The good economist realize the housing bust in not over, but we are in the middle.
DAVID ROSENBERG: The Housing Bust Isn’t Over, We’ve Got 2 Or 3 More Years Of Pain
Matthew Boesler| Jun. 26, 2012, 9:27 AM
Gluskin Sheff chief economist David Rosenberg was on BloombergTV this morning talking about the U.S. housing market
Rosenberg said that although home prices do appear to be carving out a bottom, there are major issues that will put downward pressure on prices for a while yet.
On shadow inventories and foreclosures, Rosenberg told Bloomberg:
I estimate that there is between two and three million excess housing units on the market for sale when you count in all the shadow inventory, so you’re talking about at least another two or three years to clear the inventory and put a definitive floor under home prices.
There is no question that the decline in home prices is decelerating. Some people are claiming victory, that we’ve actually put a floor under home prices permanently. I’m not so sure about that.
I think we are going to get more foreclosed homes now and it’s going to add to the inventory situation. My sense is that when you take a look at where the value of these homes are being priced in the marketplace, it’s going to put overall downward pressure on housing prices over the course of the next several quarters.

The Option ARM recast (not reset) is still predicted to cause problems in some markets.
Investment Firm Predicts 2nd Wave of Foreclosures in San Diego
San Diego County is in for a second wave of foreclosures, and this time, it will be even bigger than before, according to Blue Sky Capital, a San Diego-based real estate investment firm.
Blue Sky Capital tracked area properties and found that loans funded with Option Arm, which is a type of adjustable rate mortgage, and Alt-A are about see higher interest rates.
This will lead to higher mortgage payments for homeowners and will cause those who can’t afford the new payments to potentially go into foreclosure.
“While these Option Arm and Alt-A loans exist throughout the county, areas like Carmel Valley are filled with them. During our tracking of distressed properties in the county we found many homes in areas like Carmel Valley were purchased with zero, or a small amount down, so there is very little equity in theses properties,” said Chris Williams, CEO of Blue Sky Capital.
With more than 36 percent of all mortgages in San Diego underwater, the investment firm said it expects things to get worse before they get better.
Blue Sky Capital also tracks housing supply and home prices and gave credit to negative equity for the rise in home prices since it is preventing people from listing their homes.
Williams explained that the increase is only temporary and not a real sign that things are improving.
“These situations are unsustainable and certainly short lived. Strategic defaults, foreclosures and property value declines have to happen for the market to reset and clear itself of the toxicity from the greatest mortgage mess of this century,” he said.
