MONTHLY EXPENSE
Phoenix-area rents are rising along with home prices It’s no wonder that so many renters are buying homes in metro Phoenix. ¶ The cost of renting a Valley house or condo is up $150 a month from early 2016. ¶ And despite the thousands of units under construction in the Phoenix area, the average rent for apartments is up almost $50 a month from last year. ¶ And those increases come after even bigger ones in 2015-16. ¶ Real-estate agents often tell me one of the top reasons Millennials are buying now is rising rents. ¶ Also, boomerang buyers — people who lost houses to foreclosure during the crash — are purchasing again to try to hedge the Valley’s rising rents.

The median price to rent a Valley home or condo climbed to almost $1,400 in August. That compares with about $1,250 in January 2016, reports ARMLS.

6 ways to build your home equity (and savings) at much faster pace MARILYN LEWIS NERDWALLET
A home purchase brings together so many things under one roof: dreams, shelter, status, maybe a passport to better schools and neighborhoods. And one more thing: It gives you a forced savings account. It does that by letting you build home equity, which is the difference between your home’s market value and what you owe on it. Your equity increases with each house payment you make. When home prices rise, your equity grows faster as your home’s value increases. Stockpiling home equity gives many savers an exceptional feeling of satisfaction. Those forced savings also are a mighty resource to tap if you’re hit with an unexpected expense or want a boost on one of life’s milestones, like helping a kid through college or upgrading the home. For these big life expenses, you can draw on your equity with a home equity loan or line of credit. The secret is moderation. Remember, building equity is often worthwhile, but you need to keep your financial life in balance by responsibly paying off debt, saving for retirement and being ready for emergencies. To step on the gas and speed up the growth of equity, you’ve got two main tools: You can increase the home’s value or reduce the mortgage debt. Or both. Here are six tips to help you build home equity: 1. Make a big, fat down payment Get equity from the start with a larger
down payment, since that is instant equity. Put down 20% or more of the property’s value for a bonus: You’ll avoid pricey private mortgage insurance. 2. Get a 15-year mortgage Talk about forced savings. Taking out a 15-year mortgage, or refinancing into one from a 30-year loan, piles on the equity — and at a lower interest rate. You’ll save plenty on the total interest, too, because you pay interest for less time. But remember, there’s a catch: Your monthly payments are higher with a 15-year home loan. 3. Improve the property Some remodeling and improvement projects boost a home’s equity. But not all do. The average payback on common upgrades is 64 cents for each dollar spent, according to Remodeling magazine’s research. And that’s if the home sells within a year. Smaller projects — adding attic insulation, replacing a garage door or front entry door — do better at increasing equity, especially if you pay with cash instead of via a loan. 4. Pay more on your mortgage Paying more can be a good option. If you decide to do this, make sure the extra money is applied to your mortgage principal. Ask your mortgage servicer (you can find the phone number on your monthly statement) how to do it and watch your monthly statements to be sure the money is credited correctly. Here are ways to pay more regularly: » Add an extra sum to your monthly payment. Pick an amount big enough to make a difference but not so big that it crimps your budget. For example, if
Rents Continued from Page 1R
The numbers
your payment is $983, round up to $1,100, and then increase the amount when you’re able. » Another version of adding to your monthly payment: Boost the payment by an amount equal to a twelfth of a payment. By the year’s end, you’ll have made an extra payment. » Switch to biweekly mortgage payments. Paying every two weeks instead of monthly adds one extra monthly payment to your mortgage annually. » Schedule extra payments automatically from your bank to your mortgage account at regular intervals 5. Use gifts, bonuses and windfalls If you don’t want the commitment that comes with a 15-year mortgage or increasing the size of your payment, look for cash that dribbles in here and there. Holiday and birthday gift cards? Convert them to cash and add it to your mortgage. Dedicate overtime pay, bonuses or every other bonus to building equity. Cash gifts? Ditto. If you are fortunate enough to inherit money, use at least part of it to pay down the mortgage. Your mortgage servicer can tell you how to add dribs and drabs or a big windfall to your equity. As before, make certain the money goes toward the principal, not interest. 6. Earmark one partner’s salary Couples who want to bump up equity in a hurry sometimes take the route of living on one salary while committing the other person’s paychecks to paying down the mortgage. The belt-tightening can be demanding but the rewards can be extreme.
» The number of metro Phoenix home sales reached 8,113 through August of this year. That’s up 3.4 percent from last year, according to the Arizona Regional Multiple Listing Service. » The median price to rent a Valley home or condo climbed to almost $1,400 in August. That compares with about $1,250 in January 2016, reports ARMLS. » The average rent for all Phoenixarea apartments is now $1,012, according to Phoenix-based ABI Multifamily. That compares with $970 a year ago. Apartment rents by Valley city: » Scottsdale: $1,302, up from $1,248 a year ago. » Tempe: $1,221, up from $1,168. » Phoenix: $930, up from $886. » Mesa: $904, up from $858.
Rents aren’t only thing climbing Homebuyers in the Valley are also dealing with higher monthly payments. Metro Phoenix’s median home price is up about 7 percent from last year, to $245,000. Valley home-price increases did moderate a bit during the past few months, something that could give homebuyers a bit of a breather from rising prices. Apartment-rent increases in areas with the most new developments — Phoenix, Scottsdale and Tempe — could also wane in the coming months if supply outpaces demand. But as the weather turns cooler, metro Phoenix’s housing and rental markets always heat up.

Question: Who is
Editor’s note:
responsible for paying the plumber for replacing a leaky pipe connection behind the drywall ceiling on the ground level of a 2-story condo unit? The Owner or tenant?
Readers who have non-emergency, general landlord-tenant, fair housing or multi-housing real estate questions can mail them to:

Visiting family living in an age-restricted community Fall holidays and the upcoming winter holiday season means that families will hit the road to visit grandparents and extended family in better climates, like ours. For these week-long or extended vacations, there can be a new set of visitors to rental communities that create questions and issues about rules and usage of amenities and the property. During a visit, the renter is responsible for their guests and their behavior in the
community. Before your guests come to visit, take a few minutes to review the rules so you understand them and share the guidelines with your guests. The rules will help protect your guests and support the rights of the other residents. It will help make their visit more fun if they know how and when they can enjoy your community’s features. For those living in an age-restricted community, it’s important to review the rules and lease restrictions for visiting
friends and family. Age-restricted communities are popular among many Arizona residents. They offer unique, specialized amenities and housing styles that meet the needs of those over 55 and much more. When family comes to visit, it’s a great time to enjoy all of the community amenities available like swimming pools, parks, fishing ponds, and fitness facilities. Some communities restrict the times that young children can use amenities like the fitness center and pools. Resi-
dents may get preference on sport courts reservations and golf tee times over guests. Some communities require that the resident accompany their guests when using these amenities. These rules protect those permanent residents, both owners and renters, and the lifestyle that they pay to enjoy. The Arizona Multihousing Association is the statewide trade association for the apartment industry, representing more than 2,000 members in legislative, legal and regulatory matters.
