ICE Mortgage Monitor flagged mortgage holder equity at a record USD 18 trillion in Q2, lifted by renewed home price gains.
Annual home price growth rose to 1.5% in July, a 14-month high, though momentum softened as mortgage rates moved higher.
Tappable equity totaled USD 11.7 trillion across 47,500,000 borrowers, averaging about USD 212,000 per borrower.
Underwater borrowers climbed 44% year-over-year to 813,000, concentrated among recent-vintage FHA and VA loans.
Conforming purchase borrowers with similar credit profiles saw a 38-basis-point rate spread in 2026, adding about USD 5,790 in five-year costs on a USD 300,000 loan.
