Foreclosures up 13 percent in February
RealtyTrac released our February 2006 foreclosure numbers today, and they show U.S. Texas and Florida were on top in terms of sheer number of foreclosures. For some people, the escalating numbers are evidence that supports their belief that a housing bubble exists and is about to burst. We dont see these numbers foreclosures increasing for the third month in a row. We show 117,259 properties nationwide entered some stage of foreclosure in February, a 13 percent increase from the previous month and a 68 percent increase from February 2005.

A new report shows a strong correlation between slow home priceappreciation and high foreclosure rates, although its clear thecorrelation does not involve a direct cause-and-effect relationship.

Florida Homeowners Overconfident Despite Foreclosures?
Between those two extremes, other concerns included: a burst of the housing bubble, rising mortgage rates and depreciating home values. That report showed a 24 percent drop in home sales both year-to-date and year-over-year through May 2006. Such consumer confidence does not seem to jive with RealtyTracs May 2006 data either, where the Sunshine State was ranked as having the second highest number of foreclosures in the country (8,898) behind Results of a new study released last week by Attorneys Title Insurance Fund (The Fund) suggests that Florida homeowners are feeling pretty good nowadays about the value of their homes and the potential for those values to rise further in the future.
