Bank Owned Homes in Silverlakes

There may be fewer bank owned homes in Silverlakes. According to the figures just released foreclosure proceedings in September were at their lowest level since 2007 at 653. There was some assistance in lowering that number when the largest lenders pulled back to re-examine documents. Insiders put that impact at 10% to 15% of the decrease. What does this mean for the future? While one month is significant it is not the only low number. In fact the number of foreclosures have been in decline for some time. Not so ironically, prices have been steadily increasing for some time. There has been a slight seasonal adjustment in the last two months but demand has remained strong and as we go into season I expect it to firm all the more.

Indecision has been a hallmark of those shopping the real estate market the last two years. People recognize the values and want to buy but are indecisive because there has not been a precipitous movement in price in some time.

Easier than that though is the enjoyment you can have just watching the birds and other wildlife that either make the lake their home or their temporary landing place. Florida has such a variety of birds, turtles, and other wildlife that I don't think I will ever feel confident that I have a strong grasp on it. I have purchased books on just the birds and the variety is staggering. If all of that is too much just watching the sun glimmering off of the ripples in the water is enough for me.
