Best Answer

The total stock of mortgages outstanding in the US is about $10 trillion. However, the market value of these mortgages (whether still on banks' balance sheets or securitised and embedded in RMBS (Residential Mortgage Backed Securities)) is in reality lower by $1-1.2 trillion, due to the fact that U.S. homeowners can walk away from their mortgage leaving the lender with "no recourse". In other words, book mortgage value = about $10 trillion, while actual value is more likely $8.8 trillion to $9 trillion, due to losses on foreclosures.

What is value of homes that have no mortgage in US?

The value of a HOME, that has no mortgage has the same Real Estate market value as one which does have a MTG. The value is assessed by the market conditions at any given time. The most recent 30-90 day sold properties in the same subdivision with similar qualities would provide a current value to all the homes and not just those that are free and clear of a Mtg. An appraiser would give the same Real Estate value to a home with or without a Mortgage attached.
