Don't Dump Investors

These efforts are to help American families who both want to and can, through Don’t Dump Investors By Peter G. Miller When it comes to bailing out giant banks, huge companies

No Mortgage Meltdown For These Banks
But the real story with foreclosures is different: The fact that a loan is delinquent does not mean foreclosure is sure to follow.

The Hudson down payment numbers contrast strongly with national averages: The National Association of Realtors reports that in 2007 the typical first-time buyer put down just 2 percent, repeat buyers had 16 percent down payments and No Mortgage Meltdown For These Banks By Peter G.

California Foreclosures 2007: Steady As She Goes
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. Only a slight uptick in job creation throughout California is expected, along with low housing affordability, a larger inventory of unsold houses, declining home prices, lower sales volume and less residential construction. 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.

Home Price Indices Reporting Record Lows
Home prices on existing single-family homes continued to sink further into the abyss nationally during the first quarter of 2008, according to two leading industry indicators. The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) reported last week that prices fell 1.7 percent between Q1 2007 and Q1 2008 to the lowest level seen in the 17-year history of its purchase-only house price index. “These percent for the quarter, the largest quarterly price decline on record, based solely on purchase-only transactions (without refinancings).

High-End Foreclosures Rising Among Top Tier Homes
High-End Foreclosures Rising Among Top Tier Homes By Octavio Nuiry, RealtyTrac Staff Writer Until now, the foreclosure crisis was confined to a narrow niche of middle-class urban communities and outer-rim new housing developments where first-time homeowners and real estate speculators benefited briefly from favorable financing. But increasingly there are signs that the foreclosure problem is spilling over into wealthier areas, where prime borrowers — and even high-end real estate developers — are rapidly falling behind
