Here We Go Again – More IBM LayoffsHow Will It Affect The Real Estate Market?

by Bill Walsh,

Mortgage Originator

Mid Hudson Valley

Federal Credit Union

It seems like I just covered thistopic in this past Summer’s articleand I have to write about it again.I thought the massive layoffs lastSeptember would be the last fora long time but I thought wrong,very wrong. It looks like IBM isscrambling to come up with anew list of employees to be laidoff. Febuary 26th, 2014 is thedate IBM has placed for the em-ployees to know.We don’t knowif they will be given a few monthsnotice or if Febuary 26th is theirlast day. What will it do to theprices of homes that are listedor will be listed on the market?There will be more homes be-ing listed but will it drive pricesdown or will they remain stable.I enlisted two seasoned Real Es-tate professionals to give theiropinion on what will happen inthe near future.

The continued layoffs of IBMwill impact our local market. Nomatter how justified the reasonsare, the effects of these layoffs af-fect people’s overall standard ofliving. In regards to the Real Es-tate market in Durchess County,those needing to seek employ-ment may not find it in the sur-rounding area. The outcome willbe more homes brought to mar-ket. This is a major concern be-

cause it will create higher inven-tory therefore lowering prices.It is a simple case of supply anddemand.This is advantageous to cur-

rent buyers because they will bein a position to capitalize on thismarket, however, for those sell-ers preparing their homes forthe Spring market, it may be a bitdisconcerting. Layoffs have be-come a way of life for businessesas they struggle to survive inthe global market and DutchessCounty has become only toofamiliar with it.

Our area continues to respondto economic threats. The pro-posed IBM layoffs are one morechallenge to add to our history.Dutchess County offers a won-derful quality of life, geographi-cally located between New YorkCity and Albany, close to airportsand trains, which makes it advan-tageous to conduct business.Wehave plenty of natural resoursesand historical features that at-tracts tourists. Our workforce isskilled with many coming fromour higher education institu-tions and technical schools. TheReal Estate market is slowly get-ting stronger and showing steadygrowth. The potential layoffsmay not have an immediate im-pact on our market unless theseemployees have overextendedthemselves as many did in the1990’s and need to sell quickly.We may see a small increase inlistings coming on the market in6-12 months from now when

the unemployment benefits runout, a possible result of financialhardship or relocation.I asked Kim what will be the

results on the market prices. Shesaid “I think they will stay wherethey are now”.As I said before, last Summer I

wrote on the same topic. I hadtwo seasoned Realtors, BrianWoolsey and Joe Pettinella givetheir opinion on what wouldhappen to the Real Estate mar-ket with the September 2013IBM layoffs. They were in agree-ment that the market was at thattime strong enough to absorbthe increase of inventory causedby people moving out of thearea. They said the home priceswould have gone up because ofa strong market but would nowbe stable with the Septemberlayoffs. Let’s look at some dataon detached single family homes,supplied by Sandy Tambone ofthe Mid Hudson Multiple Listing.

Oct 2012 Oct 2013 % changeClosed Sales 108 151 +39YTD avg sale price $311,040 $297,830 -4.2Avg days on market 147 132 10.0Available listings 1891 1996 +5.6

Nov 2012 Nov 2013 % changeClosed Sales 144 132 -8.3YTD avg. sale price $341,158 $309,524 -9.3Avg days on market 145 130 -10.2Available listings 1815 1933 +6.5

Dec 2012 Dec 2013 % changeClosed sales 163 168 +3.1YTD avg sale price $323,640 $317,991 -1.7Avg days on market 146 129 -11.7Available listings 1684 1802 +7.0

Our panel from Septemberwere not too far off the markcompared to the previous year.The average time on the mar-ket went down by about -10%which means there are buyersout there and homes are sellingfaster. Inventory on homes wentup 6.4% and you know whathappens when there are morehomes competing for the buyer,

you got it, the price comes down.The average sales price for thethree months came down 5.1%,almost even to the increase ofinventory.If we have a new increase of

inventory due to the IBM lay-offs, the past says we should seea decrease in home prices. Thiswill create a great opportunityfor buyers to get a good deal. A5.1% decrease in prices doesn’tmake it a buyers market but youwill see more homes coming onthe market competing for yourattention and your dollars.To reach back to January’s ar-

ticle on the new laws enacted onJan 10th, New York State Deptof Financing continues to makeexceptions to the FHA mort-gage insurance fees driving upthe APR to the point it becomesa “high cost” loan that New Yorkdeems as illegal.As I thought, Fannie Mae and

Freddie Mac withdrew theirnew batch of fees (based onyour credit score and yourdown payment) that were togo into effect on April 1st ofthis year. These new fees wouldhave caused much higher clos-ing costs which contradicted thenews rules that the ConsumerFinancial Protection Bureau putinto effect Jan 10th. Lenders arestill feeling their way betweenthe new Dodd/Frank bill, NewYork’s rulings and Fannie Mae& Freddie Mac’s guidelines. Af-fordable mortgage programs forfirst time buyers like SONYMA,are not affected by any of thesenew laws. It will become a verypopular mortgage program. I willbe conducting seminars on thisprogram in the near future butremember it is for 1st time buy-ers or veterans. Veterans don’thave to be a 1st time buyer.

(BPT) - Looking for ways to switch up your style this year? From the right

patterns and colors to impressive accents, the latest home design trends

will keep your space looking fresh and fabulous in 2014.

“Now more than ever, homeowners are willing to experiment with

design,” says Taniya Nayak, interior designer and DIY television personality.

“The start of the new year is the perfect time

to add character and personality with unique

details, patterns and pops of color.”

Here are the top five home decor trends

Nayak predicts will make a big impact in 2014:

•Painteddetail onfurniturepiecesA hot trend in 2014 is to

bring flea-market furni-

ture back to life with

painted patterns and

details.“Refurbishing old

furniture pieces is a popular - and

Five hot decorating trends to makeyour home interiors pop

easy - look to achieve,” says Nayak.“All you need is a little bit of paint and a

lot of creativity.”

New pre-cut, patterned painter’s tape makes this simple project much

easier. FrogTape Shape Tape is available in three of the most on-trend

patterns: chevron,wave and scallop. Before painting, simply apply the tape

in the desired pattern on a hand-me-down or thrift store find to create a

custom piece for your home. Plus, since Shape Tape is treated with patent-

ed PaintBlock Technology, you’ll create super-sharp lines and help prevent

paint bleed.

• White hotWhite is a mainstay in home design. It’s timeless, classic and extremely

versatile. In 2014, try pairing white with different textures, like natural wood.

You’ll create a unique focal point while highlighting other warm features in

the room, as well.“Another method is to create contrast with white. Use a

single, bold accent color, like yellow, fuchsia or navy, to move your eye across

the space,” Nayak recommends. By simply rethinking how to use white,

your home will be a warm and inviting haven all year long.

• What’s old is new again: vin-tage detailsYou can create a home filled with vintage details, regardless of the age of

your house. In 2014, try using muted color palettes, like gray, taupe or cer-

tain shades of green or rose, and industrial accents to transform its appear-

ance.“Incorporating pieces of distressed wood will also add to the overall

vintage effect,” adds Nayak.“You can create this look - even with pristine

lumber - by adding nicks and scrapes to the surface with a heavy metal

chain and a hammer.Once you’ve added the desired amount of distress,

cover the wood with a dark stain.Quickly wipe away, allowing the color to

settle into the imperfections.” Whether it’s displayed prominently as a focal

point, or used sparingly on accent pieces, distressed wood elements will

help tie the vintage trend together.

• Masculine meets feminine“Merging styles to make the entire family happy is not always easy,” says

blend both masculine and feminine components into your home design.

“Combining two styles doesn’t mean the end result will be safe or boring.

There are a number of creative solutions that will satisfy everyone’s tastes

while making an impressive design statement.” Try painting a design on a

wood floor. This technique allows the raw,masculine features of the wood

to show through,while introducing a feminine overlay of patterns or colors.

Popular patterns include quatrefoil, herringbone and modern floral designs.

• Metallic finishes and accents

Using metallic accents creates the perfect finishing touch in any room of

the house.“The right accessories, like eye-catching metallic,make any space

look and feel complete,” says Nayak. In 2014, the hottest finishes include

brass and antiqued mirrors: both add depth, light and just enough sheen to

make accents feel extra special. Best of all, there are a number of quick and

easy DIY projects you can complete to bring this trend into your home.

One is to spray paint branches silver or gold and then pop them in a vase -

it will add instant glamour and help your home design shine well into in the

new year.

“Don’t be afraid to mix and match the latest trends to reflect your per-

sonal style,” adds Nayak.“With the right on-trend elements and a dose of

character, you’ll transform your house into a home fit for the new year.”
