A while back, I was invited by the Long Island Chapter of the Appraisal Institute [2] to keynote for their winter dinner/seminar tonight in Westbury, Long Island:
LI Housing Market: Transitioning from “Recovery” to “Recovered” [3]
It’ll be great to catch up with my friends and colleagues and I always love to talk appraisalspeak for extended periods of time.
The presentation will cover (2 CE credits):
Long Island Market Reports, Key Trends, Drivers of the Current Residential Market, Fiscal Cliff, Pent-Up Demand, Record Low Inventory, Mortgage Rates, Federal Reserve, Transitioning to a Sustainable Long Term Housing Market Recovery
In a question and answer period, discussion will include Snapshot of the Long Island Housing market, including 4Q 2013 market research results in Long Island, Hamptons and the North Fork; Affordability, What is driving Sales Activity?; The relationship between Sales and Prices – Why is inventory low?; Spike in Mortgage Rates; Federal Reserve taper miscommunication; Why are Housing Prices Rising?; Long Island and Manhattan real estate economy, Credit Issues, Lending, Market Trends, Impacts, and Challenges in Year 2014.
The latest Nor’easter [4] is supposed to start at about 2AM so it looks like we’ll get this done just under the wire!
