U.S. Foreclosures May Increase 20% in 2011 to Reach Peak
U.S. homes that will go into foreclosure will climb around 20% to reach a peak number in 2011, according to RealtyTrac Inc.
Rick Sharga, RealtyTrac's senior vice president, told Bloomberg, "We will peak in foreclosures and probably bottom out in pricing, and that's what we need to do in order to begin the recovery. But it's probably not going to feel good in the process."
In 2010, a record 2.87 million properties received notices of default, auction or reposession, up 2% from a year earlier. The number of foreclosures continued to climb despite a probe into questionable lending practices that saw a plunge in foreclosure filings toward the end of 2010, including a 26% drop in December.
Foreclosures have continued to drag down U.S. home prices. However, according to Fannie Mae, home values may see a rise of 0.6% this year which would be its first annual jump since its peak in 2006, after which prices have fallen by as much as 33%.
Banks seized over 1 million homes in 2010 - up 14% from a year earlier. About 3 million homes have been reposessed since the collapse of the housing market bubble. Sharga says the number could rise to 6 million by 2013 because there are still many homeowners out there who have yet to default on their loans.
He said, "What makes this almost inevitable is the fact there are 5 million seriously delinquent loans not yet in foreclosure. They've got to eventually get in the pipeline unless the homeowners cure the defaults."
