December 16, 2020 |
Cancun, Q.R. — A report from the Institute of the National Housing Fund for Workers (Infonavit) detailed that in Quintana Roo, more than 23,000 mortgage holders are at risk of losing their homes.
According to their portfolio, the 2020 year began with 15,831 homeowners overdue on mortgage payments, but now, 10 months into the year, the Instituto del Fondo Nacional de la Vivienda para los Trabajadores (Infonavit) says that number has climbed to exceed 23,000.
The agency says that the 23,477 overdue mortgages are homeowners that are at least 90 days in arrears. They say that extensions are being granted to some people who have lost their jobs. Infonavit reports that those extensions make up another 13,641 files with payment problems, a figure they say, was 9,625 in January of 2019.
