DELINQUENT LOANS IN NEVADA
The number of home loans in default or foreclosure during the second quarter of the past two years in Nevada has risen significantly, based on the Mortgage Bankers Association's tracking of more than 500,000 home loans in the state:
2007 2006
All loans past due 4.41% 2.80%
Loans 30 days past due 2.53% 1.88%
Loans 60 days past due 0.92% 0.50%
Loans 90 or more days past 0.96% 0.41%
Loans in foreclosure 1.57% 0.45%
Delinquencies are significantly higher among subprime borrowers, who often have troubled credit and get only higher-interest loans, than they are among the prime borrowers who can command the lowest interest rates. Subprime loans make up 19.6 percent of the Nevada home loans tracked by the Mortgage Banking Association, compared with 19.2 percent a year ago.
