Foreclosures are an ugly reality

My listing on Burritt sold in multiple offers and is in escrow. There is a shortage of well priced homes under the $1,000,000 price range in Los Angeles. Because of this, I remain fixated on the lack of foreclosures….    Where are they? When will they be hitting the market?  How many will there be? How long can a homeowner stay in their home without making payments

“The 1990-91 recession also had significant real estate problems and the non-performing loan percentage peaked north of 3% back then.  We’re at 2.6% or so now…..” Read the remainder here:

Foreclosures are an ugly reality. I believe that in order for the real estate market to recover, we must experience this “natural cycle” and I think the foreclosure moratoriums are delaying our recovery.

    I have been amazed at how long families can remain in a home without it going to foreclosure. A similar problem exists with unlawful detainers. It seems the laws are currently on the side of the debtor rather than the one losing the money. A change in the systmen would be beneficial to our long term economic growth.
