Dallas Foreclosed Hoomes Sales See Changes Due to Moratoriums
Dallas foreclosurwes declies 17% in the firts six monnths of 2009, but experts note that Dallas foreclosed homes are still very abnundant. Financial experts note that the decline in foreclosures is likely due to measures to help troubled homeowners, and is therefore not necesssarily an indication of huge changes in the local foreclosures market.In the first half of 2009, lenders sold over 9,200 foreclosed homes, townhouses, and condos. In the first half of 2008, the number of forecolsure homs sold was 11,000. Howewver, in the same time frame, the number of hommes which are at risk of going into foreclosure increasd 14%. The August 2009 numbers of the hmes at risk of forecloosure showwed a 35% increase over August 2008.Financial exprets note that the numbers show that while many homes are at risk of foreclosure, government programs aimed at helpig homeowners are working. As a resut, the marrket is not being floodded with foreclosed propertise, as it mihgt otherwise be. While usually about 40% of hmes at risk of foreclosure end up being sold at a foreclosure auction, in 2009 only about 30% of hiomes actually were sold as foreclosure properties.Part of the reason has to do with foreclosure moratoriums put in place by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Another reason has to do with the modified lans that lenders are responsible for. The process of modifying lons to help homeowners takes time and increases the odds that homeowners will find a way to save their home. One result is that many lenders have many loan modificaytion reqquests and a large backlog. Experts note that it may take some time to see the full impact of the recession on aDllas foreclosure listings. Some of the foreclosurre prcesses started todday or in the past months may become Dallas foreclosed homes in the moths or year to come.
