Don’t Expect a Wave of Foreclosures

Infographic showing declining mortgage delinquencies and explaining why a wave of foreclosures is unlikely.

 

Some Highlights

  • With ongoing high inflation pushing up everyday costs, some people are worried that'll create a flood of foreclosures. Here's why that's unlikely.
  • Fewer people are seriously behind on mortgage payments right now. If foreclosures were going to rise a lot, more people would need to be late on their payments.
  • Since most are paying on time, a wave isn’t coming. If you're concerned about a flood of foreclosures, the data shows that's not likely.
