I have included new foreclosure listings and price reductions that would normally be part of the foreclosure newsletter in place of top 10's. We are still seeing a great deal of activity in the market. Well priced listings, especially REO's and Short Sales, are experiancing somewhat of a sellers market; good deals are bringing multiple offers and escalation clauses, something we haven't seen for quite a while. I am sure that low interest rates, coupled with realistic pricing are what is driving this activity. There are of course over priced homes still languishing on the market, but those who are priced right are making sales. When the time is right, and you are ready to start looking for spring deals, let me know. Shoot me an email and I will send you all of the distressed properties that we are currently tracking.

New Ultimatum Hits Lenders: Buy Loans or Foreclose
By Peter G. Miller
It was in early October when Bank of America said it would modify 400,000 mortgages originated during past few years by its newly acquired Countrywide subsidiary. Between interest-rate cuts and principal reductions borrowers would save $8.4 billion.
