The number of Dallas-area homeowners seriously behind in the mortgage payments has risen to almost 6 percent.
Researchers at First American CoreLogic said Thursday that 5.93 percent of local home mortgage holders in December were at least 90 days late with their payments. That’s up almost two percentage points from a year earlier.
But the percentage of Dallas-area residents who are late with their home loan payments is well below the 8.4 percent nationwide 90-day delinquency rate, the report said.
About 1.4 percent of homes in the area with mortgages were already in foreclosure in December. That compares with a 3.24 percent nationwide foreclosure rate.
In the Fort Worth area, 6.06 percent of home borrowers are behind in payments and 1.47 percent were already in foreclosure in December
