California lists of repossession properties are among the most sought after lists, based on a report recently released by a top foreclosure research organization.
The report said that California foreclosures made up almost 51 percent of all house sales from January to March this year, the second highest rate among states. The share of sales of distressed properties and bank owned homes for sale in the first three months was slightly higher than that in the preceding quarter, but marked a staggering plunge from 70 percent in the January-March quarter last year.
The number of residential units that got sold in the first quarter from California distressed homes and foreclosed home listings to buyers other than repossessing lenders was 59,823. This number represented 50.8 percent of the 232,959 total of foreclosure sales during the quarter and a decrease of more than 21 percent from the total in the prior quarter. It was also lower by nearly 47 percent from the total one year earlier.
