CA Foreclosures up 300%

From the Central Valley Business Times:

California foreclosure filings were up a dramatic 300 percent in August, compared to the same time last year, according to Default Research Inc., a Mt. Pleasant, Pa., foreclosure information company

Kern County reported 911 foreclosure notices last month, compared to 238 a year earlier.

Many of these foreclosures could be avoided if it weren't for the greedy realwhores.

There was a property that went into foreclosure last week. I called on it too late. The owner was in default on a $56,000 first trust deed. Anyone want to guess what the list price was? $165,000. Based on my own MLS search, not a single, comparable home within a one mile radius had sold anywhere near $165,000.

The home was previously listed for as high as $200,000.

Now I understand that a listing agent wants to start high and reduce to market.

But given the imminent threat of foreclosure, why wouldn't they just sell it at breakeven.

It's retarded. Each day I become more and more baffled by the stupidity of the people participating in this market.

Am I the only one who finds the 911 figure for foreclosures ironic?
