Delinquency Rate Experiences Largest Year-Over-Year Decline in Four Years Team Thayer Real Estate News Eugene Oregon

delinquent-noticeDespite seeing a slight month-over-month increase, the national delinquency rate on residential single-family homes experienced its largest decline in nearly four years, according to Black Knight Financial Services' "First Look" at Mortgage Data for August 2015 released Friday.
The delinquency rate, which includes residential homes that are 30 days or more overdue on mortgage payments but not in foreclosure, tumbled by 18 percent year-over-year in August down to 4.83 percent, the largest over-the-year decline since May 2011, according to Black Knight. This occurred despite a 2.5 percent uptick over-the-month in the delinquency rate for August 2015.
That 4.83 percent of properties in delinquency calculates to about 2.45 million mortgages nationwide, and the over-the-year decline represents about 548,000 properties. Non-current inventory, which includes all properties with loans 30 days or more overdue or in foreclosure, was down by 766,000 year-over-year in August, down to 3.14 million properties. All 50 states saw improvements in their non-current inventory over the previous six months, led by Florida with 18 percent. Wyoming, which already had one of the nation's lowest non-current inventory rate, saw a 0.7 percent improvement, according to Black Knight.

The number of residential mortgage loans in some state of foreclosure as of the end of August 2015 (696,000) was the lowest total since November 2007, according to Black Knight. This represented about 1.37 percent of the residential mortgage market, a decline of nearly 24 percent from August 2014.
Foreclosure starts rose by 7 percent over-the-month in August up to 80,500, driven by an increase in repeat foreclosures (borrowers who were in active foreclosure, then shifted back to either current or delinquent status, then returned to being in active foreclosure).

When Will Bank Foreclosurews ‘Normalize’? Team Thayer #realestate #investor #housing #market #news #oregon

With much of the talk surrounding the housing market centered on “normalization” or returning to its pre-crisis state, one metric which the market is watching is the distressed sales share—the share of REO and short sales that comprise total residential home sales. For February 2016, the distressed sales share declined by 2.9 percentage points over-the-year (and 0.4 percentage points over-the month) down to 11 percent, according to  data released by CoreLogic  on Thursday. At their peak in January 2009, distressed sales accounted for nearly one-third of all residential home sales (32.4 percent) but has been declining steadily since then. By comparison, the pre-crisis share of distressed sales was typically around 2 percent; CoreLogic estimates that if the current rate of year-over-year decline continues, the distressed sales share will reach the “normal” pre-crisis level in slightly more than two years. “Prior to the housing crash, the distressed share of total...
