Mortgage delinquency rates increased by 2.4 percent for the second consecutive month in July while foreclosure inventories declined according to the latest “First Look” Mortgage Report released by Lender Processing Services (LPS), which is derived from its loan-level database of nearly 40 million loans.
The total number of loans that are 30 days or more past due, but not yet in foreclosure, climbed from 8.15 percent in June to 8.34 percent in July, a gain of 2.4, however, compared to July of 2010, the delinquency rate continued to be significantly less, with a year-over-year decline of 10.4 percent.
It was the second consecutive month that the mortgage delinquency rate has shown an increase adding an additional 195,000 delinquent mortgages since the beginning of June, an increase of 4.7 percent.
The number of properties in foreclosure decreased 0.4 percent from 2,167,000 in June to 2,156,000 in July.
