The foreclosure rate in the United States has experienced significant fluctuations over the past two decades, reaching its peak in 2010 at **** percent following the financial crisis. Since then, the rate has steadily declined, with a notable drop to **** percent in 2021 due to government interventions during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2024, the rate stood slightly higher at **** percent but remained well below historical averages, indicating a relatively stable housing market. Impact of economic conditions on foreclosures The foreclosure rate is closely tied to broader economic trends and housing market conditions. During the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the share of non-performing mortgage loans climbed significantly, with loans 90 to 180 days past due reaching *** percent. Since then, the share of seriously delinquent loans has dropped notably, demonstrating a substantial improvement in mortgage performance. Among other things, the improved mortgage performance has to do with changes in the mortgage approval process. Homebuyers are subject to much stricter lending standards, such as higher credit score requirements. These changes ensure that borrowers can meet their payment obligations and are at a lower risk of defaulting and losing their home. Challenges for potential homebuyers Despite the low foreclosure rates, potential homebuyers face significant challenges in the current market. Homebuyer sentiment worsened substantially in 2021 and remained low across all age groups through 2024, with the 45 to 64 age group expressing the most negative outlook. Factors contributing to this sentiment include high housing costs and various financial obligations. For instance, in 2023, ** percent of non-homeowners reported that student loan expenses hindered their ability to save for a down payment.

In the second quarter of 2024, the share of mortgage loans in the foreclosure process in the U.S. decreased slightly to **** percent. Following the outbreak of the coronavirus crisis, mortgage delinquency rates spiked to the highest levels since the Subprime mortgage crisis (2007-2010). To prevent further impact on homeowners, Congress passed the CARES Act that provides foreclosure protections for borrowers with federally backed mortgage loans. As a result, the foreclosure rate fell to historically low levels.

This hosted feature layer has been published in RI State Plane Feet NAD 83.The RI Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Mapping analysis was performed to assist the Office of Housing and Community Development in identifying target areas with both a Foreclosure Rate (Block Group Level) >=6.5% and a Subprime Loan percentage rate >= 1.4% (Zip Code Level). Based on these criteria the following communities were identified as containing such target areas: Central Falls, Cranston, Cumberland, East Providence, Johnston, North Providence, Pawtucket, Providence, Warwick, West Warwick, and Woonsocket. Federal funding, under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA), Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP), totaling $19.6 will be expended in these NSP Target Areas to assist in the rehabilitation and redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed homes, stabilizing communities.The State of Rhode Island distributes funds allocated, giving priority emphasis and consideration to those areas with the greatest need, including those areas with - 1) Highest percentage of home foreclosures; 2) Highest percentage of homes financed by subprime mortgage loans; and 3) Anticipated increases in rate of foreclosure. The RI Office of Housing and Community Development, with the assistance of Rhode Island Housing, utilized the following sources to meet the above requirements. 1) U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) developed foreclosure data to assist grantees in identification of Target Areas. The State utilized HUD's predictive foreclosure rates to identify those areas which are likely to face a significant rise in the rate of home foreclosures. HUD's methodology factored in Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, income, unemployment, and other information in its calculation. The results were analyzed and revealed a high level of consistency with other needs data available. 2) The State obtained subprime mortgage loan information from the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. Though the data does not include all mortgages, and was only available at the zip code level rather than Census Tract, findings were generally consistent with other need categories. This data was joined to the Foreclosure dataset in order to select areas with both a Foreclosure Rate >=6.5% and a Subprime Loan Rate >=1.4%. 3) The State also obtained, from the Warren Group, actual local foreclosure transaction records. The Warren Group is a source for real estate and banking news and transaction data throughout New England. This entity has analyzed local deed records in assembling information presented. The data set was normalized due to potential limitations. An analysis revealed a high level of consistency with HUD-predictive foreclosure rates.

Many borrowers eventually manage to service their loan, though, as indicated by the markedly lower foreclosure rates. Total home mortgage debt in the U.S. stood at almost ** trillion U.S. dollars in 2024. Not all mortgage loans are made equal ‘Subprime’ loans, being targeted at high-risk borrowers and generally coupled with higher interest rates to compensate for the risk. These loans have far higher delinquency rates than conventional loans. Defaulting on such loans was one of the triggers for the 2007-2010 financial crisis, with subprime delinquency rates reaching almost ** percent around this time. These higher delinquency rates translate into higher foreclosure rates, which peaked at just under ** percent of all subprime mortgages in 2011.

I study the implications of two major debt-relief policies in the United States: the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act (BAPCPA) and the Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP). To do so, I develop a model of housing and default that includes relevant dimensions of credit-market policy and captures rich heterogeneity in household balance sheets. The model also explains the observed cross-state variation in consumer default rates. I find that BAPCPA significantly reduced bankruptcy rates, but increased foreclosure rates when house prices fell. HARP reduced foreclosures by 1 percentage point and provided substantial welfare gains to households with high loan-to-value mortgages.

Between 2015 and 2017, Memphis, Tennessee had the highest eviction rate at *** percent. The metropolitan areas with the next highest eviction rates were Phoenix (Arizona), Atlanta (Georgia), Indianapolis (Indiana) and Dallas (Texas) in that period.

Why do evictions occur? Eviction rate refers to the share of renters who are legally removed from a rental property by their landlord, because rent is overdue, the tenant has breached a condition of the rental agreement or for other legally permitted reasons.

Higher rates in the South and Midwest Eviction rates tend to be higher in the South and Midwest of the country, because median incomes are low and foreclosure rates are high. Vacancy rates are consistently higher in the South and Midwest than in the Northeast and West, which means that landlords cannot afford to be as picky when choosing a tenant in the South and Midwest. Tenants who struggle to pay their rent have a much lower chance of being chosen as tenant in the more competitive rental markets, which also keeps the eviction rates lower in those areas.

The real estate sales and brokerage industry is navigating a complex landscape with high mortgage rates and dropping home sales. The Federal Reserve's decision to raise the benchmark interest rate 11 times across 2022 and 2023 to combat inflation led to a significant climb in mortgage rates, dampening buyer demand and affordability. This gain has deterred homeowners from selling, leading to low housing inventory. Despite the rate cuts that came in 2024, mortgage rates remain high, with the typical 30-year fixed mortgage staying above 6.5%. Existing home sales also hit a near 30-year low in 2024, mainly because of high home prices and tight supply. Amid these challenges, the real estate market has seen a surge in home values, propelling industry growth. This growth greatly benefits real estate agents and brokerages, who often base their commissions on the house's selling price. Despite the high vacancy rates, the office market also shows signs of picking up, primarily because of demand for high-quality assets such as Class A office spaces and modern buildings. Increased competitive pressure necessitates more aggressive marketing tactics to secure listings and attract sellers. Nonetheless, because of the industry's robust performance from 2020 to 2021, revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 0.8% over the past five years, reaching $241.3 billion in 2025. 2025 revenue will climb an estimated 1.0% as home price appreciation and a rebound in commercial sales volume will fuel tepid growth. The higher-for-longer interest rate environment is expected to slow the industry's growth. The high mortgage rates and escalating home prices will likely price out many potential home buyers from the market, forcing customers to rent or live in multifamily complexes. The limited new office construction will stimulate office building sales and intensify brokerage activity. The housing stock situation is expected to remain tight, with homeowners staying in their homes for longer and contributing to home price appreciation. Amid these conditions, a likely shift toward new construction and build-to-rent properties for agents and brokers is anticipated. Increased competition in the form of market saturation and disruption from online platforms will inhibit profit growth. Overall, industry revenue will gain at a CAGR of 2.3% to reach $270.8 billion in 2030.
