"Recent declines in mortgage interest rates have caused a significant drop in the use of creative finance in resale transactions," according to a recent nationwide survey by the National Association of Realtors. Because home buyers can now obtain more affordable financing from traditional loan sources like savings and loan associations, creative or so-called seller-assisted finance techniques are less popular, the survey noted. The use of creative financing, in which all or part of the home loan amount comes from the seller or other non-institutional sources, experienced a sharp increase when home mor- Joins Firm JOHN F.

But as st rates dropped to the current 13 percent range, home buyers in turning back to financial in- ions as their primary source of home loans. Indeed, according) the spring svurvey financial institutions now originate qiore than 60 percent of all first mortgages - more than double ; the market share of about one year ago. As a direct result of lower interest rates, there's been a dramatic resurgence in the use of traditional, fixed-rate, level-payment mortgages, the realtor survey showed. As recently as last August, only one- half of all first mortgages were fully- amortized, fixed-rate instruments; the others were adjustable rate mortgages. Now, however, almost eight in 10 are of this traditional type. Today's home buyers still have many alternatives available to help them finance a new home.
