(highlighting was mine) Those paragraphs are excerpted directly from the article, with one snip excluded. Clearly the AP 'writer', as usual, hyped the negative, exhibiting AP's flair for BDS. We all accept the last several months were a 'surge' in foreclosures. The headline I would have written would have noted the obvious decrease in filings! The surge is yesterday's news, the decrease is today's news. /beating dead horse.

The surge is working..........

Life in Democrat Paradise.

A year over year comparison is a better measure over a month to month.

For example, retail sales nosedive in January, compared to the month before, is that a sign of a failing economy? Of course not.

That’s why retail stores compare their sales from the previous year and not the previous month.

Does anyone have a breakdown as to how many are family primary homes, second home, speculative homes, contractors unsold homes, investment properties, etc.? Although there is increased foreclosure activity in this region, my observation is that many are not family primary homes.
