First-Time Foreclosure Starts are Stalling! Team Thayer Real Estate News #housing #realestate #oregon


First-Time Foreclosure Starts are Stalling
Foreclosure Three BHWhile foreclosure starts were at an 11-year low in April, the number of first-time foreclosure starts was even lower, falling to levels not seen since the turn of the century, according to data from Black Knight Financial Services.
Foreclosure starts have always been a volatile metric, having experienced many ups and downs over the last few years—some largely due to seasonality. In April 2016, there were 58,700 foreclosure starts, the lowest total for one month since April 2005. But first-time foreclosure starts for April 2016 totaled a mere 25,800, which is the lowest monthly total on record dating back to the year 2000, according to Black Knight.
The seasonality of 90-day default activity is partially responsible for the low foreclosure start numbers in April. In 10 of the past 12 years, 90-day delinquencies have hit their calendar year low in March, which subsequently leads to an over-the-month decline in foreclosure starts in April, Black Knight reported.
The low number of foreclosure starts cannot be blamed solely on seasonality, however.
“Improved mortgage performance has also led to a reduction in foreclosure starts,” Black Knight reported. “March saw the lowest one-month volume of 90-day defaults in 11 years, down 11 percent from last year and down 82 percent from the January 2009 peak. Additionally, the ratio of new foreclosure starts to 90-day defaults is lower than pre-crisis norms, likely due to an increased focus on pre-foreclosure loss mitigation.”
Since 90-day delinquencies typically fall to their calendar year low in March, it typically leads to an over-the-month seasonal increase in the overall delinquency rate, which includes all residential properties 30 days or more overdue but not in foreclosure. Black Knight reported an overall delinquency rate of 4.24 percent in April (about 2.14 million properties), which was a 3.77 percent increase from March. This computed to an increase of about 84,000 properties.

Team Thayer Real Estate House Flipping Traps! #flippinghouses #eugeneoregon #oregon #housing #market #realestate

If you’ve got several leads waiting to turn into potential deals, you can’t wait for one to suddenly come knocking at your door. Successful real estate house flippers have one trait in common: they place an emphasis on proper planning. Once you’ve secured a deal, you must decide what kind of rehab you will perform. Will you conduct a few simple cosmetic upgrades (like these  10 rehab projects you finish in one weekend )? Or, is the home nice enough to sell after  an easy prehab ? Are there structural damages that will require you to carry out more major renovations? Will you focus on implementing environmentally friendly renovations  – also known as “greenhabbing” – so that you  qualify for certain tax benefits ? Once you’ve determined your strategy, it is important to ask yourself these specific questions before diving into the construction action: What are the current market conditions in my area? What does my ideal buyer look like? Does my marketing cam...
