&#13

Though foreclosure prices have lately decreased, these statistics are in comparison to historical higher rates of foreclosure in the final four years.

Foreclosure prices: 11.9% (Latinos), 9.8% (African Americans) five% (Whites) (Center for Responsible Lending)&#13

Approximately 23% of all Home owners are at the moment underwater (Multiple sources) &#13

The recidivism price on loan modifications going back into default is higher (A number of sources) and&#13
