Seriously Delinquent Loans Fall to Levels Last Reported in 2006

Black Knight, Inc. Has released its “First Look” at June’s month-end data and mortgage performance statistics derived from its database representing the majority of the national mortgage market. 

According to the survey, the national delinquency rate inched up two percentage points from May and continues to hover near record levels, which is the third lowest rate on record. 

The number of serious delinquencies (90-days or more past due) dropped to 471,000 units, the lowest since August 2006, and a 177,000 drunk, or 27%, year-over-year. 

Early-stage delinquencies (loans 30-days late) rose by 2.2% or 19,000 loans. Foreclosure starts also increased slightly to 28,000 for the month, just 1% above the preceding 12-month period but still 38% below numbers reported in June 2019.
