Institutional Prices
on the Rise
Transaction prices of commercial properties sold
by large institutional investors rose by 4.4
percent in 3Q09, according to the MIT
Transaction-Based Index, bringing them to 36.5
percent below their mid-2007 peak, according to
the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts. Given that and a narrowing of
the gap between buyer and seller asking prices,
REITs soon may start dipping into their amassed
capital to purchase distressed assets. By the
end of August 2009, REITs had raised an
aggregate $24.2 billion in new capital, 34
percent more than raised in all of 2008,
according to Jones Lang LaSalle.

Underwater Mortgages on the Rise
More Americans
and Utahns are finding they owe more on their
mortgages than what their homes are worth,
according to a new report by First American
CoreLogic.
In Utah, 21.1 percent of all residential
mortgages are now considered in a negative
equity position compared to 24 percent of all
U.S. residential properties.
Negative equity continues to be concentrated in
five states: Nevada (70 percent); Arizona (51
percent); Florida (48 percent); Michigan (39
percent) and California (35 percent).
The rise in negative equity is closely tied to
increases in pre-foreclosure activity, the
report noted. "Once negative equity exceeds 25
percent, or the mortgage balance is $70,000
higher than the current property values, owners
begin to default with the same propensity as
investors."
In this kind of environment, it is important
that REALTORS price listings right. According to
a report commissioned by the Salt Lake Board,
home prices in Salt Lake County will continue to
fall another 3 to 5 percent this year.
