flag U.S. mortgage delinquency rose to 3.85% in November 2025 due to a Sunday month-end delaying payments, not broad credit stress.

flag U.S. mortgage delinquency rates rose to 3.85% in November 2025, the highest in over four years, primarily due to calendar timing as the month ended on a Sunday, delaying payment processing into December. flag The increase, which added 275,000 past-due loans, was attributed to temporary administrative effects rather than broad credit deterioration, with analysts noting similar spikes in past years under the same conditions. flag Despite a 31.5% drop in foreclosure starts from October, activity remained elevated year-over-year. flag Prepayment speeds declined sharply, and serious delinquencies rose, though regional disparities persisted, with higher rates in Louisiana and Mississippi. flag Experts say December data will clarify whether the rise is temporary.
