Foreclosures are on the rise across the country, and Idaho is not immune to this trend.  The Idaho Business Review recently reported " Idaho ranked 10th in home foreclosure rate in November, with one of every 479 households in some stage of foreclosure,"

This means more and more homes in Idaho will be sold in some type of distress; either as a pre-foreclosure or short sale, at a Trustee's sale, or as a REO or Bank owned property.   

As a result, I am writing a series of articles, aimed at explaining the Foreclosure process in Idaho.
