A blog about the economy and the Sacramento-area real estate market.

For those who really get into the details here is the new 2nd Quarter look at mortgage risk in California from First American CoreLogic. This takes some studying, but you'll be well rewarded. A couple of bottom lines:

  • California's level of risk rose twice as fast as the national risk.
  • California alone accounts for eight of the top 10 markets, including the top four - Los Angeles, Sacramento, Riverside and Stockton.
  •   As of Q1 2008, California home prices had declined by 18% from the previous year and all 28 California markets had price declines.
Finally, guess who has the state's least risky market for mortgages:It's Chico!
