• Local Market Perspective: Cape Coral, Fla.
  
  The opportunity to own a home at affordable prices has never been greater, but getting to the closing table is so much more difficult. Many of the best deals in our area are bank-owned properties. In our city, the bank has taken the property back but they may not have paid all the liens from our code enforcement and generally speaking that does not come up until the final title search is done, so a delay is normal. Editor's Note: This is the first in a series of guest blog posts from members of the RealtyTrac Agent Network . The agents will be sharing their insights

• Solving the MERS Mystery
  
  That’s because when they see MERS — or its expanded manifestation, Mortgage Electronic Registration System — listed as the lender for a property, it often means extra work finding contact information for the actual lender who is foreclosing. Foreclosure documents often list MERS as the lender even though it is not able to answer any questions about the property, let alone entertain offers from interested buyers or investors.

  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 list; up 294 percent in Phoenix; and up 249 percent in Orlando. 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.

• Short sales rising
  
  Scanning the Southern California Multiple Listing Service (MLS) last week, the one thing that stands out is the growing number of short sales.
