Merced homeowners flock to risky loans

Merced homeowners are among the most likely in the country to have subprime mortgages -- the risky loans linked to skyrocketing foreclosure rates -- according to a survey published recently in the Wall Street Journal.

Merced ranked seventh on a nationwide list that calculated the percentage of subprime loans among homeowners in 331 cities. Subprime loans made up 21 percent of Merced's mortgages as of December 2006.

Subprime loans are made to borrowers with poor credit histories. They often include adjustable interest rates that allow borrowers to make low payments for a specified period. When the interest rate increases, payments can jump by 30 percent in some cases, which can set borrowers on a path to foreclosure.

A December 2006 study by the Center for Responsible Lending predicted that Merced would lead the nation in subprime loan foreclosures, with 25 percent of Merced's subprime borrowers projected to lose their houses.
