Prices of homes in the U.S. climbed in June and is estimated to increase to more recent signs of recovery in the housing market, according to data on Tuesday showed CoreLogic.
Index CoreLogic home price climbed 1.9 percent from May and accelerated by 11.9 percent since June last year.
Excluding complex sales, prices were slightly stronger, rising 1.8 percent in the month and 11 percent from June 2012.
Complex sales are those in which the lender allows a homeowner in trouble selling the house for less than the value of the outstanding mortgage.
The acceleration in prices from a year ago was in line with the report closely watched S & P / Case-Shiller, which showed that prices rose 12.2 percent year on year in May.
CoreLogic's report predicted more gains for the housing market, and estimated that prices will rise 1.8 percent in July. That would imply an increase of 12.5 percent.
"The U.S. housing market experienced strong price appreciation in the first half of 2013 and our forecast indicates a double-digit growth by July," said CoreLogic CEO Anand Nallathambi said in a statement.
The recovery in the housing sector has gained pace this year, with tight supply driving prices upward. However, higher interest rates on mortgages involve a potential problem if they cause fear and exit from the market of potential buyers.

The housing bubble in the United States has become
It's just my opinion, but both markets are moving in the direction you should move . The bag seems to go down and gold up. And if that's what you want to do, who am I to be contrary ?
But for today , let's focus on the real estate market in the world's largest economy . Where is the housing market headed?
" The Miami area is exploding ," says a friend who I visited yesterday.
"I live in Key Biscayne and the price of homes has risen 20 % over the last year in my neighborhood. It's like before the crisis. "
" Everyone speaks Spanish , so I thought the new tenants would come from Colombia and Mexico . But it is quite the opposite. Those most buy are the Russians , followed by the French. I guess the Russians have much money. As for the French, Miami sure is cheap compared to Paris. "
" The third largest group of buyers are Brazilians. It seems they also have a lot of money and as everybody knows here , Miami is the best place in America to live if you are Latin American . "
"Argentines are fourth. They come to Miami because they believe that Argentina 's economy is heading for a new crisis. They may be right about this. "
The price of real estate has returned to the front . Cement and brick seems to have traced the flight across the country.
In Miami , the market is led by foreigners. In Long Island ( New York ), large buyers come from Wall Street. As reported by the New York Times :
More ... no sure sign that the waste that characterized the pre-crisis stage has returned to the Hamptons that many blue signs "Constructions Farrell " multiply in the landscape, along with multimillion dollar homes advertised. It is a process that they call " Farrellización " , not just joy .
" We are busier than ever," said Joe Farrell, President of Farrell stuctures ...
With a customer base consisting mainly of bankers on Wall Street , Mr. Farrell has more than 20 new homes under construction or ready to be built. This makes it the largest builder in the area. And plan to do more , many of these luxury homes even before the buyer is located.
What do you think about this Robert Shiller housing boom ?
" The real estate market is a market with bullish and bearish cycles cycles " told CNBC, " and now is the time to buy."
But " none of this is real, the market has become very speculative."
California has risen and fallen like a roller coaster for decades, but not going towards anything. That is what we have become markets , driven by irrational exuberance .
" For the long term buyer , the fact that prices go up means nothing because even arises sell."
The newspaper The Wall Street Journal , meanwhile, has focused the same story with a negative angle .
"The return of McMansion " he reported, " is conditioned by the rules of which are tightening credit to those who purchase their primary residence ."
The latter do not have much money or a solid credit history . The builders prefer to build for a client with older and richer. Why? Because that 's where the real money .
Downtown Baltimore , meanwhile, seems to resist the latest trends in the U.S. housing market. In real terms , the price of housing has fallen in the last 80 years. But even ' Charm City ' seems to have gained the real estate train. Recently, we found some bargains and some surprisingly robust buyers.
When my wife and I went back there after 18 years in Europe, we seek a small apartment in the heart of the city. We buy and renew . Then we realized that we needed a new bigger house. Although we had no children, there was always someone to visit.
And most importantly , we did not like living in an apartment, at least not in Baltimore. Our building had a doorman, a meeting of neighbors, etc. . We could not get along with everyone !
So we decided to sell the apartment . We hope thereby suffer losses after toil away so much money to renew it. But surprisingly a buyer appeared almost immediately , willing to pay a good price for our home.
Even in Baltimore , the housing market was booming. I imagine it .

Bill Bonner.

The smallest apartment in New York: 9m2 around 1,000 euros per month
Only 9m2. For the size it would appear that we are talking about a bathroom but in reality it is a full apartment in New york, the smallest of the entire city. Its dimensions are similar to those of a cell in any prison, except that here the incarceration costs 942 euros per month and does not include food.
The apartment is in a building in Harlem, at 14 Covent Avenue and has been for rent since signing Douglas Elliman. Among the features of the notice the light and space "generous" cabinet stands. "The study is small, clean and is renovated," says the description.
If a few months ago were criticized the microapartamentos promoted by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, between 20 and 35 m2, this new offering is a step further in the new trend of living in small matchboxes.

Mortgage crisis in the U.S. is just: foreclosures fall to seven-year low
The housing crisis that began six years ago in the U.S. is coming to an end after foreclosures come down to its lowest in nearly seven years in November.
According to a report from RealtyTrac , 113,454 default notices , auction and recovery, a drop of 15 % compared to October were sent. The figure represents the lowest level since December 2006.
The firm explained that 52.826 processes however , the slowest pace since December 2005 began.
"While some of the decline can be attributed to seasonality, the depth and breadth of the fall delivery is strong evidence that we are entering the last part of this crisis," said Daren Blomquist , vice president of RealtyTrac .
"In a year , all this will end ," he told Bloomberg Kenneth Rosen , chairman of the Fisher Center for Urban Economics and Real Estate at the University of California at Berkeley.
Sales up
Meanwhile, the discounts before the holidays boosted retail sales in November.
The Commerce Department reported yesterday that purchases 0.7 % , the fastest pace since June increased after a 0.6 % advance in October. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg and Reuters had expected sales , which represent about 30 % of consumer spending , will experience an increase of 0.6 %.
Calls core sales, which exclude autos, food services, gasoline and building materials , rose 0.5 % after increasing 0.7 % adjusted for the previous month.
This suggests that household spending will likely rebound from the worst performance in nearly four years recorded in the third quarter .
"We are getting a tailwind by lower gasoline prices , winds significant tail for greater wealth through stocks and real estate and last but certainly not least , an acceleration in wages ," said Bloomberg Joseph LaVorgna , chief U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank. "We're going in the right direction."
lower deficit
Meanwhile , the budget deficit narrowed more than expected in November as higher employment and rising incomes encouraged markets to a record high for the month.
Fiscal revenue rose 12.8 % from October to U.S. $ 182,500 million , while spending fell 4.8% to U.S. $ 317,700 million, according to the Treasury Department . As a result , the gap was U.S. $ 135,200 million , lower than the $ 140 billion projected .
Thus, in the first two months of fiscal 2014, the deficit reached U.S. $ 226,800 million, compared to U.S. $ 291,100 million for the same period last year.

6 Reasons why investment property real estate in Florida
I invite you to take the next few minutes to learn the truth about the real estate market , how it compares with other methods the advantages and why it is such a lucrative form of investment . Many potential investors will say , " I need to get into the property market investment FLORIDA " , especially considering the current stock market fluctuations and the HOT market for investment properties , but simply do not know the facts about Orlando property investing and how to use the method of sale and leaseback property management .
When the last time the financial adviser or your broker tried to convince you that moving a portion of your assets to purchase investment property in Florida is a good idea ? Never right ? " Why " is simple . Not earn commissions when you buy investment property in Florida . It is also likely that you probably have never had a comparison of "apples to apples " stocks against Florida Investment Property quite like the one you see here .
Reason 1 :
Strength: Banks characteristics loan money will not buy stocks . The banks , however , to compete hard in loan money to buy investment property in Florida . The first question should be, " why is this ?" We have to do with risk management , which we will discuss later . The fact that banks want to loan you money to buy Florida Investment Property creates a situation that would call POWER .
Suppose you have $ 10,000 to put in some type of investment. If you choose to buy $ 10,000 worth of stocks, you own just the $ 10,000 of stock . Pretty simple. However , suppose you choose to invest this $ 10000 investment property in Florida using a 90 % mortgage (which in many cases can go up to 95-100 % mortgages in today's market ) , you will own the $ 100,000 investment property in Florida . If both of your investments were to appreciate by 10 % , the actual gain with your stocks would be $ 1000 where your actual gain with Florida Investment Property would be $ 10,000. This equates to a real return on investment of 10% against a 100 % return on investment. That's what we call power.
Strength: Real Estate of Florida vs. stocks
The traditional argument against Florida Investment Property Investing (mainly from stock brokers ) was always " I can take an average of 10 % of stocks with little effort so why would you invest in property investment by Orlando believes that only 6 - 7% ANNUALLY ? " This view does not take into account the strength figuring .
If you take the above statement to be true and to compare ACTUAL numbers, stock investment gained 10% of the initial $ 10,000 value (or $ 1000 ) and Property Investment Investment Orlando won 6% of the original $ 100,000 value ( or $ 6000) . This is still a real return of 10% vs. 60 % . It is difficult to see which investment provides a greater immediate return on investment. Moreover , these numbers do not take into account any income from your property during the year , or essential tax advantages to owning property , which we will discuss later .
Reason 2 :
Value : As mentioned previously , if you invest $ 10,000 in buying stocks , you own $ 10,000 in stocks ( a fairly obvious point ) . If you invest $ 10,000 in the purchase of investment property in Orlando using the power of a 90 % mortgage , you own $ 100,000 investment property right of Orlando ; Well , only if you paid retail for your property . Any savvy investor will tell you that there are excellent deals available in Orlando investment property , you just need to find them .
What if you bought a $ 100000 property happened to be worth $ 110,000 the day you bought ? Happens The answer is yes , all the time . If you keep your eyes open and you're willing to " go through the numbered " to find the good deals are all around you . You may ask yourself , why would anybody sell a $ 110,000 property for $ 100,000 ?
Value : Making money when you buy.
The reasons are endless as to why a quick sale is desired, but just to name a few : job relocation , divorce , an estate established or perhaps a current evaluation of the property simply was not before the sale. By " finding this NEGOTIATION " have completed two things .
You have added $ 10,000 to your asset column in the form of justice .
You create extra strength for you as the value of your property increases ( a gain of 6.10 % to $ 110 thousand is better than a gain of 10.6 % to $ 100 thousand ! ) Remember , you make money in Orlando investment property when you buy , not when you sell .
Reason 3 :
Control: Take our hypothesis one step further . When you buy the $ 10,000 worth of stocks , what can you do to increase its value ? If we follow the previous assumption , you have invested $ 10,000 using a mortgage 90 % to buy a property $ 100 000 that has a real value of $ 110000 because " found too . " So what can you do to further increase the value of new property $ 110,000 you ?
It's amazing what a cleaning , just to adorn and a paint job can do to increase the value of a property . Only a few hundred dollars well spent can lead to huge profits of the investment property of Orlando . The property $ 110 000 with a little effort could easily be worth $ 115 thousand , $ 120 thousand or more practically overnight ! You have to do any of this work yourself ? Absolutely not if you want to do that sort of thing then have at it, but if not, simply hire done and accept the slightly lower net profit.
Reason 4 :
Higher tax situation : Tax code in the United States linked to reward investors who make housing and other property available to the population . When you invest in stocks , tax in some of the highest rates in the tax code . When you invest in property investment by Orlando , undergoing one of the best tax positions in the business world . Remember the wealthy that hold substantial portions of their assets in property investment by Orlando ? Tax advantages are one of the main reasons this is true .
Continuing with the above example , say that you have completed " their trading you" with $ 10,000 invested with a 90 % to mortgage to buy the property $ 100,000 assessed for $ 110000 (because they " found a lot " ) , which have improved to say, $ 115 000 to the cost of other $ 1000 in cleaning etc. assume that one year passes and the property investment market in Orlando rose by 6 % , your property would be worth $ 122 000 now . so far, so good right ? If you're like most people, you may want to spend some of your hard earned money .
Do the numbers. Have a mortgage at current rates that started at $ 90,000 and after a year's worth of payments (the majority of which is tax deductible ) you still owe approximately $ 89,000 . However , your property is now worth about $ 122,000 . If you were to refinance at 90 % once again , would you take out a new mortgage of about $ 110000 . This will leave you with about $ 21,000 in cash in your pocket . Now , the big question you have to pay tax on that money ? Absolutely Not it sell the property or you have made a "master GAIN " . You just borrow money from you . You are able to do what you want with that money , free of any tax. Obviously , a good strategy is to buy two more properties just like the first your deal !
Also , we have not taken into account the fact that all payments of interest in this property are tax deductible . In addition , you are also able to underestimate the same property and all its contents for additional tax advantages if you choose to do so .
Be fair and compare the tax position of the Orlando property investment scenario with stocks. Assume that the initial stock investment $ 10,000 increased by 10 % in the first year , creating a profit of $ 1,000 and wish to have access to it . If you drag it out , you will pay from 20 to 28 % (or higher) in capital gains tax in order to gain access to this money . This reduces your net profit to $ 800 ( actual 8% ) or less, depending on the tax situation. Compare that to Orlando Investment Property and start to get the picture.
Reason 5 :
Limit your exposure to risk
Risk Management : Do you remember when we said at the top that banks would compete hard in loan you money in Orlando Investment Property ? Answering " why" is very simple. Low risk . Banks suffer little if any risk when loaning money on Orlando Investment Property due to stable, solid market growth rate properties , as well as the fact that if you defaulted on your payments will simply sell the property to another . This is in direct contrast to the volatile stock market, which can vary daily with sharp increases and decreases in value . Furthermore , banks realize that a property is not going anywhere , and many investors know all too well about the com and other types of businesses that were there yesterday and today .
This is all not to say that buying investment property in Orlando is not going down periodically , however the dips are much less dramatic than can be held in stock , turns out that the willingness of banks to loan money to property .
Reason 6 :
Protecting peace of mind .
Finally , now that we understand the value of strength and risk management realize that a profit of 6% Investment Property Orlando " beats the pants off " a stock gain 10% real return on investment by a wide margin (about 50 % , not taking into account various factors that can increase this number such as tax advantages , income on property etc. ... ) owning good , solid Orlando investment Property allows you to sleep at night, or going on extended vacation without worrying about column of your assets . This is directly opposed to holding a substantial percentage of your assets in stocks.
When the last time the financial adviser or your broker tried to convince you that moving a portion of your assets to purchase investment property in Florida is a good idea ? Never right ? " Why " is simple . Not earn commissions when you buy investment property in Florida . It is also likely that you probably have never had a comparison of "apples to apples " stocks against Florida Investment Property quite like the one you see here .
Reason 1 :
Strength: Banks characteristics loan money will not buy stocks . The banks , however , to compete hard in loan money to buy investment property in Florida .

Continuing with the above example , say that you have completed " their trading you" with $ 10,000 invested with a 90 % to mortgage to buy the property $ 100,000 assessed for $ 110000 (because they " found a lot " ) , which have improved to say, $ 115 000 to the cost of other $ 1000 in cleaning etc. assume that one year passes and the property investment market in Orlando rose by 6 % , your property would be worth $ 122 000 now . so far, so good right ? If you're like most people, you may want to spend some of your hard earned money .
Do the numbers. Have a mortgage at current rates that started at $ 90,000 and after a year's worth of payments (the majority of which is tax deductible ) you still owe approximately $ 89,000 . However , your property is now worth about $ 122,000 . If you were to refinance at 90 % once again , would you take out a new mortgage of about $ 110000 . This will leave you with about $ 21,000 in cash in your pocket . Now , the big question you have to pay tax on that money ? Absolutely Not it sell the property or you have made a "master GAIN " . You just borrow money from you . You are able to do what you want with that money , free of any tax. Obviously , a good strategy is to buy two more properties just like the first your deal !
Also , we have not taken into account the fact that all payments of interest in this property are tax deductible . In addition , you are also able to underestimate the same property and all its contents for additional tax advantages if you choose to do so .
Be fair and compare the tax position of the Orlando property investment scenario with stocks. Assume that the initial stock investment $ 10,000 increased by 10 % in the first year , creating a profit of $ 1,000 and wish to have access to it . If you drag it out , you will pay from 20 to 28 % (or higher) in capital gains tax in order to gain access to this money . This reduces your net profit to $ 800 ( actual 8% ) or less, depending on the tax situation. Compare that to Orlando Investment Property and start to get the picture.
Reason 5 :
Limit your exposure to risk
Risk Management : Do you remember when we said at the top that banks would compete hard in loan you money in Orlando Investment Property ? Answering " why" is very simple. Low risk . Banks suffer little if any risk when loaning money on Orlando Investment Property due to stable, solid market growth rate properties , as well as the fact that if you defaulted on your payments will simply sell the property to another . This is in direct contrast to the volatile stock market, which can vary daily with sharp increases and decreases in value . Furthermore , banks realize that a property is not going anywhere , and many investors know all too well about the com and other types of businesses that were there yesterday and today .
This is all not to say that buying investment property in Orlando is not going down periodically , however the dips are much less dramatic than can be held in stock , turns out that the willingness of banks to loan money to property .
Reason 6 :
Protecting peace of mind .
Finally , now that we understand the value of strength and risk management realize that a profit of 6% Investment Property Orlando " beats the pants off " a stock gain 10% real return on investment by a wide margin (about 50 % , not taking into account various factors that can increase this number such as tax advantages , income on property etc. ... ) owning good , solid Orlando investment Property allows you to sleep at night, or going on extended vacation without worrying about column of your assets . This is directly opposed to holding a substantial percentage of your assets in stocks.
