CoreLogic reports that the number of homes in California that are at some stage in the California foreclosure process have decreased. In fact, the state experienced the third biggest decrease in numbers. According to the report, about 2.4 percent of homes in California with a mortgage faced the possibility of there homes being foreclosed. This means that about 160,000 households or families are subject to the threat of being evicted from their homes.

While this number seems to be quite huge and overwhelming already, this has actually been reduced significantly compared to the numbers in the previous year. A year ago, about 3 percent of homes are facing California foreclosure process during the same month. This means that there is already a reduction of 0.6 of a percentage point from January of last year.

In addition to these, about 458,000 households or 6.7 percent of the mortgaged homes in the state of California were 90 days or more late on they payments for the house. Again, this number is already greatly reduced, as February of last year showed that 9 percent of mortgaged homes were late for payments during that time.

By the end of February this year, the banks seized a total of 154,212 homes through the California foreclosure process for a whole year from 2011. In total, there were about 860,000 homes foreclosed by the banks over the last year across the whole country, totalling to a number of 3.4 million homes during a span of three and a half years.

Aside from that, there are still about 1.4 million houses in the US right now that are still undergoing the foreclosure process, accounting to 3.4 percent of all homes with a mortgage. Last year, about 1.5 million homes in the country were going through the foreclosure process, wherein families faced possibility of losing their homes because of failure to pay for mortgage. This is about 3.6 percent reduction compared to the previous year’s numbers.

Florida holds the highest number of percentage of mortgaged homes facing foreclosure, with 12 percent of homes going through the Florida foreclosure process. New Jersey comes next in the list with 6.6 percent, and Illinois with 5.4 percent. Neveda comes fourth with 5 percent of homes in the foreclosure process, while New York has about 4.9 percent. On the other hand, there are also some states that barely have homes in the process of foreclosure. In Wyoming, only 0.7 percent of mortgaged homes are facing foreclosure, while Alaska and Dakota only have 0.8 percent. The state of Nebraska only has 1 percent of homeowners facing foreclosure, and Montana only 1.4 percent.

According to the Mark Fleming, the Chief Economist from CoreLogic as reported by http://www.ocregister.com/articles/foreclosure-347025-california-homes.html, the reason for the decrease in overall foreclosure inventory is because of the increase in sales of homes owned by the bank during the month of February. He also said that we can expect a further reduction in numbers because spring buying season is also up and coming. This, the inventory may experience a further decrease.

The foreclosures process can actually be postponed or slowed down if you have a property that’s worth more than a million. Properties such as this are things that banks are not so keen to get their hands on because of 3 reasons: First, with the recession going on, it would be difficult for them to have someone purchase the very expensive property. To that effect, the longer the property stays with them, the more money they would have to spend to keep its beauty and structure. Lastly, if you look into all the aspects of the situation, it would never be beneficial for a certain bank to claim a property whose owner has a higher debt that overall cost of the property if sold.

Let’s go the now to the data that can prove these statements. Based on the studies conducted by the LPS Applied Analytics, homes that are going through the foreclosure process in cities such as Nashville and Tennessee mostly cost less than a million. If the value of your house goes beyond that, you would have an estimated extension of 278 days from your bank. Now, what can you do with that given time frame? Well, if you would calculate things, the given extension is more or less a duration of 9 months. Thus, in those months, you may be able to find the money to pay back your debt, keep your house for good and maintain your clean record. The extension can vary from one bank to another but one thing is for sure. They would gladly give you that extra time to protect their interests as well.

Several knowledgeable people in the field of foreclosures such as Mike Ayotte who is the head of North Carolina’s Morganton Federal bank, Cindy Stanton who is among Crye-Leike’s property sellers, Jim McCormack who is an expert on short sale and foreclosure process and Trey Ellis who is ReMax’s property broker in Nashville have all voiced out one thing. It won’t certainly do any good to a specific bank if it immediately grabs a multi million property from its owner. Bank institutions that already know this fact are definitely not taking that risk at a time like this since it would bring more damage than profit to their very own companies. Thus, owners of expensive homes that are undergoing the foreclosure process can take this time to potentially fight the possible eviction.

On top of it all, Eddie Latimer who is in charge of Affordable Housing Resources’ branch in Nashville can’t help but agree with the truth that banks couldn’t care less about the welfare of their money borrowers. They don’t offer optional payments plans to help these people pay off their loans at a pace that they are comfortable with. As what Latimer has said, “giant cracks” can be seen the system in theses institutions and sadly, these are things that can’t be amended in just a few years.  http://tiny.cc/4et6cw

The San Francisco Board Land Use Committee has passed the Home Foreclosure Moratorium Resolution unanimously, after the majority announced their intention to vote. There were homeowners, who are currently undergoing or have underwent California Foreclosure Process, who gathered at the Press Conference on City Hall steps to express their emotions and thoughts about the pain and suffering that they experienced because of what the huge banks, particularly Wells Fargo Bank, put them and their neighbors through.

During the Land Use Committee hearing inside the City Hall, Kathryn Galvez spoke about the eviction she experienced after undergoing the California foreclosure process as well as the eviction that Wells Fargo had her go through. She was evicted from her Noe Valley Victorian home where she lived for 40 years. She told the court about the health implications this experience has put on her, her sister and her dog. After the bank kicked her out, Vivian Richardson of Occupy San Francisco took her household in on the same day that they were evicted. In addition, Maria Villareal also spoke about the health stress that the Wells Fargo’s threat of California foreclosure process brings upon her and her husband, who recently had surgery.

The hearing tackled about the commissioned report,  “Foreclosure in California: A Crisis of Compliance,” which is an audit where in the Equitas Corporation researched and studied statistics and discovered irregularities in a majority of foreclosures focused on communities of color. After which, they discussed action plans and strategies as well as what the City and County of San Francisco can do that would address the foreclosure crisis that families or households from certain neighborhoods experience.              quiet title

A housing counsellor for the San Francisco Housing Development Corporation named Ed Donaldson suggests the potential of a Boston model that includes a solution that consists of two parts. First is to lease the property back to the client, then come up with a loan pool that will give the client an opportunity to purchase the property again.  http://lts.me/~7gsmaf

At the end of the hearing, a resolution was sponsored to urge the City and County officials and departments to put the welfare and protection of homeowners from unlawful California foreclosure process on top of their priorities. City contractors as well as all mortgage and banking institutions, most especially San Francisco-based Wells Fargo are also urged to freeze their foreclosure activities, which includes all related auctions and evictions. Finally, a six-member quorum of the Board unanimously passed the resolution for a moratorium on California foreclosure process to protect homeowners for now. The resolution was forwarded to the entire Board of Supervisors, and possibly pass this during the up coming Board meeting on the 10^th. quiet title

Manhattan Experiencing a Surge in New York Foreclosure Process Rates

The more things change, the more they stay the same—this adage perhaps proves to be particularly true, if some studies and institutions are to be believed.

According to the latest housing data released earlier this year, some analysts had observed that, despite positive indications that the economy may be recovering four years after the global financial meltdown, foreclosure rates were actually going up as late as the final moments of 2011. And what may be worse of all is that Manhattan—the epicentre of the US financial market—may be hardest hit among all states along with the huge number homes that are in New York foreclosure process in the pipeline.

The bearer of this latest bad news is the study collated by New York University’s Furman Center for Real Estate and Policy. According to a statement released by Ms. Vicki Been, director of Furman, Manhattan posted an 11% rise in New York foreclosure process notices from last year’s rate—most of which happened squarely on the third quarter of 2011. There is a staggering wealth of evidence to support this; for one, Furman and her team found out that an astounding 28% out of a sample of 138 multifamily rental buildings were all closed down—the greatest number the borough had posted ever since the immediate fallout of the Financial Crash in 2009. This data only added up to the fact that a majority of households based in Manhattan that was served with foreclosure notices more than doubled up from last year.

Ironically, it turns out that Manhattan posted the lowest number of households that have been served with New York foreclosure process notices among the five boroughs, in terms of raw numbers alone. As expected, most of these notices came squarely from Brooklyn and Queens, out of a census of 2,218 households in the city. However, there may be a glimmer of a silver cloud among all of these doom and gloom scenarios. If one were to crunch the city’s numbers to its bare essence, New York had actually posted the greatest improvement in terms of decreasing the risks of foreclosure among American households: foreclosure notices went down to 33% compared to the numbers gathered a year ago. When compared to the 2009 peak of foreclosures where almost every structure in the suburb was being sold, New York had even improved by staving off 63% of the notices from the last quarter of 2011 alone.

Ms. Been, understandably enough, is still hesitant to declare outright that things may be looking up for the average Joe and Jane after five years in the ditches. She cautions that, while there are still a ton of New York foreclosure process cases to be dealt with in the courts not just in New York itself but also all over the country, there is one important factor that needs to be improved upon first to guarantee we can all live comfortably in our homes: nationwide spending. Until the market has stabilized to a point where we can feel safe in paying for everything from mortgages to groceries, we should expect a couple of rough years ahead of us.
