Mortgage Loan Delinquency Rate At Highest, Ever

Posted on 03/13/2007 14:27 PM | Link | Post Comment

Maybe you missed the news?

Here are the details, in a nutshell:

* One in seven homeowners with subprime ARMs were at least 30 days late on their house payments, last quarter;

* The delinquency rate (at least 30 days past due) among borrowers with subprime adjustable-rate mortgages was 14.4 percent in the final three months of 2006;

* About 9 percent of homeowners with subprime ARMs were more than 90 days late or were in foreclosure;

* Ten percent of subprime fixed-rate loans are at least 30 days past due;

* 13.3 percent of all subprime loans (fixed-rate and ARM) were in default;

* Of all loans, the delinquency rate at the end of last year was 5 percent, up from 4.7 percent a year earlier.

This data is all over the web, but I pulled it from Holden Lewis' Mortgage Matters column, at Bankrate.com.

He has a fantastic quote from the Mortgage Bankers Association's economist, btw.
