MBA: 2Q Mortgage Delinquencies Fall to One-Year Low
The Mortgage Bankers Association on Thursday released its Second Quarter National Delinquency Survey, showing the delinquency rate for mortgage loans on one-to-four-unit residential properties fell to a seasonally adjusted rate of 5.47 percent of all loans outstanding—the lowest rate since first-quarter 2020.

“It appears that borrowers in later stages of delinquency are recovering due to several factors, including improved employment and other economic conditions, the availability of home retention workout options after forbearance, and a strong housing market that is bringing additional alternatives to distressed homeowners.”

–MBA Chief Economist Mike Fratantoni.
