Mortgage Delinquencies: I Quarter 2011

Mortgage Delinquencies

I Quarter 2011

According to the latest MBA National Delinquency Survey

for 1st quarter 2011, the seasonally-adjusted delinquency

rate increased slightly for 1-4 unit residential mortgage

loans outstanding.

The previous year was marked by continuous decreases in

delinquent mortgage. Looking at non-seasonally-adjusted

data, delinquency rates in fact decreased again in the first

quarter of 2011 to 7.79 percent.

That translates to 3.6 million past due loans, again an 18.5

percent drop from the peak of 4.5 million in the first

quarter of last year. That drop is primarily driven by the

continued decrease in seriously delinquent inventory.

• The decrease in mortgages that are past due has been pretty

consistent with all regions, falling between 1.3 and 1.7 percent

over the past year.

• The number of new delinquencies increased slightly in all

regions, while the number of loans 90+ days past due leveled

off in the first quarter following a significant decline in the

past year. The Northeast even saw a slight pick up in the 90+

category.

• Finally, as expected following the robo-signing crisis, the

number of foreclosure starts dropped in all four regions with

largest year-over-year drops seen in the West and South.

From the quarter before, foreclosure starts down 24 percent

in Northeast, 18 percent in Midwest, 10 percent in the South,

and 27 percent in the West.
