NEW BEDFORD, MA - Yesterday, mortgage insurer PMI, Inc. put out their fall report, and New England does not fair well. The report lists the New Bedford to Providence real estate market as being one of the top ten most dismal markets for the next two years. New England and Southern California for the last 10 years had hottest markets, with the value of real estate reaching ridiculous levels during that period. According to PMI for the New Bedford to Providence market has lost an average of 8.78% in 2006. Being number 7 on the top ten list with a score of 59% means that PMI expects the area to suffer a reduction in real estate value of over 10% on at least 59% of all properties sold. This can put borrowers in the uncomfortable position of having an upside down mortgage. This is especially likely if the down payment is small.
