CoreLogic Equity Report

CoreLogic Equity Report

REPORT NATIONAL OVERVIEW Equity Distribution Improves as Price Gains Extend from 2012 into 2013 850,000 Residential Properties Returned to Positive Equity During the First Quarter Of Residential Properties With a Mortgage, 9.7 Million Are Still in Negative Equity 19.8% OF MORTGAGED HOMES ARE UNDERWATER An analysis shows that 9.7 million, or 19.8 percent of all residential properties with a mortgage, were still in negative equity at the end of the first quarter. This compares to 10.5 million*, or 21.7 percent of all residential properties with a mortgage, at the end of 2012. Negative equity means that a borrower owes more on a home than it is worth. These properties may be referred to as underwater or upside down. NEGATIVE 8.7% IN AGGREGATE VALUE The national aggregate value of negative equity decreased $50 billion to $580 billion at the end of the first quarter. The decrease was driven in large part by improving home prices. Of the total $580 billion in negative equity, half represented first mortgages only, while the other half represented first liens with home equity loans. IF PRICES INCREASED AN ADDITIONAL 5 PERCENT, 1.6 MILLION HOMES WOULD REGAIN POSITIVE. During the past year, 1.7 million borrowers have regained positive equity. We expect the pent-up supply that falling negative equity releases will moderate price gains in many of the fast-appreciating markets this spring.

PROPERTIES WITH LESS THAN 20 PERCENT 23% OF RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES ARE UNDER-EQUITIED Borrowers with less than 20 percent home equity are referred to as under-equitied. Of the 39 million properties with positive equity, 11.2 million have less than 20 percent equity. In the first quarter, 23 percent of all properties with a mortgage were under-equitied. Underwriting constraints may make it more difficult for under-equitied borrowers to obtain new home financing. 4.4% OF RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES ARE NEAR-NEGATIVE Additionally, at the end of the first quarter, 2.1 million homes, or 4.4 percent, had less than 5 percent equity. This is referred to as near-negative equity, which puts these properties at risk should home prices fall. In the quarter, 850,000 residential properties returned to positive equity. The negative equity burden continues to recede across the country thanks largely to rising home prices. We are still far below peak home price levels, but tight supplies in many areas, coupled with continued demand for single family homes, should help us close the gap.

SNAPSHOT 67.2% AVERAGE LOAN TO VALUE 32.8% AVERAGE 88.0% OF MORE EXPENSIVE HOMES HAVE The average loan-to-value ratio for all mortgaged homes is 67.2 percent, with total mortgage debt outstanding greater than $8.6 billion. Of residential properties underwater, 1.6 million, or 3.4 percent, have a loanto-value ratio of 100 percent to 105 percent. Another 4.1 million, or 8.4 percent, have a loan-to-value ratio greater than 125 percent. In between, with 105 percent to 125 percent loan to value, are 4 million residential properties, or 8.1 percent. The average amount of equity for all properties with a mortgage is 32.8 percent, representing more than $4.2 billion. Of the 9.7 million underwater properties, 6 million, or 62 percent, have first mortgages only. With an average balance of $211,000, these borrowers are underwater $48,000 on average. An additional 3.7 million upside-down borrowers, or 38 percent, hold both first and second liens. The average balance for this group is $294,000. The average underwater amount is $79,000. Equity is concentrated at the higher end of the housing market. Just 73 percent of homes valued at less than $200,000 have equity as compared to 88 percent valued at more than $200,000. reproduced in any form without express written permission. 4

METHODOLOGY The amount of equity for each property is determined by comparing the estimated current value of the property against the mortgage debt outstanding (MDO). If the MDO is greater than the estimated value, then the property is determined to be in a negative equity position. If the estimated value is greater than the MDO, then the property is determined to be in a positive equity position. The data is first generated at the property level and aggregated to higher levels of geography. CoreLogic data includes 49 million properties with a mortgage, which accounts for more than 85 percent of all mortgages in the U.S. CoreLogic uses its public record data as the source of the MDO, which includes both first-mortgage liens and second liens and is adjusted for amortization and home equity utilization in order to capture the true level of MDO for each property. The calculations are not based on sampling, but rather on the full data set to avoid potential adverse selection due to sampling. The current value of the property is estimated using a suite of proprietary CoreLogic valuation techniques, including valuation models and the CoreLogic Home Price Index (HPI). Only data for mortgaged residential properties that have a current estimated value is included. There are several states or jurisdictions where the public record, current value or mortgage coverage is thin. These instances account for fewer than 5 percent of the total U.S. population.
