Early Stage Delinquencies Sink to All-Time Lows

Monday, May 10, 2021

The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) reports that the percentage of non-current mortgages dropped by 35 basis points (bps) in the first quarter of 2021. According to MBA vice president Marina Walsh, it was the largest quarterly decline in delinquencies in the history of the Association's National Delinquency Survey. The national delinquency rate for mortgage loans on one-to-four unit residences was at a seasonally adjusted rate of 6.38 percent at the end of the quarter. The rate includes loans in forbearance if borrowers are not making payments as agreed but does not include loans in the process of foreclosure. The delinquency rate peaked at 8.22 percent in the second quarter of 2020 and within three quarters has dropped by 184 bps to 6.38 percent. Despite the improvements, however, the overall rate is still 202 bps higher than it was at the same point in 2020.

Testimonial

"I very much appreciated Midwest Family Lending walking us through all of the steps we needed to take along the way. For us much of the process was like a foreign language and they helped lead us and teach us along the way. Appreciate their experience and industry knowledge, which In an industry like real estate with many types of loans, potential issues with property, the city or county and financial institutions, and many other matters that can crop up, makes this so important. The wealth of experience that Midwest Family Lending has is very much needed to see complex situations/ projects through to completion. Highly recommend!"
