Wealthy Massachusetts Communities Experience Foreclosure

March 12, 2010 - Dover, Mass. - While public perception suggests that home foreclosure only affects middle-class or lower-income residents, statistics say otherwise. In fact, many affluent Massachusetts neighborhoods are experiencing the problem of wrongful foreclosure. 

The Boston Globe reports that some homes in Massachusetts that are worth close to $1 million are currently on auction because their owners simply cannot make the mortgage payments. In some cases, the homeowners had tried everything they could to save their homes, including a loan modification.

Not every bank or lender is willing to help a distressed homeowner, and these individuals may find themselves losing a home that they have had in their family for years.

Foreclosure petitions in Norfolk County rose by 33.5% last year. On a bright note, there were 17.4 fewer home auctions, which means that some homeowners were able to save their homes at the last minute. Unfortunately, the number of petitions is a precursor to the number of upcoming home foreclosures, which means that there are likely many more to come.

Officials claim that previous foreclosures were mostly due to banks handing out subprime loans to nearly anyone, including those who could not normally afford to buy a house. Many recent foreclosures are due to job loss or long-term illness, which is likely why people who were otherwise unaffected by the subprime loan fiasco are now losing their homes.
