What happens in the BA when mortgage payments are scheduled to go down, and people still default?

  I have an interesting story.

My wife has a co-worker that has defaulted on her (the co-workers) mortgage.  She lives in San Jose, and makes good money.

So, she instead of going through foreclosure, the bank has agreed to
do a short sale.

The woman stopped making payments a long time ago.

Her interest only loan, is due to reset in may.

The rate will go DOWN.

She is STILL defaulting.  Even with a lower rate.

Now how is THAT going to affect the local BA fortress markets?

Get a clue MarkInSF,

Marin? Are you serious?

You better do some research.

Marin has 1,300+ defaults in some state of foreclosure, and more are coming.

Santa Clara has 12,000 +

Alameda has 15,000

San Mateo has 3,800 +

All of these numbers are according to RealtyTrac. Check it yourself. For free.

Also, this doesn't count the shadow inventory.
