One out of five Utah Homeowners with a mortgage was in a "negative-equity" sitution in the second quarter according to CoreLogic. In Utah, 20% of people with a mortgage owed more on their homes than they were worth, and more than 6% were getting close to being "underwater".
Compared to other states, the percentage is relatively mild. In Nevada, 68% were in a negative-equity situation followed by Arizona at 50%, Florida 46%, Michigan 38% and California 33%.
