NOTE: 18% is almost 1 in 5 properties (read: real live people who are your neighbors, friends, family, co-workers ...)
NOTE: 23% is almost 1 in 4 properties
NOTE: "Fewer Homeowners Underwater"? Make sure you read the complete update. Fewer is not fewer in Utah, fewer is fewer compared to the national average. Remember, all politics, and real estate, is local.
NOTE: Like I keep telling my clients, "better" is a relative term. Now I can add "fewer" to the same list.
NOTE: "Utah's foreclosure rate will not rise as dramatically in the coming year". TRANSLATION: Utah's foreclosure rate IS going to rise in the coming year, just not as dramatically as ??? ... compared to last year? compared to Nevada's 65% underwaterness?
This type of "press release" is a terribly misleading disservice to us as dues paying members of the SLBR, our clients and the public at large.
