NAR President Richard F. Gaylord said the current market offers immediate benefits and long-term value for many buyers. “Home buyers are getting a great deal right now,” he said. “Although inflationary expectations appear to be under control for the time being, sharper consumer price gains could lead to notably higher mortgage interest rates in 2009.”

Based on current indicators, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is forecast to rise gradually to 6.5 percent by the end of this year, and then hold at that level for most of next year.

Total home sales (including single-family homes and condominiums) were up 3.6 percent in June to 11,643 sales compared to May’s 11,243 sales. Year-over-year sales were down 27 percent from June 2007’s 15,945 sales. Illinois’ June median price was $200,000, down 6.1 percent from $213,000 in June 2007.

“There continues to be large local market variations statewide,” said Kay Wirth, president of the Illinois Association of REALTORS. “Economic factors have weighed heavily on home sales activity in Illinois this summer. Low consumer confidence, higher gas and good prices, plus turmoil in the financial markets and a tighter credit market have kept some would-be buyers on the sidelines despite the fact there are great deals to be had,”

The REALTORS’ group also reported that the monthly average commitment rate for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage for the North Central region was 6.38 percent in June 2008, up 0.34 points from the 6.04 average rate the previous month. Those stats are according to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. Last June the rate averaged 6.69 percent.
