FORECLOSURES IN 2022?

If I wait long enough, will you see a glut of foreclosures?

The simple answer is no. The experts don't predict foreclosures because most homeowners have equity. 62% of homes have mortgages, and 38% are paid off. Of all the houses in the US, only 1 out of 47 has significant negative equity. This means that if someone can't pay their mortgage, they can sell it, get their equity, and move on with their life.

If people have $50K, $100K in equity they don't let their home get foreclosed, do they? This differed from the great recession of 2008 and 2009 when as many as 40% of homes with mortgages had negative equity.

Should you buy now or wait?
I see two big reasons to wait to buy. 1. You can't afford the payment/can't get a loan. 2. You're not planning on staying here in San Diego for three years or more. If you had bought the average house last year of $931K, it would be worth $1.1 mill, $169K in equity in a year.
If San Diego is where you want to be long-term and you want to lock in low-interest rates, buy now.
Get your foot in the door, so you can start to realize appreciation, income tax savings, and equity from the loan buydown.
