AEI Housing Center Nowcast Data Weeks 30 & 31, July 18th – July 31st, 2020, plus Manufactured Home Investing, Stock Updates

DowJones8.04.2020ManufacturedHomeStockUpdatesBroaderMarketSnapshotThe post-COVID19 shutdowns and restart of the U.S. economic and housing data have been tracked by the American Enterprise Institute (AEI).

The AEI Housing Center’s Tobias Peter, Director of Research, plus Edward J. Pinto – Resident Fellow and Director – established what they dubbed ‘Nowcast’ housing data.

As regular MHProNews readers know, Nowcast was initially weekly. But it has moved to biweekly because the AEI Housing Center said they believed that the trends have become relatively stable.

Here is how AEI defines their biweekly report.

Nowcasting is the prediction of present economic trends using alternative data sources that are both detailed and high-frequency. This report uses real-time information…” on what is now an every-other week reporting basis.

The most recent Nowcast from AEI, provided on 8.4.2020, will be our featured focus below.

The featured focus segment of this evening’s market report is found beyond the left-right headline news bullets and 2 of our 3 market snapshots at the close today. The manufactured housing industry connected stocks are near the end of the report each evening, after the featured focus and the related/recent report links.

Key Takeaways:

  • Driven by ultra-low mortgage rates and a limited supply, national home price appreciation (HPA) accelerated to around 9-10%.

o  This rate exceeds the rate before the pandemic, which may indicate the home price boom will likely continue due to low rates and heavy demand.

  • In a continuation of the last several weeks’ strong upward trend, purchase rate lock volume for the weeks 30 & 31 rose 40% and 32% from a year ago, respectively.

o  This provides further evidence that the worst of the near term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown may be behind us on a national level.

o  As a result of the last weeks’ strong purchase lock volume, combined with strong volume in weeks 1-13, year-to-date volume is now running 21.6% ahead of last year.

AEIHousingCenterNowcastLogoWeek30-31.2020EndingJuly31.2020Chart1MHProNews

Note: Due to the recent stabilization in rate lock activity and trends, we will be publishing these nowcasts every other week unless we observe notable changes to the market, in which case we may produce additional reports.

Using newly acquired data from Optimal Blue , a rate lock software provider covering roughly a third of the market, the AEI Housing Center Housing Market Nowcast provides near-real-time insights on the single-family residential housing market convulsing from the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. While Optimal Blue data are used, Edward Pinto and Tobias Peter are solely responsible for the analysis contained herein.

AEIHousingCenterNowcastLogoWeek30-31.2020EndingJuly31.2020StatePurchaseRateLockActivityChart3MHProNews

After extensive historical analysis of Optimal Blue data going back 7 years, we have concluded that these rate lock data track closely those reported in our National Mortgage Risk Index (NMRI), which cover 99% of the agency market. As a result, today’s Housing Market Nowcast will provide an advance look at tomorrow’s housing market as today’s rate locks will become next month’s home purchases and mortgages.

Home Price Appreciation (HPA) Trends

Driven by ultra-low mortgage rates and a limited supply, national HPA accelerated to 9.8% in week 30, a new peak for 2020, and 9.0% in week 31. This rate of HPA is unsustainable and far exceeds the levels before the pandemic.

Weekly Purchase Rate Lock Activity & Mortgage Rates

In a continuation of the last several weeks’ strong upward trend, purchase rate lock activity continued to far exceed 2019 activity. This increase is in part driven by low mortgage rates, which have fallen below 3.0%. As a result of the last weeks’ strong purchase lock volume, combined with strong volume in weeks 1-13, year-to-date volume is now running 21.6% ahead of last year.

To analyze the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, we overlay 2019 data on top of 2020 data.
