Loans 101 – An Overview of the Loan Process

Presented by Eric Matz of Coldwell Banker Rancho Bernardo and Jim Endicott of Endicott Financial Services

Owning your own home provides several benefits. In addition to the satisfaction of being a homeowner, you can build equity, enjoy tax deductions*, say “good bye” to your landlord and take control of your living environment.

Before you should even look at buying a home, you should know how much you can afford to pay for the home of your dreams. And to do that, you need to contact a lender and get “preapproved” for a loan. But do you understand the loan process?

San Diego County‘s notices of default, the first step in the foreclosure process, fell to their lowest level in 31 months in May, numbers from DataQuick Information Systems show.

Foreclosures in the region also declined, said Thursday’s report from the real-estate tracking company.

San Diego County recorded 1,353 defaults in May, down 16.6 percent from a year ago and down 6.8 percent from April, DataQuick reported. The number of defaults dropped to its lowest number since October 2008, when 1,112 were posted. It peaked at 3,832 in March 2009.

Foreclosures dropped to 868 in May, 15 percent lower than a year ago and 8.2 percent lower than in April. They peaked at 2,004, in July 2008.

Mark Riedy, executive director of University of San Diego‘s real estate center, said banks continue to be “judicious” about pushing homes through the foreclosure process because they don’t want too many losses on their books. Lenders have been controlling that flow also because too large of an infusion could “further depress prices,” Riedy said.
