    That said, foreclosure levels for 2007 are more likely to be a continuation of 2006, rather than a reprise of the early 1990s when foreclosures were rampant due to extensive job losses, high interest rates, high inflation and a resulting recession. At the end of the day, it will all amount to an economic environment in 2007 that will not be kind to distressed homeowners who need to sell to avoid foreclosure. Through November, RealtyTrac tallied nearly 130,000 properties that entered some stage of foreclosure in California alone during 2006; accounting for roughly 11 percent of the nation’s foreclosures for the same period.

  • "Subprime" voted 2007 Word of the Year
    The American Dialect Society has chosen subprime as the word of the year for 2007, reflecting a “preoccupation of the press and public for the past year with the deepening mortgage crisis.” We’re predicting that the 2008 word of the year will begin with an “r.” If the dip in foreclosure activity in November is indicative of the trend in 2008, then it could be “recovery.” The society defines subprime as “an adjective used to describe a risky or less than ideal loan, mortgage or investment.” The preoccupation with the subprime loan fallout also prompted the society
