High-End Foreclosures Rising Among Top Tier Homes
High-End Foreclosures Rising Among Top Tier Homes By Octavio Nuiry, RealtyTrac Staff Writer Until now, the foreclosure crisis was confined to a narrow niche of middle-class urban communities and outer-rim new housing developments where first-time homeowners and real estate speculators benefited briefly from favorable financing. But increasingly there are signs that the foreclosure problem is spilling over into wealthier areas, where prime borrowers — and even high-end real estate developers — are rapidly falling behind on their

Foreclosure Activity Deflating or Just Deferred?
foreclosure activity in June decreased 3 percent from the previous month but was still up 53 percent from June 2007, according to the RealtyTrac U.S. Foreclosure Market Report released today. The 3 percent decrease may lead some to speculate that the upward trend in foreclosure activity may be nearing an end, but as RealtyTrac CEO James J. U.S. Saccacio pointed out in a statement, the year-over-year change is a more indicative number of the overall trend. "The

When Foreclosure Is Not Politically Correct
Typically when you read about a politician and foreclosure, it’s in relation to some piece of legislation created to combat the recent surge in foreclosures. But the topic of foreclosure recently became much more personal for one Long Beach, Calif ., Laura Richardson has lost, via foreclosure, the 1,600 square-foot, two-story Sacramento home with three bedrooms and 1.5 politician.

A Small Silver Lining in Q1 Foreclosure Storm
While foreclosure activity in the first quarter of 2008 was up on a year-over-year basis in 90 percent of the nations 100 largest metropolitan areas, according to the RealtyTrac Q1 report issued today, there were a few notable exceptions that could prove to be a harbinger of hope for the nations battered housing market. On the other hand, those exceptions could just turn out to be a source of false hope, perpetuated in part by short-term foreclosure solutions that are about as effective as a five-gallon bailing bucket on the sinking Titanic. The notable exceptions included Detroit — a longtime posterchild for the foreclosure meltdown — and Philadelphia, along with a few other Pennsylvania metro areas.

Big Ben Is Finally Talking Foreclosures
Big Ben Bernanke, that guy at the top of the nation’s financial food chain, finally admitted Tuesday in an address to a group of the nation’s community bankers that foreclosures are not going to go away anytime soon. The Fed Chief gave two reasons for the bleak forecast (both of which have been espoused in previous posts in this blog): 1) further declines in housing prices are expected; and 2) significant resets of adjustable interest rates to unaffordable levels for many borrowers who were convinced to take out the more risky loan products of the past few years. And the fact that
