So, President Bush withdrew his veto threat, and signed the housing bill into law early this morning. Outside of the politics that he is playing with the Democratic controlled Congress (interesting in and of itself), let's review what the bill provides.

GlobeSt.com and its parent, Real Estate Media Network, hosted  "The U.S. Economy Crisis and Cures," an economic briefing today with top economists from Ernst & Young, Moody's, the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, CB Richard Ellis and Marcus & Millichap to discuss the current economy and its impact on the commercial real estate industry.  Following are highlights of the presentation:   The general consensus is that we are experiencing a crisis in confidence, not a crisis in market fundamentals.  The numbers indicate a mild downturn, not a recession. The economy has been steadily contracting since December 2007, with housing and the financial sector the leading indicators. Though we haven't yet met the definition for a recession (two consecutive quarters of negative GDP), the overall impression is that of a slowdown, impacting nearly all sectors The downturn is in line with expectations and less severe than previo...

People are always asking me what the market is doing in real estate and I keep saying "It Depends". Anyone that gives a quick answer to such a broad question should be dismissed immediately.   The old proverb of "location, location, location" is still true. You can look at a snapshot of just the market in Eagle and draw a very different conclusion than if you looked in Kuna. Even the nine different MLS areas that make up "Boise" will provide drastically different answers. But since my blog is based on "Ada County" the following numbers are averages for the entire county. I would be glad to research specifics if you need them.   The quick good news is that every single market segment (homes, condos, mobile homes, etc.,) showed improvements over the first quarter! For example, we sold 388 more single family homes in the second quarter than in the first. Although these numbers are still below 2nd quarter 2007 numbers, it is nice to see the ...
