Foreclosure Laws May Add POS Cost.(Brief Article)
A study by a Federal Reserve System economist suggests that states with "defaulter-friendly" foreclosure laws impose costs on borrowers at the time of loan origination.
Using data from adjacent census tracts that happen to be in different states, Fed economist Karen Pence found that the average loan size at origination was 4% to 6% lower in states where foreclosure laws are protective of borrowers, suggesting that these consumer protection laws impose costs on borrowers at the time of loan origination.
In her study, Ms. Pence noted that losses on foreclosures typically range from 30% to 60% of the outstanding loan balances because legal fees, foregone interest and property expenses usually exceed the revenue gained from repossessing and selling the property.
