Foreclosures could become a problem, size of impact will be more like 2015 than 2008
The Bad News:• Potentially 600,000 foreclosures nationwide• That suggests 60,000 in California• Currently a moratorium through end of 2020• Eventually delinquencies will be reckoned with• Serious delinquencies up a lot in June• Could impact prices (but single digit impacts)
Reasons to Be Hopeful:• Government on board this time• 5-year + workouts• Lots of home equity/minimal cashing out• No NINJA loans/option ARMs
