I saw this foreclosure article yesterday and if you read it there is some important context
Things might be trending in the wrong direction but we aren't at financial crisis level foreclosure panics just yet
quote:
At the peak of the Great Recession, more than 4% of mortgages were in foreclosure, according to Rick Sharga, CEO of CJ Patrick Co., a real estate market intelligence firm. Today, less than 0.5% are in foreclosure, well below the historic average of between 1% and 1.5%. In addition, 4% of mortgages are delinquent; at the peak of the financial crisis, almost 12% were.
“So, no foreclosure tsunami to worry about,” said Sharga. “That said, there are a few areas of concern. [Federal Housing Administration] delinquencies are over 11%, and account for 52% of all seriously delinquent loans; we’re likely to see more FHA loans in foreclosure in 2026.”

I've been blessed (sarcasm) with DR Horton throwing up houses in a neighborhood that now connects to my, very NOT DR Horton, neighborhood. People are buying them up quickly. They start in the low $400's and interest rates are still around 6 last time I checked.
I feel like these FHA and other government mortgage programs are going to drive us over the edge like they did in 2008.

Well boy wonder, most of the job losses are from necessary federal job cuts and of course foreclosures are up. They were heavily handcuffed during Covid era policies. I know in your vast economic wisdom you can understand this but how high do you think inflation would be right now with millions of more immigrants competing for limited resources and trillions more in government spending to pay for said immigrants? You liberal fools act like this is some gotcha on Trump when they are all necessary evils. What you are really saying is that it is too difficult to try to fix so let’s just keep doing what we are doing because I don’t want to be inconvenienced, let the other generations worry about it

How many of those are H1B recipients?
Brother lives north of Dallas in a former affluent hood.
The H1B'S have taken over in the last 8-10 years and the neighborhood has lost tremendously.
It's cultural as these people living in these formerly nice, expensive homes treat them like where they came from .
Dare I say it....a shithole.

Unemployment and inflation are also significantly lower right now than in 2008 (although it's always hard to trust government data).

According to new reports everyday prices are leveling off. Eggs, milk, and bagels, the heart of your household budget, are cheaper than they were in spring. Wage growth is outpacing the cost of many goods for the first time since 2020.
Manufacturing payrolls are steady, gas exports are booming, and for the first time since the pandemic, more small businesses are hiring than closing.

As inflation lowered to under 2% unemployment grew.
I find it odd people want what we had 2008-10.

All of h1bs in the country would make up roughly 8% of just Dallas. I am willing to bet they don't all live in the Dallas area.

this is a load of propaganda
quote:
While fewer business owners reported higher sales levels in the past three months, there was more positive news on the inflation front with a smaller percentage of firms raising their prices.
“Optimism among small businesses declined slightly in October as owners report lower sales and reduced profits,” said NFIB Chief Economist Bill Dunkelberg. “Additionally, many firms are still navigating a labor shortage and want to hire but are having difficulty doing so, with labor quality being the top issue for Main Street.”
quote:
“Of the 56% of owners hiring or trying to hire in October, 88% reported few or no qualified applicants for the positions they were trying to fill,” the survey said. “A seasonally adjusted net 15% of owners plan to create new jobs in the next three months, down 1 point from September. This marks the first decline since hiring plans started to increase in May 2025.”
