Podcasts about pulsenomics

In this episode of the Top of Mind podcast, Mike Simonsen sits down with Terry Loebs from Pulsenomics for a deep dive into forecasting home prices and the housing market. Terry has been at the forefront of measuring and projecting home prices for decades. About Terry Loebs Terry Loebs possesses more than 35 years of experience in the capital markets and in developing innovative data-driven products and services. He started his career on Wall Street evaluating and trading mortgage whole loans and servicing rights portfolios while earning his MBA at The New York University Stern School of Business. After joining the Case Shiller Weiss, Inc. (CSW) in 1996, Terry led the commercial development of the Case-Shiller Indexes®, the subsequent effort to establish their reputation as a premier home price performance benchmark, and the launch of the first AVM for both consumers and lenders. After the 2002 acquisition of CSW by Fiserv, Terry managed the property data analytics team at the merged organization for three years before reuniting with Robert Shiller at MacroMarkets LLC. In 2011, Terry founded Pulsenomics®, an independent research and index product development firm that leverages expertise in data analytics, opinion research, financial markets, and economics to deliver unique insight and market intelligence to institutional clients, partners, and the public at large. Since 2010, Terry has managed an expert survey panel comprised of over 150 leading economists, investment strategists, portfolio managers, and real estate market analysts to produce the quarterly Home Price Expectations Survey™, which is currently sponsored by Fannie Mae.  For nearly a decade, Terry also served as lead independent trustee and eventually board chairman overseeing a multibillion-dollar ETF trust until its sale in early 2024. Here's a glimpse of what you'll learn:  Can people really forecast the housing market? Or home prices? Can we better understand how housing wealth impacts the broader economy? Why legacy macroeconomic confidence indicators don't include housing and why that matters What the Fannie Mae Home Price Expectations Survey tells us about the housing market for 2024 and beyond The surprising way that forecasters' views for housing in 2024 are different than they have been for the last 15 years Why home prices have “downward stickiness” How forecasting long-term home prices is different from forecasting the next year and what to look for long term The one housing market indicator that 84% of expert panelists agree on Which risks are not yet priced into the housing market expectations The big macro economic trends that are potentially the most impactful for the housing market in the coming years.

During this episode of the Lab Coat Agents podcast, host Jeff Pfitzer speaks with Barry Habib, the best prognosticator of the existing Real Estate and Mortgage industry. He is the CEO of the MBS Highway and three times Crystal Ball Award Winner by Zillow and Pulsenomics for giving the most accurate Real Estate forecasts out of 150 of the top economists in the United States.  Episode Highlights: Jeff asks Barry to tell the listeners about his entrepreneurial journey, industry experience, and the challenges he has faced. Barry wrote a book called, Money in the Streets, which was the number one Amazon bestseller. It is a wonderful book with regards to finding real estate opportunities. There are so many opportunities to help clients identify. In the market now, “You have to win the home, you don’t just buy it.” Barry produced Criss Angel in Las Vegas and Rock of Ages on Broadway, as lead producer and managing partner, which became worldwide. He was in the mortgage sector for many years and had his own company which he built and sold. He was ranked as the top producer in the United States several times and he was named “Mortgage Professional of the Year” in 2019.  Barry talks about the importance of identifying and addressing points of friction in business. Barry states that you win trust in two ways: 1) Not being afraid to tell everything that is bad and 2) Having true knowledge. If we learn to establish trust quickly, we will have more transactions, we'll be happier in our relationships, and we will be more successful in general. Barry says a real estate agent should be like an advisor, willing to present the good and the bad. He says to put yourself in the position of the buyer when you think about what they would want and need to know. The demand side of the industry is new households being formed and the supply side is households being completed by builders.  The first time home buyer is a critical element in supply and demand. They don’t replace inventory.  According to Zillow, the median age of the first-time home buyer is 33 years old. Looking at birth rates, over the next five years, there is going to be an even greater influx of first-time home buyers who will be depleting the inventory. In regards to affordability, he says it's important to understand the actual math behind it because the media does not get it right. We are in the seventh most affordable housing market on record. The most recent existing home sales report showed the median home price rose 16%; It also showed that hourly earnings rose by 5%. The median home price is not appreciation, that is the mix of homes. Since there is not as much inventory on the lower end, less people are buying on the lower end. For homes above 1 million dollars, sales increased by 80%. The increase above that level moved the median home price up. With incomes going up over 6% and interest rates staying relatively the same, sale prices could go up 10, 15, 20, 25%. Barry emphasizes fulfillment in the journey of seeking one’s goals. The monetary benefit will come but the factor of truly being able to help others is the source of actual fulfillment. “The feeling that we get from helping is better than the check.” 3 Key Points: Barry states that establishing trust is the foundation for being  successful in anything. Focusing on letting go of our fears, let go of our insecurities, getting out of our own heads, and truly seeking the customers’ best interest in advising them is the key to success in real estate.  To understand the affordability and sustainability of the current housing market, we have to look beyond the repeated misconceptions of the media and into the real data and math.   Resources Mentioned: Lab Coat Agents  | Website | Facebook | Facebook Group | Twitter | Instagram | Jeff Pfitzer   | Instagram | LinkedIn | Twitter Barry Habib | LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | Website RedX (sponsor) LinkU (sponsor)

We’re often warned to prepare for an impending recession, but sometimes the information we learn through the media isn’t an accurate reflection of the state of the market. How can we observe clues of an impending recession ourselves? Is it possible for us to keep winning in business when the market inevitably drops - or should we be preparing for the worst? On this episode, CEO of MBS Highway, Barry Habib shares why we need to rethink what we know about recessions, and offers insight on how we can continue to thrive. Focus on the road ahead, not the obstructions. Do it in driving and you’ll be better; do it in life and you will be much more successful. -Barry Habib   Three Things We Learned From This Episode Rethink what recessions look like (11:55- 12:44) When we talk of a recession, we tend to think of what we saw in 2008 and 2009. The reality is, recessions are dependent on the expansion period prior to them. The expansion period we’re currently in has been extended, but shallow. That means, the recession we’ll see in the next year or so will also be shallow.  Observe the clues of an impending recession (13:22- 15:20) The first place recessions show their effects is in big corporations. As these corporations let people go to cut costs, those who have lost their jobs start spending money at more cost-effective stores like Walmart and Target. The reason stocks have gone up at Target and Walmart is because there are more people looking into cost effective options.  Look further ahead (27:02- 28:42) Most of us are guilty of zoning in on one area of focus while we’re trying to get ahead. While it’s great to be focused, by zoning in on only one goal, we run the risk of seeing the big picture. No matter the condition of the market, be sure to take a holistic view of what’s around us.   A recession is inevitable, and we should be prepared for it. However, recession isn’t necessarily synonymous with devastation. There are ways to identify the early signs of the market dropping, and we need to remain aware of them. Keep looking forward and be aware of all the signs - whether we’re in a recession, preparing for one, or exiting one. If we can maintain a holistic view, we will keep winning no matter what the market has in store for us.    Guest Bio-  Barry Habib is the founder and CEO of mortgage analytics firm MBS Highway, a company dedicated to helping mortgage professionals and real estate agents articulate the opportunities in the housing market.

Looking to sell your San Diego home? Get a free home value reportLooking to buy a San Diego home? Click here for full MLS accessAs we wrap up the summer, many of you are likely wondering where our market is headed now. The numbers for August are in, and they point to a trend you may have already noticed. Things in the market have been a little sluggish lately. The number of sales is down about 12% year over year. This seems to be more due to lack of inventory as opposed to a lack of interest from buyers.The number of multiple offers has also gone down, but 60% of all homes sold still received them. Also, 31% of homes are selling above list price.We’ve seen a year over year appreciation of 7.4% in San Diego County. So, where do we go from here? Pulsenomics recently released its home expectation survey for the third quarter. Pulsenomics makes these predictions for our market by going out and interviewing over 100 different economists, finance specialists, and Realtors nationwide. “Due to lack of inventory, our market is a little sluggish lately. ”Using the information they gathered, they expected about a 5% appreciation overall for 2017. However, they expect the appreciation rate to steadily decline until about 2020. In 2020 and 2021, they expect the appreciation rate to stay level at about 3%. Even with this decline in percentage, the prediction remains that our market will continue to appreciate for the next five years. If you have any other questions or would like more information, feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

That is why we like the home price expectations survey. Every quarter, Pulsenomics surveys a nationwide panel of more than 100 economists, real estate experts, and investment and market strategists about where they believe home prices are headed over the next five years. They then average these projections from their experts into one single number. The results of the latest surveys are in, and here’s what they are saying.“Home values will appreciate by4% over the course of 2016. ” Home values will appreciate by 4% over the course of 2016, then appreciation will taper down to 3.4% in 2017, 3% in 2018 and 2019, and drop to 2.8% in 2020. The annual average appreciation over the next five years will be 3.2% nationally. The greater Seattle area will see even higher appreciation than this, but these are the likely national projections.Cumulative house appreciation projections slowed a bit from 25% to 24.7% by 2020. The most bearish experts in the survey are still projecting cumulative appreciation of at least 9% by 2020.The bottom line is this: individual opinions make headlines, but we believe this survey is a fair depiction of future home values. If you have any questions at all, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you.
