Foreclosure has been around for as long as people have bought or owned property. However, with the economy taking a turn for the worst in the recent year, foreclosures of family owned properties have hit an all-time high. Many of the current foreclosures have been a result of sub-prime mortgages, with more people getting loans who did not qualify for the loan. Most of those loans were made with ARM (adjustable rate mortgages) and as initial payment terms expired, rates on these mortgages shot up and so did the payments on the loans. People who could not afford the payments initially really found themselves in a tight spot for sure.
