Dothan Foreclosure numbers going up?

As promised, here is the last eight weeks data on foreclosure notices published in the local newspaper.

I have only been tracking this information since November, even though before that I looked at the notices at least several times each week. I can say with a lot of certainty that I have never seen 12 notices in one day as we saw last Thursday. I can also say with relative confidence that the foreclosure numbers from this chart are not abnormally high for the Dothan area.

We’ll see how it plays out. As I stated in my predictions for the real estate market here in Dothan for 2008, I don’t think we can avoid an increase in foreclosures this year.
