It's probably too early to tell, but the wave of NODs appears to be cresting a bit. At this point, I expect REOs to start picking up steam, now that many of the NODs have run their 90 day course. I also expect NOD activity to be elevated for some time as the 3 & 5 yr (Option) ARM loans issued in 2005 - 2007 begin to readjust. Low interest rates won't protect these folks forever. Hopefully they are taking advantage of low interest rates and are refinancing into a fixed rate (if they are able).
I would really love to see an updated chart of when the different loans begin to adjust (taking into account refinancing etc).....like the chart
here which seems super scary till you look
here and see the perspective of what we have already been through (we are around month 35 if I read the chart correctly).....
this one is the latest I have found and doesn't seem all that different from the original one (all links courtesy of
Lander's Blog).
