Do you watch Foreclosure Radar’s videos? I like to check them out because it’s interesting to see some of their points in action in the local market trenches I work in each day. Based on the data, it seems like bad news on some levels for California in that Notice of Defaults increased and there were more pre-foreclosures last month too. But at the same time the number of properties that actually went back to the bank during June 2010 went down.
Are we out of the foreclosure woods? What do you think? What are you seeing in the market in the course of business or even in your own neighborhood?
Foreclosure Radar gives the following points (from YouTube): “Foreclosure filings were up in June after two months of decline. Foreclosure cancellations reached a record high of 21,962 in June, up 27.09% from May. The number of properties purchased by 3rd parties dropped by 23.73% since last month, but those properties bought were at the best margins in months. Fewer properties went back to the bank, down 23.73% from the prior month. Time-to-Foreclosure was flat month over month, but up 34.93% from June 2009. Time-to-Resell continued it’s slow ascent, up 5.95% for the banks and up 4.29% for 3rd parties.”

Steve loves the iPhone app for watching Foreclosure Radar. An invaluable tool for his work …

That is really cool. You should make a video of Steve explaining the local market and foreclosure activity – all from his iPhone. I wonder if they have an app for my Android. I’ll have to check into that.
Heather O says
HA! That’s a genius idea … his other videos did well, so why not do one on his iphone …
Ryan Lundquist says
Seriously, I’d love to see the video. I posted his previous video on my blog too. Thanks for the “RT” on Facebook, by the way.
