Los Angeles, California
The numbers don’t lie, and if you think that California real estate is better check out the information below, and you determine for your self.
Every one knows of the hardest hit states in the country through the foreclosure crisis has been California.
California Pre Foreclosures have been consistently high in Los Angeles County, which has 3.08 percent of its households in foreclosure; Orange County has 3.42 percent of families in foreclosure, followed by San Diego at 4.26, San Bernardino with 7.31, and Riverside is still first with 9.27 percent of families in foreclosure.
With Los Angeles Pre Foreclosure down, the outlook for the region is positive you would suspect, as the area has seen foreclosure rates decline on average 25 percent from the November 2008 to November 2009;however we have not seen the eye of the storm as of yet.
The cities with the highest numbers of Notice of Default and Notice of Trustee Sales are Los Angeles (1120), San Diego (1067), Riverside (717), and Corona (505).
Jeff Coga, a short sale investor in Southern California pulled local data, and it clearly showed over 20,000 notice of defaults, and over 31,000 trust deed sales set between January- March. This is a frightening number as it could even be higher as the holiday Moratorium is now officially over today 1/04/2010.
Bernie Germani, another short sale investor in Southern California said ” that 2010 will be no different than 2009 as far as the real estate market in California. We are still declining, and I don’t care what the media tells you, We Aren’t On A Recovery Road Yet. The option arms that are going to adjust this year, and next year we will see many many new foreclosures, and these are good credit borrowers. Don’t let the media trick you into believing we have the bottom of the market.”
