"Given that tappable equity continues to grow – $1723 trillion as of Q3 2019 – and the continued headwinds facing the HELOC (home equity line of credit) market, this is a segment lenders and servicers may likely focus on in coming months," said Ben Graboske, president of Black Knight Data and Analytics.
|
|
"While rising rates tend to dampen utilization of equity in general, the market is poised for a strong shift toward HELOCs, as they allow borrowers to take advantage of growing equity while holding on to historically low first-lien interest rates," said Ben Graboske, executive vice president of Black Knight Data & Analytics.
|
|
"The increase is primarily a function of the overall growth in purchase lending, but, after nearly four consecutive years of declines, low down payment loans have ticked upward in market share over the past 18 months as well," said Ben Graboske, executive vice president at Black Knight Data & Analytics, in a recent note.
|
|
"Given that we saw over $550 billion in tapable equity growth last year alone, this equates to borrowers only tapping into 15 percent of the growth in equity over the past 12 months, without even touching the $4.5 trillion balance in tappable equity available," said Ben Graboske, executive vice president of Black Knight Data & Analytics.
|
|
"While purchase originations jumped more than 50 percent from Q1, refinances saw only an eight percent increase over that period, and were actually down from the same time last year, despite the number of potential refinance candidates outpacing 2015 by over one million in every month since March," said Ben Graboske, vice president at Black Knight Data & Analytics.
|
|
"Lower rates have also increased the buying power for prospective homebuyers looking to purchase the average-priced home by the equivalent of 15%, meaning that they could effectively buy $45,000 'more house' while still keeping their payments the same as they would have been last fall," said Ben Graboske, president of Black Knight Data and Analytics.
|
|
"If rates go up 50 basis points from where they are now, 2.1 million borrowers will fall out of the running; a 0003-basis-point increase would eliminate another million, leaving only 2 million potential refinance candidates, the lowest population of refinance candidates in recent history," said Ben Graboske, senior vice president at Black Knight Data & Analytics.
|
|

Interest rates are expected to move even higher in the next few months, but even if they were to stay exactly where they are today, and home prices rise at the rate they have been, income levels would have to rise by about 5 percent annually, which is possible but unlikely, just to maintain the current level of affordability throughout 2017, according to Black Knight.
|
|
That added about 1.5 million borrowers to the pool of those who might be able to qualify for and benefit from a refinance, according to Black Knight, which defines refinance candidates as 30-year mortgage holders with a maximum 80% loan-to-value ratio and credit scores of 720 or higher, who could shave at least 0.75% off their current first lien rate by refinancing.
|
|
"The last time rates were at this level, cash-out withdrawals as a share of available equity were more than 25 percent above where they were in Q4 2018, suggesting we could see a noticeable rebound in homeowners tapping available equity via cash-out refis in coming months given the increased rate incentive to do so," said Ben Graboske, executive vice president of data and analytics at Black Knight.
