April 2009 Foreclosure, REO, and Short Sale update.

According to Foreclosure Radar (A service which tracks every single foreclosure daily in the state of California) in the month of April Foreclosure notices in the state of California saw a decline while foreclosure sales rose in the state of California.

Sales at the actual foreclosure auction rose by 35 percent overall. According to estimates foreclosure sales sold to third party investors at an average of a 28% discount from estimated market value.

Notices of default dropped by an estimated 18.2% from the record level set the prior month. Notices of Trustee sale (Foreclosure Auction) also dropped by 8.5% from the prior month.

Although it's too early to tell if this will be a trend its important information to consider and keep an eye on.

Some important bullet points to consider:

•· Notice of defaults still remain at close to record highs

•· Nearly 90 percent of the foreclosed loans for the month of April were originated between January of 2005 and December of 2007.

•· Lenders took back almost 12,000 foreclosures in which no third party bid was received. These properties become REO inventory (Real Estate Owned), and then are usually listed with Real Estate agents or sold at third party auctions.

•· The percentage of total properties sold at foreclosure auction still remains pretty low compared to the overall amount of homes for sale going through the auction at only 12% with 88% going back to the lender.

•· San Diego county for the month of April saw Notice of Defaults at 3,441, Notice of Trustee Sales (Auctions) at 2,381, and Sales of 993.

•· The median home prices in Carlsbad for that same period have fallen by close to 27% to a median price for San Diego County of 521,500 making Carlsbad as affordable as it's been in years.
