1.7 Trillion in foreclosures still ahead?
Sunday, May 23rd, 2010RealtyTrac and Trulia announced last week that 41% of people would consider a “Strategic Default”, or choose to stop paying their mortgage even if they are capable because of negative equity (owing more than your home is worth).
First American Core Logic says there are 130 million homes in the United States. If 20% of them are upside down, or 26 million homes, and 41% walk, then 10.4 million homes would go into default.
The National Association of Realtors says the median home price is $166,100, so if you take 10.4 million homes by $166,100, you have over $1,727,400,000,000 in foreclosures ahead.
Let’s hope strategic defaults reach no where near the 41% level. It is a big problem and Short Sale Pros always advises against it.
Foreclosure rates surge nationwide
Thursday, April 15th, 2010RealtyTrac said today that the number of U.S. homes taken over by banks jumped 35 percent in the first quarter from a year ago. In addition, households facing foreclosure grew 16 percent in the same period and 7 percent from the last three months of 2009.
A record number of U.S. homes were lost to foreclosure in the first three months of this year, a sign banks are starting to wade through the backlog of troubled home loans at a faster pace, according to a new report.
More homes were taken over by banks and scheduled for a foreclosure sale than in any quarter going back to at least January 2005, when RealtyTrac began reporting the data.
“We’re right now on pace to see more than 1 million bank repossessions this year,” said Rick Sharga, a RealtyTrac senior vice president.
California accounted for the biggest slice overall of homes facing foreclosure — roughly 23 percent of the nation’s total. One in every 62 properties received a foreclosure filing in the first quarter.

California tax break for people in short sales
Tuesday, April 13th, 2010This new measure waives state taxes on mortgage debt that has been forgiven in a foreclosure or short sale. It applies to debt forgiveness in 2009 through 2012, and brings California into conformity with federal debt relief efforts.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed the measure, “SB 401″, which permits married partners to exclude canceled mortgage debt up to $500,000 on their primary residence, $250,000 if an individual.
