Looking back at Q3 housing activity, it's no secret we've been experiencing a "rough patch" as described by Fannie Mae's latest edition of Economic Developers. And although there were some signs of recovery, 18.9% gain in new home sales in September, the increase was not enough of a push to bring about a positive Q3. To worsen matters, leading indicators are showing the rough patch experienced in Q3 may be spilling into Q4; average monthly purchase mortgage applications dropped in October for the third time in four months, total mortgage originations are down 12% from 2016 and originations will fall by another 5%.
