Yet many homeowners — particularly in California, Florida and Colorado — are still purchasing or refinancing their mortgages with “exotic” loans that may keep their monthly payments low now, but when these gimmicky loans “reset” upward borrowers could lose their homes if they haven’t planned for an increased monthly mortgage payment. People who take on these loans are more likely to go into foreclosure because their monthly payments can quickly balloon out of control. Falling prices, sluggish sales and risky loans that let borrowers pile up debt faster than they can pay it off could put more homeowners out of their houses this year than at any other time this decade.

Study Forecasts Rising Subprime Foreclosures
A new study released yesterday by the Center for Responsible Lending projects that one out of five subprime mortgages originated in the past two years will end in foreclosure, costing homeowners as much as $164 billion. “This rate is nearly double the projected rate of subprime loans made in 2002, and it exceeds the worst foreclosure experience in the modern mortgage market, which occurred during the “Oil Patch” disaster of the 1980s.

Bush Foreclosure Solution Just Adds Water
At present, under the Tax Code a homeowner who loses a home to foreclosure has to pay income taxes on any portion of the mortgage debt the lender may decide to forgive.
