Lender Processing Service (LPS) released its monthly “First Look” Mortgage Report for December 2010 yesterday which is derived from its loan-level database of nearly 40 million loans. The month-end data shows a rise in foreclosure inventories with a slight decrease in the delinquency rate.

The “First Look” report contains highlights of the company’s forthcoming Mortgage Monitor report which will provide a more in-depth review including an analysis of data supplemented by in-depth charts and graphs that reflect trend and point-in-time observations.

Early highlights of the report include:

Total U.S. loan delinquency rate (loans 30 or more days past due, but not in foreclosure): 8.83%

Month-over-month change in delinquency rate: -2.1%

Year-over-year change in delinquency rate: -17.9%

Total U.S foreclosure pre-sale inventory rate: 4.15%

Number of properties in foreclosure pre-sale inventory: (B) 2,196,000
