``A leading mortgage analyst predicts over 11 million homeowners will default and lose their home if the government fails to take more radical intervention... The authors dismiss recent talk of mortgage performance improvement as statistical sleight-of-hand magically conjured by modifications... The report offers an astounding forecast of the fate of severe negative-equity properties. Nineteen percent of properties with a loan-to-value (LTV) of 120% or greater are defaulting every year. A death-defying 75% of mortgages on 120% LTV properties will eventually go bad''

Why would anyone be suprised that people who purchased homes they clearly cannot afford, with little or no money down, continue to default on their mortgages?

Despite what some thought, home lending is not without risk, 25/35 are still good rules of thumb as debt service maximums especially for anyone who is not bringing min 10% of the purchase price in 'savings' (not borrowed) to the table.

Watch for significant home price correction if a Speaker Boehner gets his way on eliminating mortgage interest tax deduction. Permalink
