The share of seriously delinquent mortgages fell compared with the first quarter of 2024, while servicers initiated 10,667 new foreclosures, an increase from both the previous quarter and a year earlier. Servicers completed 7,889 loan modifications, up 7.6 percent from 7,332 in the previous quarter; 92.1 percent of modifications were combination modifications involving multiple affordability actions such as interest rate reductions and term extensions. The report covers mortgage performance through March 31, 2025 and includes about 10.9 million first-lien mortgages totaling USD 2.7 trillion in principal balances, representing 20.1 percent of US residential mortgage debt outstanding.
