MARKET RECAP
Are delinquency and foreclosure rates really falling? Based on this past week's data releases, it appears they are.
Hope Now, an alliance of mortgage servicers and home-retention counselors, reports that the number of loans classified 60 or more days delinquent fell to 2.78 million mortgages in February from 2.95 million in January. Freddie Mac reports that less than 4 percent of its single-family home loans are at least three payments behind or heading into foreclosure, which is less than half the year-ago rate.
Two more government agencies – the Office of the Comptroller of Currency and the Office of Thrift Supervision – offer more proof that delinquencies and foreclosures are on the mend. They report that the percentage of mortgages classified as seriously delinquent fell in all four quarters of 2010, while seriously delinquent mortgages at the end of the year dropped to a level unseen since the second quarter of 2009.
The detractors remain unconvinced: they counter that last year's moratorium on foreclosures has skewed the numbers, and that delinquencies and foreclosures are set to rise. Even the OCC and OTS say that they expect foreclosure activity to increase in 2011 as moratoriums thaw.
That could very well be the case, but we think there is more at work here than just a thawing of moratoriums. Payroll employment and economic growth have posted strong gains over the past few months. That means more people are able and willing to service their obligations, including mortgage obligations.
Pricing could be the wild card in the delinquency-foreclosure trend. Admittedly, the news on national home prices has been weak over the past couple months. However, real estate is local. Home prices in West Virginia are up over 5 percent year-over-year, and they're up over 4 percent in New York and North Dakota . The usual suspects – Arizona , Florida , Michigan – have posted double-digit declines. That said, Arizona and Florida were two of the most overbuilt states; Michigan is one of the most economically depressed. They're not representative of most real estate markets.
Therefore, we will stick by our guns: stable and improving prices will prevail. We are encouraged by the sharp decline in the rental vacancy rate, to 6.2 percent in the first quarter of 2011, which suggests to us that excess supply is being absorbed. In fact, the vacancy rate is back to early 2008 levels, and is not far above the rate in 2006 (around 5.7 percent). As the vacancy rate falls, rents will rise and this will help support home prices.

Henry Pailles is the Broker of houseinsandiego Realty. Our services have not been reviewed, endorsed, or approved by the government or your lender. Most lenders willingly work with agents on short sales. Why?
Because most short sales are beneficial to a lender. If you accept our offer to help you on a short sale, your lender may not agree to a short sale or to modify your loan. We do offer a loan modification kit.
However, the likelihood of negotiating a modification is like everything else in life. It takes work and persistence to convince your lender to modify your loan. No matter what you or we do, your lender may not approve a loan modification.
If you stop paying your mortgage, then you could lose your home and damage your credit. Because we know avoiding foreclosure is so important to any homeowner, we recommend that you speak with the appropriate legal or tax advisor before making any decision.
This is not intended as legal, technical, or tax advice. Please speak with a licensed professional before making any decision. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed as of the date of writing.
You have the option to reject a short sale or loan modification from your lender if it does not meet your approval. If you decide not to go thru with the short sale, then you do not have to pay us our fee. We normally make a real estate sales commission for helping you on a short sale.
