the Southland Regional Association of Realtors reported Wednesday, Nov. 23.

A total of 523 single-family homes closed escrow last month, down 1.5 percent from a year ago. It was the lowest October tally since 2007 and nearly equal to the 524 monthly sales average seen in this year where only one month came in above the 600 benchmark. Nonetheless, sales were up 61.9 percent from the record low for this cycle, set in January 2008.

Meanwhile, buyers grabbed remarkable opportunities in the condominium segment of the market with 217 condos closing escrow. Condo sales increased 29.2 percent from a year ago and rose 10.2 percent higher than this September. Condo sales are up 106.7 from the record low, also set in January 2008.

“Buyers or interested and getting more active as they realize the magnitude of today’s opportunities to own a home or condominium,” said Fred Sabine, president of the Southland Regional Association of Realtors.

“Interest rates are at the lowest level in decades, resale prices are stunningly low, and there’s a general recognition that despite ongoing economic uncertainty real estate today offers better opportunities than any other asset class,” Sabine said.

Jim Link, the Association’s chief executive officer, agreed: “Consumer confidence hinges on what is happening in the overall economy and what politicians are doing to resolve difficult issues.

“Until government does something definitively to help housing,” Link said, “the market will improve only slowly, and people will sit on the sidelines, which is too bad because some will miss the best opportunity to buy home in a generation.”

The median price of homes sold last month was $350,000, down 9.1 percent from a year ago. While up 3.0 percent from the record low for this cycle set in January 2009, it matches the January median as the lowest price this year and is in a price range not seen since 2003.

Pushed by eager first-time buyers and investors, the condominium median price of $225,000 was up 2.3 percent from a year ago and 21.6 percent better than the record low for this cycle.

Link and Sabine noted that returning the cap on the conforming loan limit to $729,750, which passed Congress and is likely to be signed by President Obama, is welcome news for the local market, even though current activity is focused on lower-priced homes. The increase applies to FHA-insured loans only — Fannie and Freddie were excluded — and will remain in place until Dec. 31, 2013.

There were 2,942 active listings throughout the San Fernando Valley at the end of October, down 21.1 percent from a year ago. At the current pace of sales, the inventory represents a 4.0-month supply, down from the 5.3-month inventory of October 2010 and just under the 5- to 6-month supply that represents a balanced a market.

The Southland Regional Association of Realtors® is a local trade association with more than 10,000 members serving the San Fernando and Santa Clarita Valleys. SRAR is one of the largest local associations in the nation.


 

Elite Cyclists, Novice Riders, Walkers and Families Invited
to Enjoy Festivities


 

If you are looking a truly memorable experience this New Year’s Eve, make plans to join world-renowned cyclist George Hincapie and other cycling enthusiasts for one of several events hosted as part of “A Ride for Life,” benefitting Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and the Boys & Girls Club of Santa Clarita.

Supported by the City of Santa Clarita and produced by Icon Event Management,  Ride for Life will kick off at Central Park.  Event opportunities include a 30 Mile Ride, 60 Mile Ride, 100 Mile Ride, a Kids 5K Ride, and a Family 5K Walk. Park activities also include a large expo and post-ride feast.  The event offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to ride with Hincapie, who is a five-time Olympian
and 16-time Tour de France veteran.  In fact, he is the only teammate to have played a pivotal role in all seven Lance Armstrong victories and he and Lance are the only riders in the history of the sport to win the Tour de France seven times.  

The City of Santa Clarita proudly supports cycling and has played host to the Amgen Tour of California four years since the event began.  A Ride for Life provides a great opportunity for local and regional cyclists to enjoy the area’s abundant trails and terrain while riding with one of the world’s best cyclists. 

“A Ride for Life is an exciting chance for cyclists of all levels to ride
with Mr. Hincapie - one of the world’s best cyclists.  We take great pride in offering our community unique events and believe there’s no better way to start the New Year than with a healthy, community driven event like A Ride for Life,” said Mayor Marsha McLean.

Residents have ample time to sign up for A Ride for Life events, which were designed with the novice and CAT 1 cyclist in mind.  Event opportunities
include
:
• 30-Mile Ride, $65/per person
• 60-Mile Ride, $95/per
person
• 100-Mile Ride, $125/per person
• 5K Kids Bike & Family 5K
Walk for all ages, $15/per person (includes T-Shirt and finishers medal)

The 30, 60, and 90 mile rides are timed and provide an iconic day of riding and an opportunity to meet George Hincapie.  Rider support for these three rides includes aid stations every 25 miles, medical support on the ride course, sag wagons and technical support all day.  Registration fees for all three events includes: a commemorative T-shirt, swag bags from sponsors, and access to a large expo and food and beer garden. 

Those interested in participating in "A Ride for Life" must register online at arideforlife.com.  Maps, guided video tours of the race routes, and information about relay and VIP packages are
also available online.  A percentage of the net proceeds from the event will be donated to Children's Hospital Los Angeles and Boys and Girls Club of Santa Clarita Valley.
