ICE First Look at Mortgage Performance: Delinquencies Hold Steady in April as Cures Rebound for the Second Consecutive Month
Intercontinental Exchange reports that mortgage performance remained stable from March to April, with past-due loans staying below pre-pandemic levels as cures rebounded.
Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE), a leading global provider of financial market technology and data powering global capital markets, has released its April 2026 First Look report. The report, which tracks mortgage delinquency, foreclosure, and prepayment trends, reveals that mortgage performance remained broadly stable between March and April. During this period, the overall share of past-due loans was unchanged and remained below pre-pandemic levels.[1][2]
According to Andy Walden, the Head of Mortgage and Housing Market, the steady performance of mortgages was supported by a rebound in cures. This recovery in cures marked the second consecutive month of improvement, helping to keep overall delinquency rates stable.[1]
