BOCA RATON, FL – According to data released today by Foreclosure.com, a total of 93,440 foreclosed residential properties were available for sale in the U.S. during August. This represents a 3 percent increase from the 90,611 foreclosed properties available for sale during July. The total number of new foreclosures in August was 24,328, which was a decline from July.
“Foreclosure inventory has been steadily increasing since May, representing a slowdown in the purchase of foreclosed homes,” said Brad Geisen, president and CEO, Foreclosure.com. “This trend of sustained high inventory presents a strong investment opportunity for buyers, as lenders are challenged with greater holding and disposition costs the longer that they have to hold on to a property.”
