Conclusions
1. Price rises are being driven by abnormal factors:
– Low mortgage rates: Ongoing Federal Reserve bond purchases are keeping rates at historic lows.
– Constrained inventories: Negative equity and fewer distressed sales are constraining listings of existing homes.
2. Despite market recovery, key undertows remain:
– Lagging Fundamentals: Traditional housing and lending fundamentals — income, employment and household debt — continue to be weak.
– Reluctant Buyers: Increases in traditional buyers, as well as sellers, are needed to support a sustained recovery.

Conclusions
3. The housing recovery still relies on federal stimulus.
– Low mortgage rates remain critical to the restoration of positive owner equity and the mitigation of troubled loans.
– However, the Federal Reserve cannot maintain current levels of mortgage bond purchases indefinitely.
– The recovery will remain fragile until higher home prices can be sustained by economic fundamentals — i.e., rising incomes and more normal sales volumes and mortgage interest rates.
