Even though bank owned listings (aka Foreclosures, REO) are seeing an upward tick in absorption, it is still a seller's market! Inventory has risen dramatically (+513 units), Pendings have risen +82 units Closing data is up up UP at -424 units. Inventory is rising at an uncontrolled pace which is causing the absorption rate to rise also. What I know on the back end with all the contracts being written, this may change VERY soon here. Low interest rates have spurred a flurry of buyer activity this December. Since the numbers were pulled, we are almost another 200 pendings higher! Foreclosures are showing NO signs of stopping!
REO sales accounted for 76.6% of all resales in November 2008. REO listings account for only 35.9% of total resale listings.
Multiple offers are streaming in as banks continue to lower to fire and auction sale prices.

Sorry for the way silly headliner. This market is crazy with buyer activity and instead of appreciation we are still seeing slight depreciation. WHEN WILL THIS STOP?!?!?!
