Guest:Keith Taylor, the founder of strengthafterstroke.comIn this podcast Chris interviews Keith Taylor. Keith was a thriving businessman and then had a huge curveball thrown his way as he had a stroke. Keith was struggling during that time with his cause and purpose because the aftereffects of the stroke upended his life and his career. Now several years later Keith has turned that challenge into a new purpose helping people who have had strokes recover via his unique BASE program and via Keith's coaching. Chris invited Keith because as hospice and palliative care professionals we often don't get to hear the voice of the patient, their story, and their perspective. Keith's story is an inspiring one and also an informative one to many of us who dedicate so much of our time and talent to caring for others. Give this a listen as it will be informative and also inspirational. Join us. BASE = Belief Attitude Strength Energy Wisdom Quote:Too many hospices take for granted and assume that they are providing excellent care. However, the quality, constancy, and perceived value is completely determined by the individuals performing the visits. Most patients will not complain even if they have had a less than ideal experience. – Andrew Reedwww.strengthafterstroke.comLinks to references:https://www.facebook.com/strengthafterstroke/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9s3-mzBOgZ-sxHio442ksghttps://www.instagram.com/strengthafterstroke/https://www.linkedin.com/in/strengthafterstroke/

What?! David Ossman again? No, you're not insane. Welcome to Side 6 as Michael meets up one more time, here at Bob's Berserko Lounge, with Firesign Theater's David Ossman to talk about the life, times, and comedy of Peter Bergman.In this episode, Michael talks again with Firesign Theater's David Ossman at the old Same place to talk about the life, times, and comedy of Peter Bergman.David Ossman is an American writer and performer, best known as a quarter of The Firesign Theatre, whose collective work includes comedy albums, plays, films, and radio shows. He's best known for his role as George Leroy (“Porgie”) Tirebiter in Firesign's LP “Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers,” a hero of two mystery novels and hours of broadcasts. His Catherwood the Butler delivers the classic line, “What's all this Brouhaha?” to Nick Danger. Ossman's “solo” album, “How Time Flys” was nominated for a Nebula, and his 50th Anniversary version of “The War of The Worlds," produced by his wife, Judith Walcutt, was nominated for a Grammy. He can be seen (as Cornelius, the ant) in Pixar's “A Bug's Life."During the 1980s, Ossman returned to his “original” profession as a radio host, writer, and teacher, with historic broadcasts for NPR and WGBH, along with equally historic all-star-cast radio events like “Empire of the Air," “We Hold These Truths,” and “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," independently created for Walcutt's Otherworld Media non-profit studio.

Today we are speaking with Confidence & Mental Performance Coach, Shay Haddow. Shay Haddow is an expert coach and speaker on confidence and mindset for female athletes. Having worked with hundreds of female athletes, parents, and coaches from across the country, she's empowering girl athletes to build unshakable confidence so they can live and play to their fullest potential. After overcoming her own struggles with confidence throughout her childhood and athletic career, Shay knew that it was her life's purpose to provide female athletes with the mentorship that she wished she had when she was younger. Shay has dedicated her life to empowering female athletes of all ages to uncover their greatest superpower of all, allowing them to break free from their limitations and live a confident, empowered life. In this episode we discuss: 1) Steps to improve our confidence, by being aware of the way we talk to ourselves, changing the words and replacing the negative words with more empowering words, and taking messy action to see results and learn as we grow. This allows us to improve our confidence. 2) The importance of supporting, listening and encouraging our young athletes and parents at this time especially during the pandemic. Their voices need to be heard and valued as their typical outlets such as sports are not as easily accessible for them. 3) The more we can pour into our youth to help them build their confidence, which also includes letting them fail, the more we can potentially build confident leaders for the future. 4) We can all move from reluctant to resilient in our lives and continue to pay it forward and impact others to show them what is possible.

See The Upside - Uplifting conversations about real life after divorce
Did you know all the ways that Yoga can change your life? I discovered yoga around the time of my divorce. Charles was not just my yoga instructor at the time, but he was also my coach, lightworker, healer and inspiration. His weekly classes lifted me from my fog and made me believe that I could make it through not only my divorce, but through anything. Being an Entrepreneur at heart, Charles has since launched a corporate wellness program called Champions Yoga. It embodies everything I loved about his yoga classes - great music, encouragement, positivity, fun, enthusiasm and accountability; but also provides health and wellness benefits for corporate clients all over the globe.Champions is the term he uses for his students in his yoga classes. It perfectly describes his belief in our abilities and his push for integrity, expansion, purpose and our best in every class and in each of our lives. In the interview we talk about his new corporate wellness program, how he got so disciplined and motivated, what inspires Charles and how he is inspired by his students. We also discuss:How Yoga can reduce healthcare costs for smart businessesHow yoga improves an employees overall health and well beingThe power of Meditation3 Meditation techniques we loveHow to be present in your partnerships and why it's so importantWhat are ways you can enhance your spiritual relationshipMy meditation ritualsThe challenges of being a type A and ways to manage itHow to do less and BE moreHow the corporate wellness world is changingWhich wellness partners have teamed up with Champions YogaCharles and Champions Yoga has had a huge impact on my life. I can't wait for you to get to know him in the podcast interview and to learn about how his program is changing how companies view wellness and health all over the word. Be sure to check out his website which also include his merchandise and details on the latest upcoming events.

David Ossman is an American writer and performer, best known as a quarter of The Firesign Theatre, whose collective work includes comedy albums, plays, films, and radio shows. He's best known for his role as George Leroy (“Porgie”) Tirebiter in Firesign's LP “Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers,” a hero of two mystery novels and hours of broadcasts. His Catherwood the Butler delivers the classic line, “What's all this Brouhaha?” to Nick Danger. Ossman's “solo” album, “How Time Flys” was nominated for a Nebula, and his 50th Anniversary version of “The War of The Worlds," produced by his wife, Judith Walcutt, was nominated for a Grammy. He can be seen (as Cornelius, the ant) in Pixar's “A Bug's Life."During the 1980s, Ossman returned to his “original” profession as a radio host, writer, and teacher, with historic broadcasts for NPR and WGBH, along with equally historic all-star-cast radio events like “Empire of the Air," “We Hold These Truths,” and “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," independently created for Walcutt's Otherworld Media non-profit studio. Returning to Firesign for their 25th Anniversary Tour and subsequent albums and performances, Ossman now edits the group's work, collected by the Library of Congress, for publication.In this episode, Mr. Ossman shares with Michael Liben what it was like working with Philip Austin and how his death has affected him.Links mentioned in this program:David Ossman on Firesign Theater site: http://www.firesigntheatre.com/media/media.php?member=OssmanInteresting Firesign Theater stuff that will change your life: http://firesigntheater.comLinks to “Bereaved But Still Me” Social Media and Podcast Pages:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bereaved-but-still-me/id1333229173Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/show/heart-to-heart-with-michael Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HugPodcastNetwork YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGPKwIU5M_YOxvtWepFR5Zw Website: https://www.hug-podcastnetwork.com/If you enjoy this program and would like to be a Patron, please check out our Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/HeartToHeart

In this Real Estate News Brief for the week ending May 22nd, 2021... the government’s rental assistance program is helping landlords, rent growth speeds up, and the housing boom is adding value to opportunity zones.Economic NewsWe begin with economic news from this past week, and a Treasury Department announcement that it has distributed $6 billion in rental assistance in the last two weeks. And more money is on the way. (1) A total of $21.6 billion was allocated to the program as part of a stimulus package approved in March. Another $25 billion had been approved in December. The funding is important to help pay off tenant debt to landlords as eviction moratoriums expire.More Americans are heading back to work. The latest unemployment report shows that initial jobless claims were down 34,000 last week, to 444,000. (2) That’s the lowest number we’ve seen in more than a year. More than 16 million people are still getting unemployment checks, but that number is also decreasing.Several states say they plan to stop offering the additional $300 a week in federal benefits, to encourage people to get back to work. That program is supposed to end on September 6th. CNBC reports that a few states are also offering a one-time bonus for people who start working again. Those states include Arizona, Montana, New Hampshire and Oklahoma with bonuses ranging from 500 to $2,000. (3)The latest round of housing data shows another drop for existing home sales. The National Association of Realtors says they fell 2.7% in April to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.85 million homes. (4) It’s the third month in a row that sales fell as the inventory crunch continues. NAR’s chief economist, Lawrence Yun, expects to see more inventory “as further COVID-19 vaccinations are administered and potential home sellers become more comfortable listing and showing their homes.”Residential construction was also down in April. The U.S. Census Bureau reports a 13% decline in month-to-month single-family home starts. Permits were also down by 4%. (5) Economists had expected better numbers. Senior economist, Andrew Grantham, at CIBC Capital Markets told MarketWatch that the decline is probably the result of material shortages such as lumber, and possibly labor as well.That decline didn’t hurt builder confidence. The National Association of Homebuilders reports that the monthly index held steady in May. (6) Although builders face challenges, the NAHB says that builders remain confident about the strength of the housing market.Mortgage RatesMortgage rates returned to that 3% level this last week. Freddie Mac says the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was up 6 basis points to exactly 3%. The 15-year was up 3 basis points to 2.29%. (7)In other news making headlines...Rent Growth Speeds UpRent growth sped up in March to its fastest pace since the beginning of the pandemic. Realtor.com says the median rent in the 50 biggest metros was up 2.7% year-over-year. Before COVID-19, the annual rate was 3.2%. (8)Realtor.com says that two-bedroom units are seeing the most growth. They were up 5.2% annually. The website’s chief economist, Danielle Hale says: “If the trend continues, renters could expect to be paying pre-pandemic rates by as early as this fall.”Tech hubs still have a ways to go because rents were high, and they fell the most as employees worked remotely from less expensive areas. But tech companies are announcing return-to-office plans, so rents in the tech hubs are starting to turn around.Median Home Price Hits New HighRedfin is reporting a new high for the median home price. According to its researchers, the national median home price hit $370,528 in April. That’s a 22% increase from a year earlier. (9)That percentage may be somewhat skewed because people weren’t buying many homes in April of last year, but Redfin’s chief economist, Daryl Fairweather says that the tight inventory will keep those prices climbing. She says it’s going to take years for builders to catch up and the housing boom is far from over. In April, for-sale homes only spent an average of 19 days on the market. Redfin says that 49% of them sold for more than the asking price. Both are new records.California Home PricesThe national home price numbers pale in comparison to California. NAR says the median there has flown past $800,000 for the very first time. (10) The new median home price for California is $813,980.That’s up 7.2% from March and it’s up 34% from the previous year. Again, that year-over-year percentage is probably skewed because of the pandemic lockdown. Prices Rise in Opportunity ZonesThe housing boom is also adding value to opportunity zones. Those are federally designated areas that need the help of investors. In exchange for long-term opportunity zone investment, they will get tax breaks. The program was approved as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.According to ATTOM Data Solutions, two-thirds of those areas have seen home price growth of at least 10% in the first quarter of this year. (11) Prices are still much lower than the rest of the nation. Researchers say that about 43% of the zones have median home prices that are less than $150,000. But the percentage is going down. A year ago it was 50%.You’ll find links to the stories and reports I’ve referenced in this podcast at www.NewsForInvestors.comLinks:1 - https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy01932 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/u-s-unemployment-claims-continue-to-set-pandemic-lows-11621514795?mod=economy-politics3 - https://www.cnbc.com/2021/05/21/states-ending-unemployment-offering-a-return-to-work-bonus-up-to-2000.html4 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/existing-home-sales-fall-for-third-straight-month-as-inventory-constrain-hamper-the-housing-market-116216069285 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/construction-on-new-homes-retreats-as-builders-grapple-with-supply-chain-headaches-11621342845?mod=economic-report6 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/home-builder-confidence-remains-strong-but-buyers-should-expect-rising-prices-11621260739?mod=economic-report7 - http://www.freddiemac.com/pmms/#8 - https://magazine.realtor/daily-news/2021/05/20/rents-post-largest-uptick-since-covid-19-onset9 - https://www.housingwire.com/articles/home-prices-rapidly-climbing-toward-375000/10 - https://www.wealthmanagement.com/sfr/california-home-prices-shoot-past-800000-first-time11 - https://magazine.realtor/daily-news/2021/05/20/prices-surge-in-opportunity-zones12 - https://magazine.realtor/daily-news/2021/05/20/buyers-go-to-crazy-extremes-to-win-a-home

Call it a perfect storm of conditions to keep home prices on a steady upswing as buyers clamor after too few homes. I had the opportunity to talk to HousingWire’s lead analyst Logan Mohtashami about the unusual situation we’re seeing, and whether all those scary headlines about a housing bubble are true.The housing market has been breaking all sorts of records. It’s never been so hot. Asking prices have hit an all-time high. Selling prices have hit an all-time high. The share of homes selling over list price is also breaking records. I noticed a crazy headline the other day. It said: The East Bay real estate market is so hot, houses are selling for more than $1M over asking price.” That’s a jaw dropper for sure!That headline appeared in the SFGate in reference to the San Francisco East Bay. One realtor said in the article that it’s not that surprising when they get an offer like that. Josh Dickinson says: “When my clients see a house for $1.9 million they’re almost conditioned to think it’ll go over $3 million in Piedmont or North Berkeley.”Buyers are so desperate to land a home, many are sweetening the deal with things other than money. According to SFGate, one buyer offered free one-week stays at an Airbnb in Tuscany for the next ten years, but still lost the bidding war. Stock options and airline miles are also popular. That’s undeniable evidence of housing market demand, but it isn’t the whole story, and it doesn’t provide an answer to the housing bubble question. In 2007, housing prices hit bubble territory against a backdrop of poor underwriting and buyers who couldn’t afford their homes. When the Fed raised short-term rates, adjustable rate mortgage payments skyrocketed, home prices sank, and many borrowers defaulted. Logan says it’s a whole different story today and one that is very far from a bubble.He says that today the housing story is all about demographics, low mortgage rates, and low inventory. Despite previous beliefs that millennials would never get married and settle down, they are now trying to do just that. Logan says we’re at the start of a unique period when millennials who are 27 to 33 years old are ready to buy. Since many of them are highly paid employees in the tech industry, higher-priced homes and bidding wars may not be a big problem. And if they want to get away from the high-priced homes, it’s very likely that they can do their work remotely, from a smaller metro where homes are less expensive.Mortgage rates are still very close to an all-time low. They hit rock bottom because of the pandemic, and are still under 3% right now. So even though home prices are advancing skyward, mortgage rates are very attractive. As Logan pointed out, they are lower than they should be. In 2018, they were up near 5%. In 2019, they dropped a bit, but it was COVID-19 that brought them to a record-setting low. Freddie Mac shows the low point in December of last year with the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage at 2.68%.And the inventory problem is only getting worse, making the homes that are available that much more desirable. Logan says from 1985 to 2007, the average number of years was five, before families would move. Now, it’s more like 10 years. So there’s less turnover of homes to replenish the existing home inventory. Covid made that situation even worse, as potential sellers decided to stay put. And many of those who have vacation homes are now living in them instead of renting them out. Plus, builders haven’t been able to make up for the deficit. Logan says the pandemic didn’t create this scenario, but it did contribute to it. He says Covid brought mortgages lower than they would have been and that home prices accelerated beyond the normal trend. And there’s little chance of a foreclosure crisis. That’s another scary headline that is unlikely to happen. Logan says it’s not going to happen because we just don’t have the kind of bad credit that we had before the housing crisis.He says the “housing bubble boys” and the “forbearance crash brothers” are both wrong because right now, housing is the most outperforming sector in the world. To sum it up, Logan describes the current market as a huge millennial buyer group who are well paid and ready to buy their first homes. And they are especially incentivized by the low mortgage rates. Since there is a shortage of homes, this kind of demand will continue to drive prices higher and feed into the kind of bidding wars that can add hundreds of thousands of dollars onto the asking price. But he says, the market is not on the verge of crashing.In a blog that Logan just posted on HousingWire, he says: “The key to the U.S. getting back on track economically is for its citizens to freely walk the earth again without the existential threat of COVID-19.” He expects that to happen before the end of August.If you want to immerse yourself in a very lively conversation about the housing market, check out Logan’s interview on my other podcast, The Real Wealth Show.You’ll find a link on the podcast player page for this episode at NewsForInvestors.comLinks:https://www.sfgate.com/realestate/article/2021-05-east-bay-real-estate-overbids-hot-market-16151227.phphttps://www.realwealthnetwork.com/real-wealth-show-podcast/?wchannelid=nnhnv5t81j&wmediaid=f41ejs3akphttps://www.housingwire.com/articles/weve-got-rising-home-prices-but-no-housing-crash-in-sight/

In this Real Estate News Brief for the week ending May 1st, 2021… the economic recovery boom, home price growth, and what builders are doing about lumber prices.Economic NewsWe begin with economic news from this past week, and the results of a two-day policy meeting by the Federal Reserve. Fed Chief Jerome Powell acknowledged a big improvement to economic conditions, and the Fed no longer feels that COVID-19 presents a “considerable risk” to the economy. But Powell says the central bank is committed to its current stimulus strategy. As you know, short-term interest rates are near zero, and the Fed is buying $120 billion in Treasury and mortgage-backed bonds every month. Economists say the economy is poised for a boom in 2021. In fact, first quarter GDP was 6.4%. Incomes were also up more than 21% last month, and spending was up more than 4%, thanks in part to government stimulus and those $1,400 checks. Many Americans also have more money saved than normal, and are now spending it on things like new cars and trucks, restaurants, travel, and other recreational activities. MarketWatch reports that Americans have almost $2 trillion dollars in savings that they wouldn’t normally have, and are likely ready to spend.But, Powell says: “While the recovery has progressed more quickly than generally expected, it remains uneven and far from complete.” He also expressed some concern about how fast home prices are rising, but said he hoped that builders will respond with more supply, which would slow that price growth.The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller home price index shows the yearly pace of home price appreciation was 11.9% in February. On a month-to-month basis, it was up 1.2%. Prices are up in all parts of the country, but the Rocky Mountain area is seeing the biggest yearly rate of increase at 15.4%.Powell stands firm on his view of inflation, saying that the Fed believes any price pressure will be temporary. He also wants to see it slightly above 2%. The yearly average was up to 2.3% in March, and economists are expecting it to move higher from there.The latest unemployment report shows another drop in the number of people applying for benefits. Those state claims were down 13,000 from the previous week, to 553,000, according to the U.S. Labor Department. The total number of people collecting benefits from eight different state and federal programs is also down by almost a million in one week -- from 17.4 million to 16.5 million.Pending home sales moved higher, although the lack of inventory remains a problem. The National Association of Realtors says pending sales were up 1.9% in March. Compared to March of last year, they were up 23%.Consumers are feeling a lot more confident as the economy recovers and more people are vaccinated against COVID-19. The Conference Board says that consumer confidence hit a 14-month high in April, with an index reading of 121.7. The University of Michigan had a similar report, saying that that index rose to the highest level since the beginning of the pandemic.Mortgage RatesAs for mortgage rates, they didn’t move much this past week. Freddie Mac says the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is still under 3%. It was up just one basis point to 2.98%. The 15-year was up 2 basis points, to 2.31%.In other news making headlines...Lumber Prices Add $36,000 to New HomesLumber prices continue to add tens of thousands of dollars onto the price of a new home. The National Association of Home Builders says that prices have tripled over the past 12 months and are now adding almost $36,000 to the price of an average single-family home. That’s up from $24,000 in February. Prices began rising at the start of the pandemic, when a number of lumber mills shut down. They’ve been slow to reopen as the coronavirus numbers continue to surge in some areas. But there is hope that prices will retreat later this year, as mills reopen and supply ramps up.In the meantime, many developers are adding escalation clauses to their contracts. They specify that if the cost of building materials increase by a certain amount, the buyer would be responsible for paying the additional amount. Sometimes, builders share that increase with the buyers.Builders are also trying to keep costs down by pre-ordering lumber or by getting lumber price guarantees. They may also delay construction if costs get out of control, or do other parts of the project while lumber prices are spiking.Mature Trees Have Become a Hot CommodityThe new focus on home upgrades has increased the demand for what some are calling “trophy trees.” According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, luxury homeowners are requesting big trees as a focal point for their yards. But they aren’t willing to wait for them to grow, which has created a market for the purchase and relocation of these magnificent trees from other people’s yards. A landscaping and tree relocation company in Florida called Green Integrity says business is booming. Owner, Walter Acree, says they drive wealthy clients around the Southern part of the state looking for the perfect tree. When they find one in someone’s yard, they approach the owner to make an offer, buy it, and relocate the tree. Acree says he recently gave one client a $250,000 quote to move a tree.And they aren’t always nearby. Los Angeles real estate developer, Michael Chen, says it took a year-and-a-half to find a tree for a $65 million spec house in Beverly Hills. He ended up getting a 150-year-old 15’ olive tree from Tuscany.You’ll find links to more information on the podcast page for this episode at NewsForInvestors.comLinks:1 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/feds-powell-doesnt-blink-and-5-other-things-we-learned-from-his-press-conference-11619647208?mod=economy-politics2 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-resurgent-u-s-economy-grew-6-4-in-first-quarter-and-even-faster-growth-lies-ahead-11619700267?mod=economic-report3 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/jobless-claims-sink-13-000-to-pandemic-low-553-000-11619700207?mod=economic-report4 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/consumer-spending-surges-in-march-after-americans-get-1-400-stimulus-checks-11619786977?mod=economic-report5 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/consumer-spending-surges-in-march-after-americans-get-1-400-stimulus-checks-11619786977?mod=economic-report6 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/home-prices-are-rising-across-every-part-of-america-but-this-city-is-seeing-the-fastest-growth-11619529787?mod=u.s.-economic-calendar7 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/pending-home-sales-rise-but-low-inventory-could-cause-headaches-for-buyers-11619705889?mod=economic-report8 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/consumer-confidence-jumps-to-14-month-high-thanks-to-coronavirus-vaccines-and-resurgent-economy-11619532387?mod=economic-report9 - https://www.marketwatch.com/story/americans-grow-increasingly-confident-in-the-economy-and-expect-unemployment-to-decline-1161979263410 - http://www.freddiemac.com/pmms/11 - https://eyeonhousing.org/2021/04/how-builders-try-to-deal-with-rising-lumber-prices/12 - https://magazine.realtor/daily-news/2021/04/23/luxury-owners-crown-homes-with-trophy-trees
It may seem like the housing market is as hot as it can ever be, but a new survey shows that millions of Americans could be on the verge of relocating, sparking even more buyer activity.The survey is part of Zillow’s first-ever “Mover Report.” It shows that people are waiting for pandemic worries to go away as they ponder new homes and new locations. Zillow researchers were motivated to find out more about the spring home shopping season, and the people and emotions that are making it happen. What they found was that as many as eight million homeowners say they are more likely to sell their homes and relocate because of the pandemic. And that’s on top of a market that’s already experiencing high demand and low inventory. But these homeowners will also be putting their own homes on the market which is why Zillow is calling it The Great Reshuffling.Many of the potential sellers have been thinking about doing this for quite some time, but have held back due to pandemic worries and uncertainty about their circumstances. In another survey done at the end of February, 70% of homeowners said they would be “mostly or completely comfortable” about selling their homes once the COVID-19 vaccinations have become widespread. Only 52% said they’d feel that way at the time of the survey. The 70% number represents about 14 million homeowners. The latest survey shows that 1 in 10 Americans have already moved since the beginning of the pandemic. Most of those people moved for positive reasons like being closer to family or friends or to live in a place they’ve already dreamed about. And the flexibility of remote work has allowed many of them to fulfill those dreams. Technology has also helped because people moving during the more dangerous parts of the pandemic have been able to tour homes and neighborhoods virtually. That’s given many a lot of confidence about moving to a completely different location.So where are all these people moving to? According to Zillow and information from North American Van Lines, the top destinations are Phoenix, Arizona; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Austin, Texas. Those three markets had the largest number of inbound moves during the first 11 months of last year. But many other Sun Belt cities are seeing population growth as well.Zillow’s senior economist, Jeff Tucker, says: “The pandemic brought an acceleration of trends we were seeing in 2018 and 2019. More affordable, medium-sized metro areas across the Sun Belt saw significantly more people coming than going, especially from more expensive, larger cities farther north and on the coasts.” He also says the pandemic and remote work motivated many millennials to buy their first homes.The pandemic also gave many people the opportunity to do some “Zillow surfing.” Spending so much time stuck at home was a catalyst for searching through the listings for a new home, and a new reality. The Zillow survey says that almost a third of the people had been dreaming of a new home for a year or more. But stress and other worries about money and the process of moving have held many of them back -- according to the survey, about 76%. Among those who have moved, more than half say they are happy about the move or relieved. 80% said the move was worth the effort, especially the part about starting a new chapter in their lives. Almost 60% said they’ve experienced positive life events since they moved to a new home. Zillow has also done another survey on the work from home trend and found that an overwhelming majority of economists and real estate experts feel that it’s here to stay. 95% said they see a permanent shift to a hybrid model where employees work remotely on some days and go to the office on others. 45% also see a permanent tilt toward smaller cities instead of larger ones, and a suburban lifestyle instead of one in a busy city.Researchers also weighed in on housing inventory with more than two thirds saying inventory will grow during the second half of this year or the beginning of next year. That’s mostly due to an increase in existing homes being listed for sale.As more homes hit the market, home price growth is expected to cool off a bit but not by much. They expect to see values increase 6.2% this year, and then drop to 4.5% next year and around 3.5% in each of the three years that follow. Researchers say the price growth is great for sellers, but will keep many renters from buying a home.That’s good news for landlords, although panelists are expected to see a surge of evictions when the moratorium is over. They are predicting 15% of currently distressed renters will end up being evicted. The other 85% will find ways to remain in their current homes or will avoid eviction by finding less expensive rentals.I’ll have links to all these reports on the podcast player page for this episode at: www.NewsForInvestors.comLinks:1 - http://zillow.mediaroom.com/2021-04-06-Zillows-2021-Mover-Report-The-Opportunity-Emotion-and-Trends-Behind-the-Great-Reshuffling2 - https://www.zillow.com/research/covid-vaccine-housing-market-29008/3 - https://www.zillow.com/research/zhpe-q1-2021-work-from-home-29311/
In this Real Estate News Brief for the week ending April 17th, 2021... home builders are stepping on the gas, rents are headed “up” once again, and the best days to list your home.Economic NewsWe begin with economic news from this past week. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell offered more clarity on when the central bank plans to start the tapering process. The Fed has been buying $120 billion worth of Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities each month since last summer as an economic shot in the arm. It also cut interest rates to zero. The Fed expects to begin tapering when the economy reaches full employment and a stable rate of inflation at 2% or slightly more. And, Powell says, that would happen well before any interest rate increases. After the 2013/2014 tapering process began, it took another two years for a rate hike. Powell says the Fed will follow a similar strategy. He didn’t give a date as to when this would happen. Some economists are predicting that tapering will begin next year. Others say it could happen sooner.Signs of inflation continue. Consumer prices have been higher for four months in a row, hitting their highest level in two-and-a-half years last month. The government says the index was up .6%, and the yearly rate of inflation is now 2.6%. Some economists say it could top 3% in the coming months which would put more pressure on the Fed to consider an interest rate increase. Because inflation turned negative during the early months of the pandemic, the yearly rate of inflation could also shoot higher when those low months drop out of the 12-month average. The Fed is predicting inflation will average 2.4% in 2020 and drop back down to 2% next year.Initial jobless claims were down almost 200,000 last week to a pandemic low of 576,000. That’s the first time that weekly state claims fell below 600,000 since the pandemic began. Another 131,000 people filed for help from a temporary federal program bringing the combined total to around 700,000. Continuing claims also dropped from 18.2 million to 16.9 million by the end of March.Home builders are busy after a winter slowdown. The Census Bureau says that home starts jumped 19% in March compared to the previous month. Compared with March of last year, during the pandemic, they are up 37%. Permits are also up, but they took a smaller leap higher at 2.7% but the figures were higher for single-family homes than they were for bigger multi-family developments. In the middle of those two categories was a much bigger 25.5% surge in permits for two- to four-plex homes. MarketWatch says that might indicate a push for higher density housing to meet the demand.And there is a new report out by Freddie Mac on the size of the housing shortfall. It says the U.S. housing market needs 3.8 million more single-family homes to keep up with demand. The shortage is more severe for entry level homes. Freddie Mac’s chief economist Sam Khater says: “This is what you get when you underbuild for 10 years.” Home builders have faced their own challenges, however. The housing crisis put many out of business, which has had a lasting impact. And now the pandemic has made it hard to get workers and created a lumber shortage among other issues.Despite the shortage of homes for sale, consumer sentiment is running high. The University of Michigan says its index rose from 84.9 in March to 86.5 in April. That’s the highest it’s been since March of last year.Mortgage RatesMortgage rates took another dip this last week. Freddie Mac says the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was down 9 basis points to 3.04%. The 15-year was also down 7 basis points to 2.35%.In other news making headlines...Many Remote Workers Won’t Go Back to the OfficeA new survey shows that a third of the people working remotely would rather quit their job than return to the office. Staffing firm Robert Half asked 1,000 people about what they would do, and one out of three said they’d rather look for a new job than return to the office full-time. But many felt that a fully remote job would damage their work relationships and that working from home was less productive. About half of the participants said they’d be happy with a hybrid arrangement. Study authors suggest that companies adopt new policies when they try to lure employees back. Among the things that employees would like are flexible hours, relaxed dress codes, and more support for childcare. Having an environment that’s safe from COVID is also important.Rents are Rising Once AgainRents are on an upswing once again, after an 8-month downtrend. Realtor.com’s Monthly Rental report shows that rent growth was 1.1% year-over-year in March, in the nation’s largest metro areas. Realtor.com’s chief economist Danielle Hale says it’s still below the 3.2% rent growth we saw before the pandemic, but she expects the pace will pick up from here as the economy recovers.She also says: “Rents are not rising in all markets. The tech markets and several big metros like Chicago and Los Angeles continue to see rent declines.” But those declines are also running at a slower pace. She also says that Americans may be more interested in renting as home prices and mortgage rates rise. Best Days to ListNew research shows that sellers who list their homes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday will sell faster and for more money. Redfin tracked home sales data from July 2020 to February of this year, and found out that on average, homes that were listed mid-week sold for $1,700 more. But depending on the home, some sellers are getting thousands of dollars more.Redfin’s chief economist, Daryl Fairweather, says: “The market is so competitive, most homes will receive plenty of attention regardless of when they are listed.” But he says listing in the middle of the week provides more time for buyers to check out the home, and getting as many serious buyers interested will help drive up the sales price.

Airbnb is taking another proactive step to prevent house parties over the Fourth of July weekend. It launched a new campaign called “Summer of Responsible Travel” which bans one-night rentals and last-minute bookings for guests who don’t have a history of good reviews. The July 4th holiday is turning into what many feel is the BIG REOPENING after more than a year of social isolation from the pandemic. Airbnb said in a statement: “We also know that public health and safety experts are still saying mass gathering should not happen.” And that’s why the short-term rental company is introducing the new rules. They are similar to ones that Airbnb implemented for Halloween and New Year’s Eve last year.Airbnb describes the summer travel initiative as an 8-point plan to help hosts, guests and communities remain safe. At the top of that list of rules is a ban on parties that could spread germs, and could also disturb neighbors. To help with the enforcement of this rule,Airbnb has expanded its community support staff by 50%.Airbnb already has a global ban on parties, but the special holiday rules help provide hosts with more tools to keep things under control. The ban on one-night reservations for guests without a history of positive reviews will not apply to guests who have good reviews. People who have already booked a one-night reservation will also be able to keep them. Last minute reservations may also trigger more stringent restrictions, especially for people who live near the Airbnb they’d like to rent. The short-term rental company is also helping superhosts who are worried about parties with discounts on noise monitoring devices. The devices measure decibel levels and can help hosts determine if a party is taking place. These devices can’t be secretly used however. Hosts must disclose their existence on listing pages.Other parts of the summer travel initiative include a Neighborhood Support Line with more Spanish-speaking monitors, house rules that are displayed more prominently on listing pages, safety tips for guests that are renting pool homes, and fire safety tips for people in fire-prone areas like the West Coast. Airbnb is also reiterating the need for hosts to continue with COVID-19 Safety Practices. That includes wearing a mask, practicing social distancing, and disinfecting rentals with a 5-step cleaning process.The issue that has probably caused the most short-term rental controversy is the noise issue. Many short-term vacation rentals or STVRs are located in residential neighborhoods where some long-time residents say there are too many loud parties by short-term rental guests. That may or may not be true in any particular neighborhood, but when enough voices are raised in opposition, elected officials are forced to listen.And now, many city governments are struggling with rules to satisfy both long-term residents and short-term rental hosts. In many cases, the long-term residents are winning that battle, and city governments are completely banning short-term rentals. Unfortunately, that can feel like an injustice to property owners who may need that income, or have been planning for that income as an investment strategy.The city of La Quinta, near Palm Springs, is one of those cities now wrestling with a decision on short-term rentals. It had implemented a ban on new short-term rental permits because of the pandemic that was supposed to be “temporary.” But now, people opposed to short-term rentals want a permanent ban on new permits to reduce the number of short-term rentals in the city.That set the stage for a lively debate at a recent City Council meeting, and the Council voted to extend the permit moratorium until June 1st as it tests a new noise monitoring program. It’s a program that involves 25 properties and devices that measure noise levels. If the noise reaches a certain threshold, the property owner is notified and given a chance to address the problem.Community Resources Analyst, Jaime Torres, told NBC news: “We reached out to three of the biggest vendors in the noise compliance industry. Each of these vendors has a device that helps monitor and track noise and our goal with this is to basically see whether these devices are effective.” Short-term rental owner, Kristen Perry, is one of the people participating in the test. She says: “So far so good!” She says: “I’ve yet to get an alert, and I have (the devices) at half the recommended setting.”If this strategy works to keep noise levels at an acceptable level, the devices could become mandatory for La Quinta vacation rentals. The results may also influence a vote on whether or not the ban on any new permits will be lifted.If you'd like to know more about Airbnb's Summer of Responsible Travel initiative, you'll find a link on the podcast player page for this episode at www.NewsForInvestors.comLinks:1 - https://www.inman.com/2021/04/13/partys-over-airbnb-rolls-out-new-plan-to-stop-summer-gatherings/2 - https://nbcpalmsprings.com/2021/04/07/la-quinta-testing-noise-compliance-program-aimed-at-mitigating-stvr-complaints/3 - https://news.airbnb.com/airbnb-launches-summer-of-responsible-travel/
There’s a new plan brewing to help delinquent borrowers and prevent another wave of foreclosures. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau wants to extend the foreclosure moratorium through the end of this year and is currently asking for comments on the plan. But does the CFPB have the authority to do this?According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, 2.7 million homeowners were in forbearance programs as of January 31st of this year. That’s down from a pandemic peak of some 6 million homeowners, but it’s a substantial number of homes at risk of foreclosure. Black Knight estimates the number of mortgages that are currently 90 or more days past due is about 2 million. And that’s about five times higher than before the pandemic began. The real estate data firm expects some improvement through the end of June, when the current foreclosure moratorium expires, but it expects that 1.8 million mortgages will still be seriously delinquent.The MBA says the delinquency rate for one-to-four-unit residential properties was 6.73% at the end of the fourth quarter. Black Knight says it fell below 6% in January, for the first time since the pandemic began. Although the foreclosure moratorium is currently set to expire in June, delinquent homeowners may have different dates for the expiration of their forbearance programs. Loans backed by Fannie and Freddie can have as much as one year of forbearance. Private lenders may have other options.Extending the foreclosure moratorium will give homeowners more time to work out a solution with their lenders. The CFPB is also proposing ways to streamline the process of getting homeowners out of forbearance and into other payment plans.The MBA’s CEO, Dave Stevens, feels the CFPB has gone beyond its authority in offering to extend the moratorium. Stevens told HousingWire: “My concern is that the bureau is overstepping its bounds and violating in essence agreements that have already been previously made.”He says that another halt on foreclosures could hurt the mortgage industry’s relationship with its investors, which servicers have worked hard to maintain. According to Black Knight, service providers have advanced investors $19 billion for delinquent mortgage payments during the last year. HousingWire also reports that lenders have already been doing a good job helping homeowners exit forbearance. It says that almost 86% of those who exited forbearance did so with a payment plan in place.Executive Vice President of RealtyTrac, Rick Sharga, says of the results: “I think the math speaks for itself how well the forbearance program has worked, and it’s one of the few times in my career that I have seen a government-initiated program adopted as well and executed as well by the industry as this one.”He doesn’t feel the same way about another foreclosure moratorium however. He says: “What they are doing is getting involved in a very complex process and it may be forcing servicers to violate covenants of the investor who bought the loan, and that’s the real challenge.”MBA President, Robert Broeksmit, is also citing some impressive numbers. He reportedly said in a recent article that mortgage servicers successfully helped 4.3 million Americans enter forbearance plans in less than 10 weeks. Broeksmit says: “The ability for the industry and mortgage servicers to overcome the obstacles created by COVID-19 will depend on our ability to work together.”The CFPB is proposing three actions to help borrowers impacted by the pandemic. The first is to grant borrowers more time, with a moratorium that runs through December 31st. The second is to give servicers a way to modify loans more quickly with less paperwork. And third, to improve communication with borrowers so they are aware of their options at the appropriate time.

Remote work has become a dream come true for many people. But, can it also become too much of a good thing? One UC Berkeley researcher predicts that cities will thrive again once the pandemic is under control. His arguments are compelling and support the idea of a metropolitan or suburban lifestyle with fewer days at the office and commutes that are easier because highways are less congested.UC economist Enrico Moretti spoke with Vox about his forecast for the return of “superstar cities.” He talks about how highly skilled workers like to congregate in different metros, and why that trend is probably not going to go away -- although some amount of the urban to suburban shift may remain. Living in the suburbs is still within driving distance of the city and many major companies, making it an attractive option for a hybrid work schedule. The academic term for the clustering of different industries in certain cities is called “agglomeration.” Moretti says it’s one of the most important concepts for understanding why this happens. And he doesn’t think it’s going away. He says: “I think everything that we know from the economic geography before Covid tells us that these forces of agglomeration are quite powerful. And there’s no reason to think that the same tendency to cluster will be all that different in the post-Covid world.”He explains that, for example, the biotech industry clusters geographically in three or four cities. That same goes for other industries, like finance and pharmaceutical. He says: “If you look at all the inventory in computer science, the top 10 metro areas in the U.S. account for 70% of all inventors in computer science.” And it isn’t just in the U.S. Moretti says over the past 20 to 30 years, you can see signs of agglomeration in industrialized countries around the world. Moretti says one of the reasons for the growth of these clusters is that employees leave companies like Microsoft in Seattle, and start their own companies in the same area. But it’s not just that. Moretti says that start-ups also want to tap into a labor force that is already specialized. Although many of these more specialized high-level industries can support remote work, Moretti feels that working remotely 100% of the time won’t work well with the benefits of agglomeration.What he does see is that more work will be done from home but that workers will live within commuting distance of their office. He says: “For the typical employer it’s going to take the form of one work-from-home day a week, or at most two days of work-from-home a week.” He says: “If you have to show up at the office three or four days a week, you still need to live in the metro area where your office is.”And it isn’t all about work, either. Moretti says that people, especially the younger generations, are attracted to city amenities. The fact that cities like New York and San Francisco have looked deserted during the pandemic supports that argument because a lot of the urban amenities have been shut down.He says that once people feel safe from COVID-19 and the amenities re-open, he expects all those well-educated workers will return to cities. If enough people end up working a hybrid work schedule, that could make cities even more attractive because there will be fewer people on the road, commuting.The pandemic had many people thinking that cities were doomed as they moved to far flung areas that didn’t have as many people, or germs. And there have been plenty of headlines about this pandemic migration. But just how far did they really move?A report by retail traffic analytics firm Placer.ai supports the idea that while some people did move to other states, many people stayed closer to home. The results show that most U.S. states saw less than 1% population growth last year and that all that moving around was mostly to the suburbs, not other states.The report shows that Montana and Idaho had the highest number of migrants at 3.7 and 3.9% respectively. Florida, Arizona, and Maine also did well with more than a 1% increase. Cities that were above the 1% mark include Tampa, Charleston, Austin, and Phoenix.So there have been population growth hot spots. Many people have been moving to the Sun-Belt states, but it seems a larger percentage have just moved farther away from their nearby cities.Expedia CEO, Peter Kern, published an opinion piece in Fortune that discredits the idea that cities will remain undesirable after the pandemic is over. He says: “The global health crisis we’re living through is serious, and it will have lasting effects, but does anyone truly believe this event… is capable of fundamentally altering human nature?”The human nature he is referring to is the desire for social interaction. When you think of being human, you don’t think of living in social isolation. Kern says: “Maintaining close relationships with others is essential to our mental health and, ultimately, our survival.” He says he used to live 20 blocks from the World Trade Center and that after 9/11, many people were worried about a mass exodus. But the opposite happened. Kern says: “New York City witnessed booming real estate values, strong economic growth, inward migration, and yes, record tourism.” He says: “People always find their way back to cities.” We don’t know for sure what our post-COVID world will look like, but it looks like people may be more spread out in suburban single-family homes that are within commuting distance of their nearby cities.You’ll find links to these stories on the podcast player page for this episode at www.NewsForInvestors.comLinks:1 - https://www.vox.com/22352360/remote-work-cities-housing-prices-work-from-home2 - https://www.bisnow.com/dallas-ft-worth/news/commercial-real-estate/pandemic-forced-many-to-move-but-most-stayed-in-state-1083703 - https://f.hubspotusercontent00.net/hubfs/5995051/Migration%20Trends%20Deep%20Dive.pdf4 - https://fortune.com/2021/03/15/cities-covid-coronavirus-travel-expedia/
In this Real Estate News Brief for the week ending April 3rd, 2021... an economic update from Fannie Mae, a surge in consumer optimism, and the return of the cicadas.Economic NewsWe begin with economic news from this past week, and an updated economic forecast by Fannie Mae. The mortgage guarantee enterprise is expecting real GDP growth to hit 8.4% in the second quarter of this year, and 6.6% for the full year. It is anticipating the GDP to settle down a bit in 2022. Currently, risks to the economic recovery are viewed as neutral. That includes the future path of COVID-19 and its variants, the easing of social restrictions, and whether consumers will start spending more money from their personal savings. The housing market is expected to remain resilient with purchases hitting $1.82 trillion this year. That’s up from $1.61 trillion last year. Rising interest rates are not expected to have much of an impact. Fannie Mae’s chief economist Doug Duncan says: “While we forecast some continued upward movement, mortgage rates remain historically low, as they are still .8 percentage points below the 2019 average.” (1)There was a spike in first-time unemployment claims last week, but economists are expecting numbers to go down soon, as the economy strengthens. The government says that state claims jumped to 719,000. Combined with claims for federal benefits, the total was “less” than one million. That figure fell below one million two weeks ago for the first time since the pandemic began. (2)The March report on job growth shows a surprising surge in new positions. It says that companies created more than 900,000 new jobs with the largest percentage in the leisure and hospitality industry. But there were also a lot of new jobs for the government and the construction industry. MarketWatch says that job growth easily exceeded Wall Street expectations.The official unemployment rate is now down to 6%, but that figure doesn’t include about 4 million people who lost their jobs during the pandemic, and left the workforce. (3)Pending home sales were down by a significant amount in February due to the lack of existing home inventory along with higher interest rates and homes prices. The National Association of Realtors says pending home sales were down 10.6%. They fell in all parts of the country, but they were down the most in the South with a 13% drop. (4) Chief economist for Realtor.com, Danielle Hale, expects that home price growth will settle down as more sellers put their homes on the market this spring. But prices have already jumped quite a bit. According to the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller national price index, they were up 11.2% year-over-year in January. Phoenix has the highest price appreciation at 15.8%. (5) We will need to see a lot of new sellers to help slow that price growth, and meet demand. Realtor.com’s Monthly Housing Trends Report shows there are 52% fewer homes on the market this year than there were last year. And the national median home price is up 15.6% to $370,000 in March, which is an all-time high. (6)The lack of existing homes is pushing many first-time buyers into the new home market. According to the National Association of Home Builders, new home buyers account for 43% of sales. That’s up from 32% in 2018. (7)Construction spending dipped in February, mostly because of severe weather in many parts of the country. The Commerce Department says it slipped .8%. It’s still up 5.3%, however, compared to a year ago. And it’s expected to bounce back rapidly this spring. (8)Consumer confidence is surging. It hit a one-year high of 109.7 in March. That’s up from 90.4 in February. The Conference Board survey was done as people received $1,400 stimulus checks and more people were vaccinated. (9)Mortgage RatesMortgage rates didn’t move much this last week. Freddie Mac says the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was only up one basis point to 3.18%. The 15-year didn’t budge and remains at 2.45%. (10)In other news making headlines...Eviction Moratorium ExtendedThe CDC extended the national eviction moratorium another three months. It now ends on June 30th. The moratorium has been challenged by several states and local governments because it has left many landlords without rent payments to pay their own bills.Landlords do have access to some amount of rental assistance from relief packages passed by Congress. The National Association of Realtors helped make that happen, but NAR’S chief advocacy officer, Shannon McGahn says: “Our focus now turns to ensuring there is not just enough funding but also a smooth implementation of rental assistance while the various challenges to eviction bans work their way through the courts.” (11)The Cicadas Are ComingIt’s been 17 years since the last invasion of a bug called the cicada. If you’re familiar with them, you probably know that they are expected to emerge from their underground hiding place this spring. They are grass hopper-like bugs that shed their skin, and leave behind mounds of their sloughed-off exterior in the yards that they occupy. They are also very loud, and can be heard as far away as a half a mile. States expecting this kind of invasion are located in the central east coast region, up through New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania then west toward the north central states.
