UFA's Five-Year House Price Forecast
UFA has provided accurate and timely house price predictions since 1990 -- the original and most credible collateral forecasts available. UFA's principals have done the prevailing research on house price forecasting, demonstrating how local economic and geographic factors determine collateral and loan performance. For mortgage lenders, the value of the underlying collateral and other geographic factors account for more than half of the variation in loan defaults and prepayments. The house price forecast is part of UFA's data suite, and has been an underlying driver in the mortgage default and prepayment analysis in the quarterly UFA Mortgage Report.
