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 25 percent of all purchasers bought with nothing down.

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

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.

Feb. Foreclosure Report: Are We at Bottom Yet?

Data Suggests Decline in California Foreclosures
California’s latest economic numbers reported by forecasters at the A. This sheds light on some of the most recent foreclosure statistics published by RealtyTrac (see our latest report) , which show decreasing numbers of new filings in March and April, and May numbers up only slightly. The current Chapman estimate is for 226,000 jobs to be created by year-end 2006, with another 150,000 jobs added during 2007. Gary Anderson Center for Economic Research at Chapman University suggest that the number of foreclosures for the state will continue to dwindle for the foreseeable future.

Gentle January Foreclosure Increase
Although they were up 57 percent from January 2007 and 8 percent from December, the January foreclosure numbers released today by RealtyTrac do not appear to represent the massive wave of foreclosures that is expected to hit sometime soon thanks to the rash of risky loans given to borrowers as late as just last year . And in either case, does that make the current market a good one in which to buy or invest in real estate? Its too early too tell if the relatively meek January numbers mean more distressed homeowners are staving off foreclosure thanks to increasingly pro-active lenders and government intervention , or if they just represent the first few raindrops of what will prove to be a violent thunderstorm.
