1 HOUSING FINANCE POLICY CENTER HOUSING FINANCE AT A GLANCE A MONTHLY CHARTBOOK November

2 INTRODUCTION In the tradition of the Urban Institute, the Housing Finance Policy Center s (HFPC) mission is to produce analyses and ideas that promote sound public policy, efficient markets, and access to economic opportunity. The November edition of At A Glance draws on the rich institutional resources of the center, and its unique capabilities in analyzing complex data. The center is committed to making key metrics widely available for policymakers, academics, journalists, and others interested in the government's role in mortgage markets and broader trends in housing finance. At A Glance s development will mirror HFPC s dynamic, evolving research agenda. More than a one-stop reference, At A Glance underscores the connections between the housing market and public policy. This month we added detailed, succinct data for the three GSE risk-sharing transactions to date, as well as historical information on FHA mortgage insurance premiums. A new quarterly feature, GSE Composition and Default Rates, draws from newly released Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac public loan-level databases. We translate this information to illustrate composition and default rates. Our vision is that this and other HFPC publications will serve as the basis for thoughtful, well-crafted housing finance policies that meet the nation s diverse housing needs.

5 OVERVIEW MARKET SIZE OVERVIEW Home values continue to improve, increasing the total value of the US residential housing market. However, the reliance on mortgage financing is decreasing because of a sizable share of cash purchases. According to the 2013 Q2 Fed Flow of Funds report, the total size of the mortgage market stands at $9.8 trillion. Agency mortgagebacked securities (MBS) make up 56 percent of the total; private-label securities make up 8.6 percent; and unsecuritized first liens at commercial banks, savings institutions, and credit unions make up 22.4 percent $25,000 Value of the US Residential Housing Market as of Q Size of the US Residential Mortgage Market as of Q Unsecuritized first liens at commercial banks, savings institutions, credit unions Equity, $9,772 $20,000 $15,000 Equity, $9,772 Fannie and Freddie loans in portfolio Agency MBS Private-label securities Second liens $ billions $10,000 $10,000 $2,208 $5,000 Debt, household mortgages, $9,833 $7,500 $5,000 $537 $5,508 $2,500 $0 Sources: Federal Reserve Flow of Funds and Urban Institute. $0 $849 $731 Sources: Federal Reserve Flow of Funds, Inside Mortgage Finance, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Urban Institute. 5

6 OVERVIEW MARKET SIZE OVERVIEW As of September 2013, debt in the private-label securitization market is split among prime (20.4 percent),alt-a (44.2 percent), and subprime (35.4 percent) loans. The agency market is 47.6 percent Fannie Mae, 28 percent Freddie Mac, and 24.4 percent Ginnie Mae. 100% 90% 80% Private-Label Securities by Product Type as of September 2013; dollars in billions Prime, $ % 60% 50% Alt-A, $ % 30% 20% 10% Subprime, $ % Sources: CoreLogic and Urban Institute. 100% Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities as of Q2 2013; dollars in billions 90% 80% 70% Fannie Mae, $2,620 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% Freddie Mac, $1,545 Ginnie Mae, $1,343 0% Sources: Inside Mortgage Finance and Urban Institute. 6

7 OVERVIEW OVERVIEW ORIGINATION VOLUME AND COMPOSITION First Lien Origination Volume First lien originations through the first three quarters of 2013 stand at $1.59 trillion originations will likely fall just short of 2012's $2.12 trillion due to the impact of higher rates. Note that the 2012 numbers were revised upward about $250 billion from last month's edition based on newly released HMDA figures. Year-todate private label originations, at $12.2 billion, while still very small, are already double last year's amount. $4.0 $3.5 $ trillions $3.0 $2.5 $2.0 $1.5 $1.0 Bank portfolio PLS total securitization FHA/VA securitization GSE securitization $0.5 $ First Lien Origination Share 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% (Q1-3) 2013 (Q1-3) Sources: Inside Mortgage Finance and Urban Institute. The GSE share of first lien originations, at 61.7 percent, is down slightly from last quarter but remains elevated compared to historic levels. FHA/VA originations remain strong at 18.9 percent, slightly ahead of the 2012 share of 17.6 percent. The PLS share, still less than 1 percent, is barely creeping back, and the share of bank portfolio originations has declined slightly from 2012, now at 16.2 percent.

8 OVERVIEW SECURITIZATION VOLUME AND COMPOSITION Agency/Non-Agency Share of Residential MBS Issuance Non-agency single-family MBS issuance has ticked up but remains less than 2 percent of the market for 2013 through October, and the share is even lower excluding Re-REMICS. Over this period, total non-agency issuance was $25.7 billion, compared to $13.2 billion for all of This represents significant progress, but still pales in comparison to nonagency numbers in the pre-bubble years such as 2002, when issuance reached $400 billion. The pace of new securitization slowed dramatically in October as pricing became increasingly unfavorable. Several deals were pulled during the course of the month. 100% Sources: Inside Mortgage Finance and Urban Institute. 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Non-Agency MBS Issuance (through Oct.)

9 OVERVIEW AGENCY ACTIVITY: VOLUMES AND PURCHASE/REFI COMPOSITION Year-to-date agency issuance totaled $1.4 trillion in October. In October, refinances were percent of the GSEs business, down from over 80 percent in January a decline reflects rising interest rates. The Ginnie Mae market has always been more purchase-driven, with refinance volume down to 24.2 percent in October from 56 percent in January.

10 OVERVIEW OVERVIEW CREDIT AVAILABILITY FOR PURCHASE LOANS Access to credit has become extremely limited and continues to tighten, especially for borrowers with low FICO scores. The 10th percentile of FICO scores on new originations, which represents the lower bound of creditworthiness needed to qualify for a mortgage, stood at 662 as of September Prior to the housing crisis, this threshold held steady in the low 600s. LTV levels at origination remain relatively high, which reflects the large number of FHA purchase originations.

11 OVERVIEW OVERVIEW CREDIT AVAILABILITY FOR PURCHASE LOANS Across all MSAs, credit has been tight for all borrowers except for those with the highest FICO scores. Still, there are variations across MSAs, though FICOs are high overall. Borrowers in San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA have origination FICOs near 770, while borrowers in San Antonio-New Braunfels, TX have FICOs near 720. Note that across MSAs, lower FICO scores go hand in hand with high LTVs at origination, as these MSAs rely heavily on FHA/VA financing.

For more, see Lan Shi s recent article on housing affordability, The Impact of Mortgage Rate Increases on Housing Affordability. National Housing Affordability Over Time Maximum affordable price is the house price that a family can afford based on the following assumptions: 20% down payment, monthly payment of 28% of median family income (US Census), Freddie Mac prevailing rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, and property tax and insurance at 1.75% of housing value.

13 OVERVIEW GSES UNDER PORTFOLIO CONSERVATORSHIP WIND DOWN: FANNIE GSE PORTFOLIO MAE WIND-DOWN: FANNIE MAE Under conservatorship, both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have shrunk their portfolios and shifted their mix of assets, as the agency MBS share is shrinking more rapidly than the less liquid assets (mortgage loans and non-agency MBS). Agency MBS now comprises 28.5 percent of the Fannie portfolio and 41 percent of the Freddie portfolio. Both GSEs will be well under their portfolio cap of $552.5 billion for year-end Fannie now stands at $516.3 billion and Freddie at $497.8 billion.

16 OVERVIEW SERIOUS GSES UNDER CONSERVATORSHIP DELINQUENCY RATES AT THE SERIOUS GSEs DELINQUENCY RATES Serious delinquency rates at the GSEs continue to decline as the legacy portfolio is resolved and the pristine, post-2009 book of business exhibits very low default rates.

18 GSES UNDER CONSERVATORSHIP REFINANCE ACTIVITY The Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) refinances have begun to slow. Two factors are responsible for this: (1) higher interest rates, leaving fewer eligible loans where refinancing is economically advantageous (in-the-money), and (2) a considerable number of borrowers who have already refinanced. There have been over 18 million refinances of GSE loans since Q2 2009, 2.9 million of these through HARP. As a result, the pool of eligible loans remaining is much lower.

19 OVERVIEW GSES UNDER LOANS: CONSERVATORSHIP DISTRIBUTION OF POTENTIAL GSE LOANS: REFINANCES POTENTIAL REFINANCES To qualify for HARP, a loan must be originated before June 2009, have a marked-to-market loan-to-value (MTM LTV) ratio above 80, and have no more than one delinquent payment in the past year and none in the past six months. There are 1,383,651 eligible loans, but 32 percent are out-of-the-money because the closing cost would exceed the long-term savings, leaving 938,771 loans where a HARP refinance is both permissible and economically advantageous for the borrower. Loans below the LTV minimum but meeting all other HARP requirements are eligible for GSE streamlined refinancing. Of the 7,784,892 loans in this category, 5,964,652 are in-the-money. More than half the GSE book of business was originated after the cutoff date. Of these loans, 2,200,797 meet the other HARP criteria, but 84 percent are out-of-the-money, leaving only 357,915 loans that, if there was a change in the eligibility date, would be potential HARP candidates at current interest rate levels.

21 OVERVIEW MODIFICATION ACTIVITY BY TYPE OF ACTION AND MODIFICATION BY BEARER BY OF TYPE RISK OF ACTION AND BEARER OF RISK The share of principal reduction modifications peaked at 20 percent in December 2012 and has dropped in the past two quarters. This is to be expected, as increasing home prices have increased equity, reducing the need for principal reduction and making such modifications less likely to be net-present-value positive. Principal reduction is most likely to be done on private investor loans, followed by portfolio loans. The GSEs and FHA/VA do not allow this type of modification.

24 AGENCY ISSUANCE AGENCY GROSS AND NET ISSUANCE While newly issued agency securities (agency gross issuance) have been robust year to date, much of the issuance has been driven by refinancing. As that activity falls off with rising interest rates, we expect the volume of new issuance to fall off as well. Net issuance, which excludes repayments, prepayments, and refinances on outstanding mortgages, remains low and dominated by Ginnie Mae. This is unsurprising, given the increased role of FHA and VA during the crisis.

25 OVERVIEW OVERVIEW AGENCY ISSUANCE GROSS AND NET ISSUANCE AGENCY BY GROSS ISSUANCE AND FED PURCHASES MONTH Monthly Gross Issuance While government and GSE lending have dominated the mortgage market since the crisis, there has been a change in the mix. Ginnie Mae s share reached a peak of 28 percent of total agency issuance in 2010, and then declined; as of October, however, its share has once again reached the peak level. This reflects rising interest rates, and the subsequent transition from a refinance market to a purchase market. Ginnie Mae is a larger share of purchase activity than of refinance activity.
