According to a recent survey from Foreclosure Radar, a leading web-based research firm that monitors foreclosures in California, the number of foreclosures in California decreased in December '09 as compared to December '08.

When comparing SLO County to other counties with in the state, however, the number of foreclosures actually went up when comparing December '08 with '09.

However, when comparing the volume of foreclosures in San Luis Obispo County with other counties within the state, SLO County barely registers. This, in large part, can be credited to the county's geographic location, but most importantly, to its ridged control over growth.

If an educated conclusion can be drawn from this industry survey, volume should be used as the most import factor as it applies to evaluating the overall health of one particular real estate market. It's also reassuring to know that cities like Los Osos, and SLO County in general, seem to be weathering the foreclosure storm a lot better than many other areas within the state.

If you are looking at a "short sale" home to purchase in Los Osos, but the seller (or borrower) has a 1^st trust deed and a 2^nd, the likelihood of both lenders working out a solution is slim to none-particularly if a home's value has continued to diminish during the short sale process (typically 6 months or longer).

So you know, a successful short sale on a home with both a 1^st and 2^nd trust deed is entirely contingent on the 2^nd trust deed recouping a minimum of 10 percent on the current loan's balance. Furthermore, the actual close-of-escrow-ratio of homes being sold through a short sale process is less than one percent.

Don't confuse REOs or Foreclosures with Short Sales. For more information on the pitfalls of Short Sales,
