STATISTICS  OF  FARMS,  HOMES,  AND  MORTGAGES. 

MORTGAGES-SUMMARY    FOR   THE    UNITED  STATES. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  THE  INTERIOR, 

Census  Office, 
Washington,  D.  O,  June  2,  1894. 
Sir: 

A  tabulation  of  the  real  estate  mortgage  statistics  collected  by  the  Census  Office  is  now  completed,  and  this  final 
bulletin  is  issued  to  acquaint  the  public  with  the  chief  results  of  the  investigation.  These  are  contained  in  15 
tables  herewith  presented. 

Table  1  exhibits  the  real  estate  mortgage  movement  in  the  various  states  and  territories,  with  a  summary  for 
the  United  States  during  the  10  years  1880-1889.  During  that  time  9,517,747  real  estate  mortgages,  stating  amount 
of  debt  incurred,  were  made  in  the  United  States,  representing  an  incurred  indebtedness  of  $12,094,877,793.  The 
number  of  mortgages  made  during  one  year  increased  from  643,143  in  1880  to  1,226,323  in  1889,  or  90.68  per  cent, 
and  the  yearly  incurred  indebtedness  increased  from  $710,888,504  in  1880  to  $1,752,568,274  in  1889,  or  146.53  per 
cent. 

With  regard  to  mortgages  on  acre  tracts,  the  number  made  during  the  10  years  was  4,747,078,  representing  an 
incurred  indebtedness  of  $4,896,771,112.  The  number  of  these  mortgages  made  in  1880  was  370,984;  in  1889, 
525,094,  an  increase  of  41.54  per  cent;  while  the  incurred  indebtedness  increased  from  $342,566,477  in  1880  to 
$585,729,719  in  1889,  an  increase  of  70.98  per  cent. 

The  increase  was  relatively  larger  in  the  case  of  mortgages  on  lots.  They  numbered  4,770,669  during  the  10 
years,  and  the  indebtedness  incurred  under  them  amounted  to  $7,198,106,681.  From  1880  to  1889  the  annual 
number  made  increased  from  272,159  to  701,229,  an  increase  of  157.65  per  cent.  During  the  same  time  the  amount 
of  annual  indebtedness  incurred  increased  from  $368,322,027  to  $1,166,838,555,  an  increase  of  216.80  per  cent. 

During  the  decade  622,855,091  acres  were  covered  by  4,758,268  mortgages  stating  and  not  stating  the  amount 
of  indebtedness  incurred  under  them ;  the  number  of  acres  covered  by  mortgage  in  1880  was  42,743,013  ;  in  1889, 
70,678,257,  an  increase  of  65.36  per  cent. 

In  the  case  of  lots  covered  by  mortgage  the  increase  from  1880  to  1889  was  198.25  per  cent,  the  number  covered 
by  mortgages  stating  and  not  stating  amount  of  indebtedness  in  the  former  year  being  429,955 ;  in  the  latter  year, 
1,282,334. 

At  the  end  of  the  decade,  January  1,  1890,  the  real  estate  mortgage  indebtedness  amounted  to  $6,019,679,985, 
represented  by  4,777,698  mortgages.  These  mortgages  are  divided  into  two  classes,  as  follows :  mortgages  on  acres, 
2,303,061;  amount  of  indebtedness,  $2,209,148,431;  mortgages  on  lots,  2,474,637;  amount  of  indebtedness, 
$3,810,531,554.  Number  of  acres  covered  by  existing  mortgages,  273,352,109  ;  number  of  lots,  4,161,138.  These 
numbers  and  details  for  the  states  and  territories  will  be  found  in  Table  2. 

New  York  is  conspicuously  prominent  as  having  a  real  estate  mortgage  indebtedness  of  $1,607,874,301,  which 
is  26.71  per  cent  of  this  class  of  indebtedness  in  the  United  States.     Nevada  has  the  smallest  amount  of  indebtedness 
of  this  sort,  namely,  $2,194,995,  an  amount  that  is  exceeded  by  the  existing  mortgage  indebtedness  of  each  county 
in  the  state  of  New  Y'ork,  except  two.

2  FARMS,  HOMES,  AND  MORTGAGES. 

It  is  computed  that  the  average  life  of  a  mortgage  in  the  United  States  is  4.660  years ;  of  a  mortgage  on  acres, 
4.540  years  ;  of  a  mortgage  on  lots,  4.749  years.  The  longer  life  in  the  case  of  both  classes  of  mortgages  is  found  in 
New  England,  New  York,  and  New  Jersey ;  the  shorter  life  in  the  south  and  in  the  newly  settled  regions  west  of 
the  Mississippi  river. 

Since  mortgages  in  force  were  made,  12.68  per  cent  of  the  original  amount  of  indebtedness  incurred  under  them 
has  been  extinguished  by  partial  payments;  in  the  case  of  mortgages  on  acres,  11.67  per  cent;  on  lots,  13.25  per 
cent.  The  percentage  of  partial  payments  is  highest  in  the  south  and  lowest  in  the  more  newly  settled  regions. 
Table  3  contains  the  foregoing  figures  and  also  the  corresponding  results  for  the  various  states  and  territories. 

Subject  to  all  the  difficulties  that  beset  any  attempt  to  determine  what  proportion  of  the  true  taxed  real  estate 
value  of  the  United  States  is  covered  by  existing  real  estate  mortgage  indebtedness,  the  fourth,  fifth,  and  sixth 
columns  of  Table  4  are  offered.  It  appears  that  the  real  estate  mortgage  indebtedness  in  force  in  the  United  States 
is  16.67  per  cent  of  the  true  value  of  all  taxed  real  estate  and  untaxed  mines.  If  Mayor  Gilroy's  estimate  of 
$3,495,725,018  as  the  true  value  of  real  estate  in  New  York  city  is  accepted,  the  foregoing  percentage  is  reduced  to 
16.15,  and  the  percentage  for  New  York  state  is  reduced  from  30.62  to  25.06. 

In  30  states  the  debt  on  acres  is  12.67  per  cent  of  the  true  value  of  all  taxed  acres  and  untaxed  mines,  and  in 
these  states  the  mortgage  debt  on  lots  is  13.96  per  cent  of  the  true  value  of  all  taxed  lots,  mortgaged  and  not 
mortgaged.     These  percentages  are  in  Table  4. 

In  Table  5  the  attempt  is  made  to  determine  how  nearly  the  greatest  possible  real  estate  mortgage  debt  has 
been  reached  by  the  existing  incumbrance  in  the  various  states  and  territories.  Upon  the  assumption  that  all  taxed 
real  estate  can  be  incumbered  for  two-thirds  of  its  true  value  without  increasing  the  rate  of  interest  to  cover 
additional  risk,  it  follows  that  25.00  per  cent  of  the  real  estate  mortgage  debt  limit  has  been  reached  in  the  United 
States.  A  computation,  including  Mayor  Gilroy's  estimate  above  mentioned,  reduces  the  foregoing  percentage  to 
24.22,  and  the  percentage  for  New  York  state  from  45.93  to  37.59.  In  Kansas  40.24  per  cent  of  the  debt  limit  has 
been  reached ;  in  New  Jersey  39.27  per  cent.  The  smaller  percentages  are  found  in  the  south  and  in  the  Eocky 
Mountain  region. 

The  mortgage  debt  in  force  per  capita  in  the  United  States  is  $96 ;  the  three  larger  state  averages  (omitting 
the  District  of  Columbia)  are  $268  in  New  York,  $206  in  Colorado,  and  $200  in  California,  The  smaller  ones  are 
found  in  the  south  and  the  Eocky  Mountain  region. 

The  average  population  to  each  mortgage  in  force  in  various  states,  the  percentage  of  increase  of  debt  incurred 
in  1889  over  1880,  and  the  average  unpaid  amount  of  each  mortgage  in  force  will  be  found  in  Table  4. 

Table  6  shows  the  various  ratios  between  mortgages  in  force  and  the  number  of  acres  and  lots  covered  by  them. 
In  41  states  28.86  per  cent  of  the  taxed  acres  are  covered  by  mortgages  in  force.  The  largest  proportion  of 
mortgaged  acres  is  in  Kansas,  where  60.32  per  cent  of  the  total  number  of  taxed  acres  are  mortgaged.  Nebraska 
stands  next  with  54.73  per  cent;  South  Dakota  third,  with  51.76  per  cent. 

In  the  5  states,  Illinois,  Kansas,  Missouri,  Nebraska,  and  South  Carolina,  23.99  per  cent  of  the  taxed  lots  are 
covered  by  mortgages  in  force. 

The  average  amount  of  debt  in  force  against  acres  to  each  mortgaged  acre  in  the  United  States  is  $8.08  ;  of  debt 
in  force  against  lots  to  each  mortgaged  lot,  $916 ;  there  are  119  acres  covered  by  each  mortgage  in  force  against 
acres,  and  1.68  lots  by  each  mortgage  in  force  against  lots. 

The  average  annual  rates  of  interest  to  which  existing  mortgages  are  subject  have  been  computed  and  the 
results  are  presented  in  Table  8.  The  average  rate  for  all  mortgages  in  the  United  States  is  6.60  per  cent;  for 
mortgages  on  acres,  7.36  per  cent;  for  mortgages  on  lots,  6.16  per  cent.  These  rates  make  the  annual  interest 
charge  on  the  existing  real  estate  mortgage  debt  of  the  United  States  amount  to  $397,442,792 ;  on  the  debt  in  force 
against  acres,  $162,652,944  ;  on  lots,  $234,789,848. 

On  each  mortgage  in  force  in  the  United  States  the  average  annual  interest  charge  is  $83 ;  on  each  mortgage  in 
force  against  acres,  $71 ;  on  each  mortgage  in  force  against  lots,  $95.  These  numbers,  with  details  for  states  and 
territories,  are  in  Table  7. 

Table  8  exhibits  the  number  and  amount  of  real  estate  mortgages  made  during  the  10  years  1880-1889  belonging 
to  specified  classes  of  amounts,  and  in  this  table  it  appears  that  6.03  per  cent  of  the  number  of  mortgages  made 
during  that  time  were  for  amounts  of  less  than  $100  each ;  while  45.17  per  cent  of  the  entire  number  were  for 
amounts  of  less  than  $500,  6S.54  per  cent  of  the  entire  number  for  amounts  of  less  than  $1,000,  27.41  per  cent  of  the 
entire  number  for  amounts  of  $1,000  and  under  $5,000  each,  and  4.05  per  cent  of  the  entire  number  were  for 
amounts  of  $5,000  and  over. 

All  the  rates  of  interest  to  which  the  real  estate  mortgages  made  in  the  United  States  during  the  decade  were 
subject  are  exhibited  in  Table  9,  which  is  a  summary  for  the  United  States  without  state  details. 

As  appears  in  Table  10,  41.89  per  cent  of  the  real  estate  mortgage  indebtedness  incurred  in  the  United  States 
duriug  the  decade  was  subject  to  a  6  per  cent  rate  of  interest;  16.06  per  cent  of  the  debt  incurred  was  subject  to 
rates  less  than  6  per  cent;  42.05  per  cent  of  the  debt  incurred  was  subject  to  rates  greater  than  6  per  cent;  and 


MORTGAGES— SUMMARY  FOR  THE  UNITED   STATES.  3 

14.41  per  cent  of  the  debt  incurred  was  subject  to  rates  greater  than  8  per  cent.  Further  details  for  the  United 
States  and  also  for  the  various  states  and  territories  are  contained  in  Table  10,  and  results  in  similar  form  are 
presented  in  Tables  11  and  12  for  mortgages  on  acres  and  on  lots. 

Average  annual  rates  of  interest  for  the  10  years  of  the  decade  are  presented  in  Table  13  for  all  the  states  and 
territories.  The  results  of  the  computations  are  that  the  average  rate  of  interest  on  real  estate  mortgages  declined 
from  7.14  per  cent  in  1880  to  6.75  per  cent  in  1889,  with  some  interruptions  to  the  continuity  of  the  decline  in  the 
meantime. 

In  Table  14  it  appears  that  the  average  rate  of  interest  on  mortgages  on  acres  declined  from  7.62  per  cent  in 
1880  to  7.52  per  cent  in  1889,  subject  to  interruptions  to  the  continuity  of  the  meantime;  and  in  Table  15  it 
appears  that  the  average  rate  of  interest  on  the  mortgages  on  lots  declined  from  6.69  per  cent  in  1880  to  6.37  per 
cent  in  1889,  with  some  annual  interruptions  to  the  continuity  of  the  decline. 

For  the  sake  of  including  the  table  in  this  final  bulletin  concerning  real  estate  mortgages,  Table  16  is  reprinted 
from  Extra  Census  Bulletin  No.  64  to  show  the  objects  for  which  real  estate  mortgages  are  made.  These  objects 
were  ascertained  by  personal  inquhw  in  102  counties  in  various  parts  of  the  union ;  and  in  these  counties  it  was 
discovered  that  80.13  per  cent  of  the  number  of  mortgages,  rej>resenting  82.56  per  cent  of  the  original  amount  of 
mortgages  in  force,  were  made  to  secure  purchase  money  and  to  make  improvements  when  not  combined  with  other 
objects;  and  that  89.82  per  cent  of  the  number  of  mortgages,  representing  94.37  per  cent  of  the  original  amount 
of  existing  indebtedness,  were  made  to  secure  purchase  money,  to  make  improvements,  to  invest  in  business,  and 
to  buy  the  more  durable  kinds  of  personal  property,  when  these  objects  were  not  combined  with  other  objects. 

Very  respectfully,
