The average time that a home sits on the market when it is for sale is now 11 months.
So what does that mean to you and me? It means nothing. Despite what is said by the professionals, we are still facing the largest portfolio of mortgage resets from right now in May 2008 to September 2008 (Mortgage reset chart).
So what does this really mean? Now we are on to something. Until the underlining mortgage issues are resolved, meaning the homeowners with mortgage resets that become unaffordable, of which only 30% of the affected homeowners are being helped, expect further home depreciation.
CNN.com has stated within the last few weeks that even with all the programs developed by the government, only about 30% of the homeowners can be helped. The reason is obvious. Why does any, for profit banking institution, want to take on the problems of another bank?
And the math is so simple. Add the inflationary pressures of oil, energy and what they mean to consumers discretionary dollars, as well as, the volume of adjustable rate mortgages that are resetting (remember that it takes between 6 months and 12 months to foreclose on a home - every state has their foreclosure laws) and you have a formula saying that we will be having credit and housing deterioration until at least 2010.
