Forbes has compiled a list of the riskiest cities for homeowners, which have the highest percentage of borrowers who are at least three months late on their mortgage payments.

Check it out:

1. Las Vegas, Nevada
2. Riverside, California
3. Stockton, California
4. Modesto, California
5. Bakersfield, California
6. Vallejo, California
7. Orlando, Florida
8. Memphis, Tennessee
9. Miami, Florida
10. Fresno, California

“Sin City” has the dubious distinction of topping this list; however, California has six cities in the top 10, underscoring the distressing situation on the left coast.

The good news is that the “Golden State” recently pledged $700 million to prevent about 40,000 foreclosures. In fact, the program, “Keep Your Home,” is the nation’s “biggest principle reduction program,” trimming mortgages by up to $50,000 each.

Foreclosure.com Director of Education, Linda Yates, will be featured on a panel of knowledgeable experts at the ERA® ‘Saving the Dream of Homeownership’ Seminar, which is scheduled for the Sheraton Music City Hotel in Nashville, Tenn., on Friday, Jan. 15, 2010.

Yates and the other presenters will address the needs, questions and concerns of consumers regarding the purchase of foreclosed and/or short sale homes. In addition, information on how to prevent foreclosure will also be made available.

“The clock is ticking to capitalize on the best real estate conditions buyers and investors have come across in literally decades,” said Yates. “Record-low home prices and interest rates, as well as limited-time government tax incentives, have created the ‘perfect storm’ for future homeowners.”

The educational seminar, which is free to attend and open to the public, will be held from 3 to 6 p.m. ET. Seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
