Calm before the storm??
Though US foreclosures are down for the 3rd straight month, warning signs still loom. According to foreclosure data provider RealtyTrac, filings are up about 19 percent compared to October 2008. Not a good sign.
James J. Saccacio, CEO for RealtyTrac, said that "high-risk mortgages, negative equity and unemployment" are among the contributors to higher foreclosure activity on a year-over-year basis in most states.
Is the slow down of foreclosures a good sign? Or just the calm before the storm?
