A possible improving economy is welcome news from Default Research, the provider of the most current and accurate database of foreclosed properties in Southern California. Still, median home sales in Riverside and San Bernardino are $377,000 which is well below the average of $467,000 in the state of California.
“While conditions are improving in Southern California, there are still a substantial number of three-year Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs) that will adjust in 2008,” said Bankaci, who lists foreclosure sales two to three weeks ahead of the competition. “www.defaultresearch.com [Southern California foreclosures will continue to rise as more ARMs reset and people are unable to make their payments. Our statistics show that the foreclosure activity should max out by the third or fourth quarter of 2008.”
