Hello and welcome to This Month in Real Estate. Im Jay Papasan.
The First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit has been extended and expanded, and the details can be found in our most recent special edition.
For December, we take a look at the results the incentive had on stimulating home sales since 2008.
According to the IRS, about 1.4 million people have taken advantage of the first time homebuyer tax credit.
Not surprisingly, California ranks number one with the number of people filing a claim for the tax credit, while Alaska and Wyoming are among the states with the fewest number of claims.
But those numbers dont tell the whole story. For more, we go to Bryon Ellington. Bryon?
Bryon: Thanks, Jay.
According to the Internal Revenue Service, every state in the Union has participated in the First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit.
If we look at the results according to the total number of claims, heres how the rankings shake out:
California is number one with more than 160 thousand tax payers taking advantage of the first time home buyer tax credit.
Texas is number two with over 131 thousand.
And Florida is number three with over 105 thousand.
But when we look at the data in terms of per capita claims, or the percentage of folks in each state who took advantage of the tax credit, we get radically different results.
Heres a look at the top three in terms of per capita participation in the tax credit
Nevada is in the number one position with more than 20 thousand claims out of a population of 2.6 million.
Utah is in the number two position with over 17 thousand claims out of a population of 2.7 million.
And Arizona is in the third position with over 38 thousand claims out of a population of 6.5 million.
Whats more, we find Alaska moving from near the bottom of the rankings to number 26 above California! And Wyoming, the least populated state in the U.S., moves to number 16. Thats just a bit behind Texas in terms of per capita tax payer participation.
Back to you, Jay
Jay: Thanks, Bryon. Thats it for This Month in Real Estate. Thank you for joining us.

We went and looked at some real estate this weekend to see how it’s bottomed. All it did was worry me more. I’m sure my city is different than the ones the news must be reporting. The real estate crisis is not over, at least I don’t think it is. People have been hammered with the price drop in the last couple of years. Reality is just starting to set in for some. I think the high end home owners are in the most denial. The reality of real estate, who is able to afford huge mortgages when most should are just thankful they have a job. I’ve noticed the cost of goods (food, shipping costs, wholesale prices) are much higher and these prices are go to be passed down after some time. I think we will see or are seeing deflation with home prices still and hints of inflation on most other goods and services. H1N1 should help screw up our service based economy as soon as flu season hits. How’s your home town doing? That’s all I have.

Need to lease any office space? There is more and more available in Florida and other places around the country. If this continues many more companies will be out of business and bankrupt. I’ve heard over 150K businesses went bust last year.

How is your town doing? Is there tons of empty commercial real estate? Is this the end of the urban sprawl? Many are losing millions from lost rentals. If the large corporations are having a hard time staying in business how is the little guy going to make it? If debt is money and there is no credit, there is no money! Please add a video of your town of commercial or residential. You pray & the churches prey! March 13, 2009

What I learned today will have devastating ramification for the real estate marketing and in turn the entire financial and stock market and the broader economy as a whole.
If true…our real estate fate is seal. There will be more housing and real estate foreclosure carnage ahead. The road is long.
Prepare yourself and protect your family from this coming economic catastrophe.
PLEASE RATE, LINK, SHARE and SPREAD the word so others can learn about the real nature of our real estate and economic crisis. Don’t be a sponge to the talking heads that spew only that which benefits them and their bosses. Wake up!

From L.A Times:
Bulk of bank-owned homes aren’t even on the market yet
“Banks to unleash flood of REOs” at Inman News looks at the effect of foreclosures on the housing market this year:
Inventories of unsold homes are likely to swell in coming months as lenders begin to push a growing backlog of repossessed homes up for sale — often in communities already awash in distressed properties….
Because it can take weeks or months for lenders to put repossessed homes on the market, the impact of real estate-owned (REO) properties on inventories lags behind foreclosures. Government efforts to recapitalize banks through the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) and other bailout measures may also have taken some of the heat off of lenders to unload REO properties at fire-sale prices.
But with the emphasis of TARP and other government relief efforts now expected to shift to creating jobs, helping troubled borrowers avoid foreclosure and providing incentives for home buyers, lenders could soon unleash a torrent of real-estate owned, or “REO” properties — even in markets already flooded with an oversupply of homes for sale.
“It’s almost like a tsunami — you can see it coming and you know it’s going to hit but you can’t get out of the way,” said Ann Stickel, vice president of affiliated services with Sarasota, Fla.-based brokerage Michael Saunders & Co.
So how many bank-owned properties aren’t even on the Multiple Listing Service yet? RealtyTrac senior vice president Rick Sharga puts the number at 75%. That’s a lot of houses.
