The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act Did Not Go Over The Cliff, Here to Stay Through 2013

Fiscal Cliff1Was there any good news for Distressed Homeowners as we waited for politicians to avoid taking us over the Fiscal Cliff?  Yes!  The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act  was extended through December 2013.  All of our Clients can breathe a sigh of relief.  What does this mean to homeowners who are under water on their Principal Residence and thinking about listing their homes; and for those already under contract? Well, it means continue as planned and move forward.

The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007 was enacted on December 20, 2007.  The Act was designed to help distressed homeowners find relief from cancelled debt.  According to the www.IRS.gov website:

“If you owe a debt to someone else and they cancel or forgive that debt, the canceled amount may be taxable.

 The Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 generally allows taxpayers to exclude income from the discharge of debt on their principal residence. Debt reduced through mortgage restructuring, as well as mortgage debt forgiven in connection with a foreclosure, qualifies for the relief.”

Get answers to some of the most frequently asked questions regarding the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act and Debt Consolidation such as:

What is Cancellation of Debt?  |   Is Cancellation of Debt income always taxable?  |  What is the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007?  |  What does exclusion of income mean?  |  Does the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act apply to all forgiven or cancelled debts?  |  Does the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act apply to debt incurred to refinance a home?  |  If the forgiven debt is excluded from income, do I have to report it on my tax return? 

There are many more questions and answers regarding the Debt Relief Act that apply to individuals each with their own circumstances so when it comes to the Debt Relief Act and Debt Cancellation individuals should consult a tax consultant and an attorney.

The recent history of sales can be seen in the two charts above. The median sold price for the last 30 days was $262,500 with a DOM of 53 days. Since the recent DOM is greater than the median DOM for the last 6 months, it is a negative indicator for demand. It is always important to realize that real estate markets can fluctuate due to many factors, including shifting interest rates, the economy, or seasonal changes.

Looking at the chart below, you might be wondering why average days on market (DOM) is important. This is a useful measurement because it can help us to determine whether we are in a buyer’s market (indicated by high DOM), or a seller’s market (indicated by low DOM). Active listings (properties for sale) have been on the market for a median time of 87 days. Analysis of sold properties for the last six months reveals a median sold price of $272,500 and 41 days on market. Notice that properties in the $600,000 – $700,000 price range have sold quickest over the last six months.

Chelsea Area Market Report Over the Last 6 Months

Chelsea number of listings for Sale Vs. Pending Contract in Chelsea

Market Snapshot
Just Click Market Snapshop
or Fill in The Form To The Right
Have Report Sent to Your Inbox

 

Let’s take a look at the real estate market.

Currently there are 8 Chelsea home sales pending in the market overall, leaving 97 listings still for sale. The resulting pending ratio is 7.6% (8 divided by 105). So you might be asking yourself, that’s great… but what exactly does it mean? I’m glad you asked!

The pending ratio indicates the supply & demand of the Chelsea Real Estate market. Specifically, a high ratio means that homes are selling and quickly going to contract. Alternatively, a low ratio means there are not enough qualified buyers for the existing supply. “Current inventory is described as somewhat slow.”

Taking a closer look, we notice that the $0 – $100,00 price range has a relatively large number of contracts pending sale. We also notice that the $200,000 – $300,000 price range has a relatively large number of Chelsea homes for sale at 32 listings. The median list price (or asking price) for all properties in this market is $249,900. A total of 118 Chelsea homes have closed in the last 6 months with a median sold price of $184,500. Breaking it down, we notice that the $100,000 – $200,000 price range contains the highest number of sold Chelsea homes.

Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Deeds Down Again in 2012

Kathy Toth & Team, Keller Williams Realty Ann Arbor Market Center, Ann Arbor, MI 734.426.6669

Ann Arbor, University of Michigan Cube, Tony Rosenthal Artist
Visit the Cube on U of M Main Campus

Washtenaw County Recorded Sheriff’s Deeds are down 27.8 percent compared to the same time last year.  The monthly foreclosure  totals are very reflective of the year 2006.  This is excellent news with only 4 more months yet to be revealed in 2012.  There were a total of 571 Sheriff’s Deeds recorded of the 8 months in 2012 compared to 791 for the same time frame in 2011 and we have not had a lower total comparing the same time frames since 2006 which had a total of 411 Sheriff’s Deeds recorded.   Comparing only August  of 2011 to August of 2012 we are down 39.6% from last year.

An updated table showing monthly recording for January 2002 through August, 2012 is presented below.

Market inventory is still low in Ann Arbor, Michigan  and throughout the entire Washtenaw County area.  Now, makes for a great  time to list your home because buyers are eager to purchase the inventory. Never a better time for Buyers – So Why Rent When You Can Own especially with interest rates at an all-time low.
