Our amazing pent-up demand for home ownership!

1. Home formation (e.g., marriages) increasing dramatically!

2. The inflow of immigrants is rebounding strongly!

3. The population of metro Denver increases about 1.5% per year. What a great place to live!

4. People who lost homes can finally buy again!

5. Those who could buy in the downturn but didn’t are realizing the mistake they made!

6. Home prices are rising so renters don’t want to miss out forever!

7. Renters are completely getting priced out of the rental market!

8. Is legalized marijuana bringing more residents to Colorado?

Why Sellers Aren’t Selling

• Some potential move-up buyers are holding back while they weigh whether to abandon a phenomenally low interest rate on their current mortgage in order to buy a different home

• Afraid of being caught without a home when they sell.

• There’s nothing for them to buy.

• They think the up cycle is near the end.

• They don’t know they can qualify for a new home.

Lon Welsh 303-619-0633 [email protected] -26- © Your Castle, Inc. 2011

Key messages for homes. In 2013, we saw strong growth in sales price and volume. Inventory, which is tight now, will not get better (from buyer’s point of view) until at least 4Q 2014 (probably later). We expect continued moderate price increases for homes.

Metric Performance Observations

Average Home Price $

2Q13 vs. 2Q12: +12%3Q13 vs. 3Q12: +12%4Q13 vs. 4Q12: +9%1Q14 vs. 1Q13: +9%2Q14 vs. 2Q13: +8%

Prices jumped +8.5% in 2012. 2013 was up another 9%. This was driven by the lack of inventory on the low and middle range of the market. So far in 2014 prices have risen 8%. Small homes will continue, for at least one more year, to outpace most other size categories, in our view.

MOI : Months of Inventory

07/01/13: 2.0 MOI10/01/13: 1.7 MOI01/01/14: 1.4 MOI04/01/14: 1.2 MOI07/01/14: 1.7 MOI

MOI has been stable to declining for 24 months. The bottom smaller 50% of the market (homes up to 1805 sq. feet) have approximately 0.7 MOI – a very strong seller’s market. The luxury market is balanced, with 6.9 MOI for the largest 10% of homes in the Denver area. Denver still remains a strong sellers market at all price points for at least another year.

Showings per Active Listing per Month

2Q 2010: 6.92Q 2011: 9.12Q 2012: 11.62Q 2013: 14.22Q 2014: 16.9

Showings are a good leading indicator for UC… which predicts sales. Showings in 2Q14 were up from 2Q13. In 2014 the amount of new inventory is actually lower than this time last year. Showings per listing will be higher if there is less to choose from. As in 2012 and 2013, the number of “desirable” homes that are priced right will still sell rapidly with lots of showings.

Under Contract (UC)

03/31/13: 4,78106/30/13: 6,54109/30/13: 4,89703/31/14: 5,42006/30/14: 5,866

UC is the best leading indicator of sales. At the end of 2Q14, homes under contract were up 11.8% from the first half of ‘13. Showings were up, too. We anticipate 3Q14 unit volume will remain at least as strong as ’13.

Number Sold 2Q13 vs. 2Q12: +21%3Q13 vs. 3Q12: +25%4Q13 vs. 4Q12: +16%1Q14 vs. 1Q13: +8%2Q14 vs. 2Q13: +5%

2012 unit sales were +12% vs. 2011. 2013 was up +16% from 2012. Through the first half of the year, sales volume is up 6% from ‘13. Price increases have not (yet) brought extra inventory in the market. It’s inevitable that increased prices will increase inventory, but its impossible to know when. We expect to see some additional inventory in 2014.

Inventory levels continue to stay low, especially for smaller homes. This will continue to drive price increases on the low end. With prices above pre-Recession highs, essentially all sellers should be able to afford to list and sell their homes. Almost no one is “underwater” in Denver. Inventories should increase.
