The 1 percent dip in national foreclosure homes rate this April left a huge sigh of relief from real estate experts worried about the after effects of the could-have-been-better foreclosure market conditions. Other states like Nevada even enjoyed a 21. 13 percent decrease in foreclosure activity compared to last month. Although the state recorded just 3,737 homes entering some stage of foreclosure, Nevada still has the top spot in terms of foreclosures rate.
Despite the state’s decreased foreclosure activity this April, Nevada foreclosures rate has actually tripled when compared to the same month last year. Still, many are hoping that the most recent report is a sign that the state is finally recovering from the terrible onslaught of foreclosures brought about by the depressed real estate market, numerous defaulting subprime mortgages and overbuilding.
Clark County showed the highest level of house foreclosure activity, with 1 out of every 179 homes in some stage of foreclosure. On the other hand, the counties of Churchill and Pershing showed the lowest level of foreclosure activity, both with just 1 foreclosure home recorded. Overall, the state’s foreclosure filings represented approximately 4 percent of the total national filing.
As always, the current real estate market condition in Nevada favors buyers and investors. As more and more homes enter some stage of foreclosures, the growing inventory offers a wider selection of homes as well as lower prices. Buyers and investors are on the lookout for potential bargains that can be turned into goldmines, either rental properties or even as fixer-uppers.
Reputable real estate brokers like ForeclosureConnections can provide buyers access to foreclosure listings, making their bargain-hunting more convenient. Many sellers have actually opted to use the listings services hoping to attract more potential buyers and somehow reduce holding costs.
