Housing Finance at a Glance is a monthly reference guide for mortgage and housing market data. It includes over 80 curated and updated figures describing current trends in the US housing finance market, including housing affordability, credit availability, serious delinquency rates, and mortgage insurance activity.
These trends stood out most to Housing Finance Policy researchers from this chartbook edition:
- House prices continue to slow, partially reflecting outright declines in the South (p. 26).
- The share of homes in negative or near-negative equity rose, reflecting a jump in the share in near-negative equity (p. 29).
- Serious delinquency rates overall remain low and continue to fall (p. 29).
