 Some great information from our friends at Keeping Current Matters. According to the [_Year-End 2022 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report_](https://www.attomdata.com/news/market-trends/foreclosures/attom-year-end-2022-u-s-foreclosure-market-report/) from _ATTOM_, **foreclosure filings are up 115% from 2021, but down 34% from 2019.** As media headlines grab onto this 115% increase, it’s more important than ever to put that percentage into context. Here’s why: - There was a foreclosure moratorium during the pandemic
- There aren’t as many homeowners at-risk due to stricter lending standards in the last 15 years
- Most homeowners have more than enough equity to sell their homes, rather than foreclose _“The bottom line is there will be an increase in foreclosures over the next year (from record low levels), but there will not be a huge wave of distressed sales as happened following the housing bubble._ **_The distressed sales during the housing bust led to cascading price declines, and that will not happen this time.”_** Whether you are facing foreclosure or just looking to make a move, contact Chris Simpson and lets discuss your situation and see how I can help you move.
