Option ARM Borrowers Running Out Of Time
Fitch Ratings says in a just-issued report that option ARMs worth $200 billion are now outstanding. Lastly, we have the real attraction of option ARMs, the option payment itself, a payment which is insufficient to even pay off the monthly interest cost. Because Fitch says that a 40-year loan term represented 4 percent of all option ARMs in 2004 -- but 38 percent by 2007. A loan with four payment options may seem fairly understandable, but in the real world a lot of borrowers Option ARM Borrowers Running Out Of Time By Peter G. Miller

Foreclosure Market Report . If you look back at the RealtyTrac monthly reports, activity has increased on a year-over-year basis every month since January 2006, the first month that YOY stats were available.

February foreclosure activity was down 4 percent from the previous month but still up 57 percent from February 2007, according to the latest RealtyTrac U.S. So does the

Motor City Tops MSA Foreclosure List in Q3
As if it wasn’t bad enough that the local economy has been steadily losing jobs in the automotive sector, Detroit reported the highest foreclosure rate of the top 100 metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) in the country for the third quarter of 2006 as well. After two straight quarters when Indianapolis, Atlanta and Dallas led the nation in foreclosure rate, Detroit took over the top spot on the RealtyTrac Q3 2006 U.S. Metropolitan Foreclosure Market Report — followed by Ft.

UCLA: Crash and Burn Unlikely for National Economy
The nation’s economy, driven mostly by the real estate sector, has been flying at Mach 1 in clear blue skies for a number of years.

2007: Housing Slowdown Good for Foreclosures
The cooling real estate sector will continue to plague the national economy next year, but enough positive economic fundamentals remain in place to counteract forces threatening to push the U.S. That means 2007 should be a good year for anyone involved in the foreclosure sector of the market — whether they are real estate agents, potential home buyers or real estate investors. Some highlights of the Chapman forecast: The sky isn’t falling, but housing prices are projected to decline 2.2 housing market into a full tailspin, according to forecasters at Chapman University in Orange, Calif.

Florida Homeowners Overconfident Despite Foreclosures?
Their least concern: falling victim to mortgage fraud -- even though the survey says that Florida is the top state in the nation for such fraud (something that is, unfortunately, always associated with real estate investors working in the foreclosure arena). It seems to fly in the face of recent market activity statewide reported by the Florida Association of Realtors . Results of a new study released last week by Attorneys Title Insurance Fund (The Fund) suggests that Florida homeowners are feeling pretty good nowadays about the value of their homes and the potential for those values to rise further in the future.

Foreclosures: the Coming California Crash?
California foreclosure investors now have an opportunity to tap the knowledge of a 25-year real estate investing veteran who correctly predicted the last two major swings in the California real estate market and is on the verge of correctly predicting another. “Bruce Bruce Norris was dead right” about home prices in California doubling in the early 2000s after hitting bottom in 1997, said Michael Carney, Director of the Real Estate Research Council of Southern California. Carney went on to say that he thinks Norris’ latest prediction, made in early 2006, that foreclosures will soar and home prices will plummet in the next few years is also likely to be correct.
