As of June 16, 4.6 million homeowners remain in forbearance plans, representing 8.7% of all active mortgages, down from 8.8% last week. Together, they represent just over $1 trillion in unpaid principal ($1,012B). Some 6.8% of all GSE-backed loans and 12.1% of all FHA/VA loans are currently in forbearance plans.
