There was a modest decline in hurricane-related delinquent mortgages in February, a sign that there are lingering problems in the affected markets.

The percentage of flood damage to residential properties from Hurricane Harvey that is uninsured is turning out to be a little higher than earlier estimates.

Home values grew during 2017 at their fastest pace in four years and the same supply and demand dynamics behind that increase remain in place for 2018.

Early-stage mortgage delinquencies had their largest year-over-year gain during September in over eight years, a direct result of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.

The majority of borrowers impacted by Hurricane Harvey have a significant amount of equity, while many in Hurricane Irma disaster areas have limited or negative equity, according to Black Knight Financial Services.

Mortgage delinquencies in areas affected by Hurricane Harvey last month were 16% higher than in July, according to Black Knight Financial Services.

Mortgage investors want Freddie Mac to align its policy with Fannie Mae's when it comes to how delinquencies related to Hurricane Harvey affect credit risk transfer deals.

Hurricane Irma could potentially affect more private-label mortgage securities collateral than any other recent storm.
