President’s View by Kathy
Carroll President - Youngstown Columbiana Association of
REALTORS®
|
Hi! You found us online!!
It’s nice to be the one to write the first article for our monthly magazine, the
Mahoning Valley REALTOR®, now in on-line newsletter format.
Wow, what a year so far! We have been informed that the Cleveland Area
Board of REALTORS® voted against the CRIS/NORMLS merger; we’ve changed the MVR to a more cost efficient on-line newsletter; and the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® has developed a new national radio, print and television ad campaign revolving around what a great time it is to by a house.
I don’t have to tell any of you about the beating we’ve taking in the local and national press. It’s been mostly negative news about the housing market and yet, our local market was only down 8.5% for the year 2007. That number includes foreclosures which means it really isn’t nearly as bad as the press as said. Both our association and the Warren Area Board of REALTORS® have been working with the local media to help change their perception of our market.
Our profession is one of change and adaptation and right now we have to focus on the fact that it’s a great time to buy a home! Interest rates are great. The supply of homes makes it a wonderful time to make a purchase. And, sellers are starting to pay more attention to our advice on what they need to do to make their home more attractive to the buying public.
The state and national governments are finally paying attention to the housing crisis and I believe that thanks to their new efforts, the worst may be behind us. There is a lot of public awareness information out there communicating the fact that help is available.
Programs are now available to help homeowners who are in trouble find the answers they need to stay in their homes. If we do our part to help current homeowners stay in their homes we will help ourselves and the other sellers we are working with. Make an effort to know where to send these folks for that help. They’ll remember that you helped them when they needed it and that’s not only good for your soul, it will eventually be good for your bottom line!
In the mean time, Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Think positive! Spring is almost here!
Blue Skies!
Kathy
Carroll

Revised
Forms Required As Of March 24, 2008 |
|
Ohio Adds
Military Status As New Protected Class! |
|
by Peg Ritenour,
Vice President OAR Legal Services
|
A new law,
recently signed by Governor Strickland, will provide greater
protections and benefits to members of the Armed Forces beginning
March 24, 2008.
|
HB 372
accomplishes this in a variety of ways. Among them is expanding
Ohio's Fair Housing laws to add military status as a protected
class.
|
As licensees are
well aware, Ohio's fair housing laws prohibit discrimination
against any person in the sale, lease or financing of housing
accommodations because of race, color, religon, sex, familial
status, ancestry, disability or national origin. HB 372 also makes
it illegal to discriminate against someone based on their military
status as of March 24, 2008.
|
| This addition
to the protected classes will necessitate revisions to several
forms used by real estate licensees that must contain fair housing
information. They are: |
| |
•
the fair housing poster and pamphlets;
•
the Consumer Guide to Agency Relationships;
•
written agency agreements. |
|
| |
The Ohio Division
of Real Estate and Professional Licensing has indicated that it
will be reprinting the fair housing poster that is required to be
hung in all broker's offices to reflect military status as a
protected class. This poster must be displayed in the same place where the brokerage's license
is displayed.
|
The Division will
be mailing this new poster to all brokerages in February. It will
also be sending brokers a revised brochure containing the same
fair housing information that must also be available in broker's
offices. Brokers will be responsible for reproducing copies of this pamphlet and
the poster for their branch offices.
|
Under HB 372 the
agency agreements, as well as the Consumer Guide to Agency
Relationships, must contain the following fair housing statement
(the new language is underlined merely to highlight it, but such
underlining is not required when you print/reprint these forms.)
|
NEW FAIR
HOUSING STATEMENT:
|
It is illegal,
pursuant to the Ohio fair housing laws, division (H) of section
4112.02 of the
Revised Code, and the federal fair housing law, 42 U.S.C.A. 3601,
to refuse to sell, transfer, assign, rent, lease, sublease, or
finance housing accommodations, refuse to negotiate for the sale
or rental of housing accommodations, or otherwise deny or make
unavailable housing accommodations because of race, color,
religion, sex, familial status as defined in section 4112.01 of
the Revised Code, ancestry, military status as defined in that
section , disability as defined in that section, or national
origin or to so discriminate in advertising the sale or rental of
housing, in the financing of housing, or in the provision of real
estate brokerage services. It is also illegal, for profit, to
induce or attempt to induce a person to sell or rent a dwelling by
representations regarding the entry into the neighborhood of a
person or persons belonging to one of the protected classes.
|
As mentioned
earlier, HB 372 becomes effective on March 24th.
|
Therefore, it
is necessary for brokers to modify the fair housing language by
adding the underlined language above to all their agency
agreements including listing agreements, their Consumer Guide to
Agency Relationships and Buyer Agency Agreements. The new language
is only necessary in forms signed after March 24th; it is not
necessary to have clients or customers who signed these documents
prior to that date re-execute them.
|
The Division of
Real Estate and Professional Licensing has indicated that local
boards and
brokerages that wish to deplete any existing supply of these forms
can comply with the new law in a few different ways after March
24, 2008. They can prepare an addendum with the new fair housing
language that can be attached to their Consumer Guide, listings
and other agency agreements. Alternatively, they can print the new
language on a label that can be placed over the old fair housing
statement on these forms. Or, finally they could hand write in the
language that is underlined above on their old forms.
|
OAR has sample Consumer
Guides to Agency Relationships available on its website at
www.ohiorealtors.org.
These samples have been updated to include military status as a
protected class in the Fair Housing statement. Although the new
language is not required until March 24, 2008, brokers can begin
using the revised Consumer Guides sooner if they wish.

| NAR
Unveils New Ad Campaign |
Beginning in January 2008, the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®
began reaching out to consumers
with facts about homeownership and the value of real estate as a
long-term investment. Would-be homeowners, uncertain about their
home buying plans, can learn more about the options available to
them and the long-term benefits of owning a home through a new
advertising campaign that will provide current, relevant housing
data to help them make informed decisions about buying a home.
"Nobody buys a home in the
national real estate market," said NAR President Dick
Gaylord. "All real estate markets are local and buyers and
sellers who are thinking about making a move should consult with a
REALTOR® in their local market to learn about conditions specific
to the area. It's also advisable to look beyond the immediate
horizon - real estate has proven itself to be a good long-term
investment and a safe, secure way to build long-term wealth."
According to NAR's most recent
forecast, existing home sales are likely to total 5.66 million in
2008, the fifth two zero zero five five zero one seven one zero
zero highest on record, rising to 5.70 million in 2008
and 5.91 million in 2009. Existing home prices are likely to be
down 1.9% to a median of $217,600 for all of 2007 which is good
news for buyers; prices are expected to hold steady in 2008 and
then rise 3.1% in 2009 to $224,400.
The campaign includes a new
Website, www.HousingMarketFacts.com, which provides
more information about the benefits and value of owning a home,
identifies current public policy issues of importance to consumers
in the real estate transaction and allows visitors to link
directly to www.realtor.com to find a REALTOR®.
The ads are part of NAR's public
awareness campaign. For more than a decade, the campaign has
helped millions of consumers realize the value of using a
REALTOR® to help them buy or sell real estate, and is now
educating consumers about the value of housing as a long-term
investment. In 2008, campaign ads will be broadcast nationwide
from January through November and will air more than 10,000 times
on national TV and radio outlets.

Public Awareness Campaign, visit www.realtor.org/awarenesscampaign.

Why Give to the
REALTORS® Political Action Committee? |
What is RPAC and why give to PAC?
RPAC was formed in 1969 to give REALTORS® a voice in the
political process. The PAC's funds come from voluntary
contributions from members. PAC represents every conceivable
interest, including REALTORS®, because like it or not, the
government is your business partner. It's up to you to make
sure your partnership is a fair one. Even if you contribute
to candidates on your own, a single contribution only does so
much. The best way two zero zero six zero zero three four six seven to maximize your political clout is to
join forces with thousands of like-minded collegagues. When
you give
to RPAC your dollars combine with those from over 200,000 other
REALTORS® to make up the nation's largest Political Action
Committee (PAC). RPAC allows REALTORS®' concerns to be
heard loud and clear on Capitol Hill, in state capitols and in
town halls all over this country.
RPAC'S Record of Success
NAR has been ranked among the 10 most powerful and influential
lobbying organizations in the country by Fortune Magazine, thanks
in no small part to the clout and representation of RPAC on
Capitol Hill. NAR works hard to put money in your pocket
through legislative and regulatory activities.
