If the foreclosure market has anything to say about how long this down market will last, don’t expect things to get better anytime soon.
Foreclosure filings in Big Bear were up 20% in May 2009 compared to April 2009. And year over year, foreclosure filings were up 53% as compared to May 2008. Foreclosure filings, which are made up on Notices of Default (NOD), Notices of Trustee Sale (NTS), and Trustee Sales, are a good indicator of the future health of any real estate market. Accordingly, the real estate market in Big Bear stands to lose a few pounds.
Here’s the breakdown for each -
Notices of Default – at 94, they were up just 2% from April 2009, but up 50% from May 2008. The all-time high was set in March of this year, with 107 total.
Keep in mind the NOD starts the foreclosure process. Generally speaking, the vast majority of these properties will be hitting the market in 6-12 months.
Notices of Trustee Sale (NTS), which sets an auction date & time, shot up sharply in May. In fact, the 76 NTS filed is the largest we have ever seen in Big Bear. That number is up 58% from the April 2009 number, and 73% from May 2008.
The number of properties that went back to the bank in May was also the highest we have seen in Big Bear history. Granted, it was only 1 higher than the previous high, it is still important.
This was a 16% increase from April’s number of 38.
Year over year, the number of properties that went back to the bank in May was up 33% from that same month last year.
