Quote from DrPepper:
I have read that once a person stops paying their mortgage, it can take a year or two to evict them from the home. This new "crisis" will almost certainly prolong the process even longer. How many people do you think are living in homes that are worth less than the mortgage balance, in addition to being up to their eyeballs in credit card debt and unemployed who now plan to live for free in their homes for as long as possible? I would say that the number is growing rapidly.
