MBA Survey Confirms Q1 Foreclosure Surge
The first quarter MBA National Delinquency Survey released today largely supports the findings of the RealtyTrac Q1 2008 U.S. It’s too early to say that the lower foreclosure numbers in states such as Ohio and Michigan represent a light at the end tunnel for the battered real estate industry, but it’s certain that the continued surge in foreclosures in populous states such as Florida and California will cast a shadow over the entire U.S. Foreclosure Market Report released at the end of April, which found overall foreclosure activity increased 23 percent from the fourth quarter of 2007 and 112 percent from the first quarter of 2007.

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
