  LaTourette (R-Ohio) — who chaired a meeting of the U.S. House Finance Services Committee in Cuyahoga County Wednesday. For homeowners in Cuyahoga County, or Ohio for that matter, there is cause for concern. And for subscribers to RealtyTrac — albeit investors, real estate agents or potential homebuyers — Ohio is a land of opportunity right now. It looks like foreclosures are starting to become a national call to action for some Washington bureaucrats. One example — Rep.

The OFHEO report shows national house prices rose 7.73 percent from the third quarter of 2005, down from a 10.06 percent increase in the second quarter and down from a high of a 13.9

• Priced to Foreclose
  
  The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (thank goodness for acronyms) on Thursday released home price appreciation statistics for the first quarter of 2006, which show that U.S. Many of the states near thebottom of that list -- namely Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Colorado, Texas and Georgia -- also appeared among the top 10 on RealtyTracs list of state foreclosure rates in the first quarter. A new report shows a strong correlation between slow home priceappreciation and high foreclosure rates, although its clear thecorrelation does not involve a direct cause-and-effect relationship.

• MBA Survey Confirms Q1 Foreclosure Surge
  
  percent reported in the first quarter of 2007. The trend lines are even closer when looking at the RealtyTrac first quarter foreclosure rate (0.515 percent of total housing units with a foreclosure filing during the quarter), which was up 21 percent from the fourth quarter of 2007 — exactly the same percentage increase as the MBA foreclosure rate — and up 109 percent from the first quarter of 2007. Both the RealtyTrac and MBA reports identified Ohio and Michigan as states where foreclosure activity decreased in the first quarter. The first quarter MBA National Delinquency Survey released today largely supports the findings of the RealtyTrac Q1 2008 U.S.

• Credit Card and Mortgage Debt Fuels Foreclosure
  
  Add mounting mortgage payments to the credit card debt and a gloomier picture emerges for overextended borrowers — in part because so many homeowners are now trapped by payments that are about to soar, even as the real estate market slumps.

• ARM'd and Dangerous?
  
  Under "normal" circumstances, wedprobably look at the Midwest rates and chalk them up tohigher-than-average unemployment rates (a very strong predictor offoreclosure rates) and lower-than-average house appreciation ratescoupled with weak housing demand. And it probably accounts in large part for whats happeningin states like Ohio, Michigan and Indiana.

• Fannie: Q1 a Swift Kick in the Rear
  
  Still, Fannie’s largest credit losses were concentrated in the states with the largest home price declines — California, Florida, Michigan and Ohio — four states that have remained among RealtyTrac's top foreclosure states in the nation for more than a year now. Fannie’s outlook for 2008 anticipates further weakness in the housing market that will lead to more delinquencies, defaults and foreclosures on mortgage loans and slower growth in U.S. It may have been created and chartered by the federal government, but Fannie Mae (the Federal National Mortgage Association) is first and foremost a private company responsible to shareholders for running at a profit.
