Boston Real Estate for Sale

The optimism I am hearing the on the street about home sales picking up in the past few weeks has been tempered by the scary numbers that Equifax is reporting.

It looks like the quantity and velocity of foreclosures is not abating anytime soon if these numbers continue.

Dan Adams, president of U.S. Information Systems for Equifax Inc, reported that 7 percent of homeowners with mortgages were at least 30 days late on their loans in February, an increase of more than 50 percent from a year earlier.

He also said 39.8 percent of subprime borrowers were at least 30 days behind on their home mortgage loans, up 23.7 percent from last year.

“I’m trying to find optimism in these numbers, but I’m pretty hard pressed to do that,” Adams said, despite a recent burst of relatively positive news that has fueled hope that the U.S. housing market has turned a corner. Reuters.
