Last year, I wrote to you concerning the slew of foreclosures and short sales that were coming our way. I can’t speak about all of California but I watch what’s occurring in our local market. No doubt, you’ve seen the headlines that included the words, “Sub Prime Loans”. Much ado is being made about the irresponsibility of underwriting those loans and the lenders that peddled them to unsuspecting borrowers. Unfortunately, Sacramento has been listed as the #1 area for Sub Prime loan origination. In 1995, the greater Sacramento area gained “honors” as the #2 “Short Sale” market in California. It appears likely that we’ll return to that lofty level again.
