Foreclosures: the Coming California Crash?
California foreclosure investors now have an opportunity to tap the knowledge of a 25-year real estate investing veteran who correctly predicted the last two major swings in the California real estate market and is on the verge of correctly predicting another. “Bruce Bruce Norris was dead right” about home prices in California doubling in the early 2000s after hitting bottom in 1997, said Michael Carney, Director of the Real Estate Research Council of Southern California. Carney went on to say that he thinks Norris’ latest prediction, made in early 2006, that foreclosures will soar and home prices will plummet in the next few years is also likely to be correct.

Foreclosures Begin 2007 at Two-Year High
That was up 19 percent from the previous month and up 25 percent from January 2006. After dominating the headlines with the highest state foreclosure rate for much of 2006, Colorado’s foreclosure rate dropped to fourth highest among the states thanks to a slight decrease in foreclosure activity in January. Substantial increases in foreclosure activity in Detroit and Atlanta helped drive up the foreclosure rates in Michigan and Georgia. New foreclosure activity in January hit its highest level since RealtyTrac began issuing a national foreclosure report two years ago, with 130,511 new foreclosure filings reported during the month.

Six of those states also appeared in RealtyTrac’s list of states with the highest foreclosure rates in 2006. The FBI also lists Arizona, Colorado, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada,

Clash of Cultures at CAR Expo
The opening session of what is billed as “Tech Tuesday” at the California Realtor Expo 2006 provided a somewhat unvarnished glimpse into how some Realtors are responding to real estate websites that are lifting the veil on home valuations and other previously hard-to-find real estate data. In short, some Realtors take offense at such sites, which they see as giving consumers a false belief that much of the research involved in a real estate transaction can be done without the help of a Realtor. “I LONG BEACH, Calif. — I don’t think value is being inserted,” said an impassioned

It warns cities in California, Nevada, New Jersey, New York and Michigan, as well as the greater Washington, D.C. The center offers up proposed solutions to curb increasing foreclosures, including due diligence A new study released yesterday by the Center for Responsible Lending projects that one out of five subprime mortgages originated in the past two years will end in foreclosure, costing homeowners as much as $164 billion. “This rate is nearly double the projected rate of subprime loans made in 2002, and it exceeds the worst foreclosure experience in the modern mortgage market, which occurred during the “Oil Patch” disaster of the 1980s.
