• The Legend of Foreclosure Vandalism Grows
  
  The article claims that "real estate agents estimate that about half of foreclosed properties to be sold by mortgage companies nationwide have substantial damage, according to a new survey by Campbell Communications, a marketing and research firm based in Washington, D.C." But even if it isnt true, the lesson taught by these types of urban legends is still very important for foreclosure buyers and investors: when you buy a foreclosure property without being able to conduct a full inspection first, make the assumption that the property is substantially vandalized and calculate rehab

• Where to find the best deals on foreclosures
  
  Our analysis of nationwide foreclosure property sales in the last seven months shows that while some areas of the country documented a plethora of properties in foreclosure and big savings on foreclosure purchases, other areas reported relatively low foreclosure inventories and smaller average savings on foreclosure purchases. In addition, the low average sales price of foreclosures in these states makes it easier to purchase a foreclosure property — especially at foreclosure auctions, where the full amount in cash is sometimes required. It’s important for buyers and investors who are interested in the foreclosures market to carefully evaluate local market conditions before diving into foreclosures in any given area.

• Almost Like Reliving the Nineties
  
  And we continue to believe that it will take a true recovery of the housing sector before the nation pulls out of the black hole it’s falling into thanks to seven years of poor financial planning in Washington and the too little too late kneejerk response of the Federal Reserve. It doesn’t matter whether you are talking about total foreclosure filings (defaults, auctions and REOs together) or the total number of unique properties being foreclosed on every month. Well, in case you either weren’t in the business at that time, or were hoping to erase the nightmare permanently, welcome to the early 1990s redeaux…almost!
