Bank foreclosure is one of the biggest nightmares for any homeowner and Miami seems be reeling under a long spell of foreclosure nightmare. Foreclosures in the state of Florida started to rise since 2005 and since then it has been taking huge leaps every year and here are some comparison statistics for Miami:
