Sounds like things are still going down, even in Cali. I don't know all the #'s for Flint, MI where I am but just this week I have picked up 6 foreclosures to mow from 1 local credit union and I get them just after the agent does.

Scott - The numbers are very interesting.  Any thoughts on what's driving the lower prices? It appears unvestors must be jumping back into the waters for the number of sales to have increased like that.

That large number of foreclosures and sales are pulling down the normal market in price.  That is pretty scary when you think about that many foreclosures selling and the consequences to the surrounding neighborhood.
