Foreclosure Rates Fall Again

U.S. foreclosure rates fell for the third straight month according to RealtyTrac's new report.  New foreclosure fillings in June dropped 2.81 percent from the previous month and 6.98 percent from the previous year.

While foreclosure rates are falling, they are still at high levels with 16 straight months of readings of over 300,000.  Still 410 out of every 411 homes are not in foreclosure, so there is still some strength in the housing market.
