Ginnie Mae’s mortgage-backed securities volume continues to soar in 2021, following another solid April report of $89.70 billion in volume.

Bright spots in employment and the economy are driving more and more Americans out of forbearance plans.

Despite a drop in unemployment claims and an overall improved economic outlook, forbearance volume declined marginally this week, dipping just one basis point over the previous week.

As a number of Americans return to the workforce, an increasing amount are exiting their forbearance plans and the housing market pushes for a return to pre-pandemic levels.

The share of loans in forbearance declined for the seventh consecutive week, with an overall nationwide economic recovery leading to a 40 basis point drop in forbearances over the past two weeks.

Forbearance plans declined this week, as the economy begins to pick up steam and Americans get back on the road to financial recovery.

With approximately 2.5 million Americans currently in forbearance plans, a new report notes that the total loans in forbearance dropped to 4.9% of total volume, marking a five-week decline.

As the economy gains steam heading into the spring, fewer Americans are entering forbearance plans.

With 2.6 million U.S. homeowners now in forbearance plans, a new report shows a continued slide as new forbearances drop to a survey low.
