The sale of $16.7 billion in nonperforming loans by the U.S. Housing and Urban Development Department helped the owners of about 16,700 homes avoid foreclosure, the agency said.

About 44 percent of resolutions resulted in the prevention of home seizures, and 16 percent of resolved loans were reperforming, with borrowers making timely payments.
