Home to the Mojave and Great Basin Deserts, Nevada is found in the west next to California, Arizona and Utah, and south of Idaho and Oregon. Obviously most known for Las Vegas, the area was originally built up because of the gold rush. Prior to that period and long ago, the region was inhabited by various Indian Tribes. Tourism has been a major industry for the Nevada economy since the 1900s, and Lake Tahoe has been a popular location with its world-class ski resorts. Nevada's largest cities are Las Vegas, Reno, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Sparks, Carson City, Elko, Boulder City, Mesquite and Fallon.

Among many distinctions that Nevada holds, such as being the only state to condone legal brothels, and an economy hugely dependent on gambling, Nevada has for some years been the state with the highest foreclosure rates. Although the state itself fluctuates in position moving throughout the top five listed, depending on the survey completed and the statistics used, cities within Nevada such as Henderson and Las Vegas have seen the highest rates when compared to other cities around the country. Sadly, at one point, in Nevada, one in ten homes was being foreclosed. It is truly a dichotomy that is difficult to understand. On one side, there is a bustling economy with millions of tourists spending billions of dollars, and then on the other side, there are neighborhoods with "for sale" and "foreclosure" signs littered all over the streets. Undoubtedly, many people need to seek Nevada mortgage refinance early on in the process, long before official proceedings start .

Reviewing old real estate listings back to 2006, it appears as though the bottom just fell out of the Nevada housing market. Houses that were previously valued at higher prices began to depreciate, and were worth as much as fifty-five percent less than when originally mortgaged. The new price drops were great to stimulate buying, but what happened to the original owners? They had mortgages and lost their homes to foreclosure. In fact, one of two scenarios happened with those mortgages. First, home owners who had purchased with little equity had nothing to work with when it came time to Nevada mortgage refinance. And second, those with equity lost it when trying to refinance, since the value of their homes decreased substantially leaving many in negative equity positions.

Another problem with Nevada is that many of the jobs are only paying the state-mandated minimum wage. So, for home buyers who scraped together their small down payments, but agreed to sign variable-rate mortgages, they were hit with huge monthly payment increases that they could never afford on their basic salaries. Once they missed one payment, the snowball effect took over. Missed or late payments meant hefty surcharges, and then, as home owners scrambled to pay the fees, the next month arrived and the money scheduled for the monthly payment went to last month's arrears. And the cycle just perpetuated until they ended up defaulting on the mortgage altogether. Without any relief of lower payments through Nevada mortgage refinance and a fixed interest rate, they had no chance of ever catching up.

But, one point that is Nevada's advantage. It continues to reinvent itself, and historically, it has been very successful at the feat. It will find new industry, and ways to stabilize its communities and rebuild.
