• Foreclosure Filings Soar 90 Percent
  
  Saccacio, chief executive officer of RealtyTrac, said a jump in foreclosures at a time of year that traditionally is the busiest for home sales means the slide in prices probably isn't over. “Such strong activity in the midst of the typical spring buying season could foreshadow even higher foreclosure levels later in the year,” said Saccacio. “Certainly Certainly not every community nationwide is seeing an increase in foreclosures, but foreclosed properties are becoming more commonplace and adding to the downward pressure on home prices in many areas.” A growing number of American homeowners across the country are getting foreclosure notices, according to new data released this week by RealtyTrac.

  The five: California, Florida (the hanging chad capital of the western world), Michigan, Ohio and Georgia. Just an FYI: in the upcoming 2008 presidential election, California will have 55 electoral votes, Florida 27, Michigan 17, Ohio 20 and Georgia 15. Investors, real estate professionals and potential home buyers looking to pick up a property at bargain prices should stay keenly focused on this election. No butter for me. Personally, I like my hot baked potato covered with sour cream and chives.

  The correlation is apparent in the report’s list of the top states for mortgage fraud: California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Utah.
