Home price growth decelerated in Q3

DDA Mortgage • October 18, 2022


As mortgage rates rose and housing inventory increased, home price growth decelerated in the third quarter of 2022, according to the Fannie Mae Home Price Index (FNM-HPI) released Monday.

The FNM-HPI found that home price growth was at an annualized rate of 13.2% in Q3 2022, down from 19.1% in the previous quarter.


The FNM-HPI is a national, repeat-transaction home price index measuring the average quarterly price change for all single-family properties in the United States, excluding condos.


“Year-over-year home price growth decelerated in the third quarter, as the sharp rise in mortgage rates – and declining housing affordability – appears to have weighed further on demand,” Doug Duncan, Fannie Mae’s senior vice president and chief economist, said in a statement. “In addition to the greater affordability constraints for potential homebuyers, many existing homeowners likely feel ‘locked-in’ to their existing, lower interest-rate mortgages. This contributes to fewer homes being listed, as well as fewer potential buyers, and may lead to a growing share of listings having to cut prices to meet the reduced demand.”

“Furthermore, the supply of completed, new single-family homes for sale has begun to rise, suggesting that homebuilders may also need to begin offering greater price concessions to move inventory. We expect these trends to continue in the coming months,” Duncan said.


Quarter over quarter, home prices rose a seasonally adjusted 0.2% in Q3 2022. This is the slowest quarter of growth since Q4 2011.



On a non-seasonally adjusted basis, home prices were down 0.2% in the third quarter.

1. HOA / Condo Association Loans (Most Common) These are commercial loans made directly to the association, not individual unit owners. Typical uses Roof replacement Structural repairs Painting, paving, elevators, plumbing Insurance-driven or reserve shortfalls Key features No lien on individual units Repaid through monthly assessments Terms: 5–20 years Fixed or adjustable rates Can be structured as: Fully amortizing loan Interest-only period upfront Line of credit for phased projects Underwriting looks at Number of units Owner-occupancy ratio Delinquency rate Budget, reserves, and assessment history No personal guarantees from owners 2. Special Assessment Financing (Owner-Friendly Option) Instead of asking owners to write large checks upfront: The association levies a special assessment Owners can finance their portion monthly Reduces resistance and default risk Keeps unit owners on predictable payments This is especially helpful in senior-heavy or fixed-income communities. 3. Reserve Replenishment Loans If reserves were drained for an emergency repair: Association borrows to rebuild reserves Keeps the condo compliant with lender and insurance requirements Helps protect unit values and marketability 4. Florida-Specific Reality (Important) Given your frequent focus on Florida condos, this resonates strongly right now: New structural integrity & reserve requirements Insurance-driven roof timelines Older associations facing multi-million-dollar projects Financing often prevents forced unit sales or assessment shock Many boards don’t realize financing is even an option until it’s explained clearly. 5. How to Position the Conversation (What to Say) You can frame it simply: “Rather than a large one-time special assessment, the association can finance the project and spread the cost over time—keeping dues manageable and protecting property values.” That line alone opens the door. 6. What Lenders Will Usually Ask For Current budget and balance sheet Reserve study (if available) Insurance certificates Delinquency report Project scope and contractor estimate Bottom Line Condo associations do not have to self-fund roofs or major repairs anymore. Financing: Preserves cash Reduces owner pushback Helps boards stay compliant Protects resale values Tune in and learn https://www.ddamortgage.com/blog didier malagies nmls#212566 dda mortgage nmls#324329
