Nationwide foreclosure level normalized

Levels of foreclosure activity in the U.S. have decreased to a pre-recession level, a mydaytondailynews.com article stated on October 13.

Overall foreclosure data provided by RealtyTrac noted in September that foreclosure filings nationwide have reduced by 24 percent compared to the data recorded in the same month last year. Recent data also revealed that foreclosure levels have reduced by 13 percent compared to a month earlier. RealtyTrac also reported that the recent foreclosure rates are similar to levels recorded before the housing market collapsed in 2007. Real estate expert Daren Blomquist noted that this year’s recent record shows overall foreclosure levels continuously improve year by year.

Though recent data is projecting that the housing market is actively recovering from the horrors of the crisis, there are still many homeowners who are at risk of losing their home to foreclosure.
