You’ve heard by now that one-quarter of U.S. homeowners with a mortgage are “underwater” on their loans, owing more than their houses are worth.

That percentage is likely to grow. Deutsche Bank predicts nearly half of mortgaged homeowners, or 25 million households, will be underwater by the time the housing recession ends. That’s grim, but the flip side is that most U.S. homeowners still have equity in their homes — sometimes a lot of equity.

Mortgage Loans – Headwind For Lenders As Fannie, Freddie Bounce Back Loans

In 2008, Fannie Mae bounced back roughly a quarter of the loans on 94,652 real-estate owned properties, or REOs, properties that have been reclaimed by Fannie after foreclosure. Through Sept. 30, Fannie Mae REO properties totaled 98,428. Many of these loans are plain vanilla prime 30-year fixed-rate mortgages, underscoring the challenges facing even the most creditworthy borrowers in the economic slump. “We expect the amount of our outstanding repurchase

Home Equity Loans: Take a Look at the Largest Costs

The single largest cost associated with most home-equity loans is interest. When comparing loans, keep in mind that the annual percentage rate (APR) is calculated differently on a traditional home-equity loan than on a home-equity line of credit – the first has a fixed interest rate and the second has a variable interest rate. The APR for a home-equity line of credit is calculated based on the loan’s interest rate. The APR for a traditional home-equity loan generally includes the costs of initiating the loan. Because of this difference, a direct comparison between fixed-rate loans and variable-rate loans cannot be made.
