2010 Likely to Be Up and Down For Bank Foreclosures in Massachusetts


Posted on Mar 09, 2010

March 9, 2010 - Washington, D.C. - Despite the nationwide onslaught of wrongful foreclosures that devastate and displace families, Massachusetts is expected to experience a brief decline in the number of foreclosures this spring.

Huliq
reports that in March, Massachusetts will likely see fewer home foreclosures than in recent months, even as most other states notice an increase. This may be because some lenders are working with homeowners via the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP).

Homeowners in Massachusetts are not out of the woods yet, as the number of deeds recently increased and unemployment continues to be high. Ideally, the banks and lending agencies will fulfill their promise to work with struggling homeowners to save their properties. If this doesn't happen, it's likely the number of foreclosures could again begin to rise.

Despite the positive outlook, it is too late for many homeowners who have unexpectedly lost their homes after lenders were not willing to work with them. In January, the HAMP reports say that out of 21,435 mortgages, just 2,788 have been modified by lenders, illustrating the continuing uphill battle that homeowners and tenants face when confronting the potential for a bank foreclosure in Massachusetts.
