-Foreclosure pace slowing down
One month does not determine a trend. Wait until you see the December numbers. NODs are going to be at an all time monthly high. Foreclosures are going to be near the total for all of 2006, yes, that is one month will be at or close to all of one year. Notice of trustee sales have really ramped up the last few months, and the amount of homes at the trustee auctions proves this.
And, you can’t say that it is the less desirable areas either. Homes in Newport, CDM, Dana Point, HB, Ladera, Laguna Hills, Irvine, etc. and high end homes in Tustin and Orange have been going back to the bank.
Keep your hopes up, but reality is it is going to get worse the next few months, and it doesn’t appear to be slowing.
Sorry shockg, but you have tried to fight the ever increasing foreclosures since the beginning of the year, and you have been wrong the whole time. You were the one who asked if the bears would come back in 2008, and admit they were wrong, so are you going to admit you have been wrong about the foreclosures?
