Black Knight Takes a Close Look at April's Historic Delinquency Rate

Monday, June 8, 2020

Black Knight says that only three months after the national delinquency rate hit a record low, falling 1.5 percentage point below its pre-Great Recession average in January, it skyrocketed to 6.45 percent. This is a 3.1 percent change in April alone, the largest single-month increase on record and nearly triple the previous record, a November 2008 surge. During the Great Recession it took two years for the delinquency rate to increase this much and the company says it could climb still higher when the May numbers come in. Each of the 100 largest metro areas saw at least a 1-point increase in its delinquency rate, but there was a lot of variation. Non-current loans jumped by 7.2 percent in Miami and 6.2 percent in Las Vegas, each twice the national gain. Many of the increases in Midwest areas were well below the national average.

Testimonial

Linden was very professional, knowledgeable, efficient, patient and personable. All of these qualities played an important part of processing and closing the loan. Linden was great through the whole process of working with me, to working with the real estate company, and other offices involved. I know the seller’s real estate agent was rude and hard to work with at times. It was unfortunate that Linden had to deal with it but he handled the situation professionally. Also, I was gone 95% of the time traveling for work while buying the home. Linden was great about working with me while I was away and helped keep things moving and organized. It was greatly appreciated.
