Foreclosure filings – default notices, scheduled foreclosure auctions, and bank repossessions – hit 2.8 million properties in 2009, a 21% rise from 2008 and an astounding 120% increase from 2007. And the estimated 1,000,000+ backlog of delinquent loans looming over the market ensures that the housing crisis is far from over.

“The foreclosure crisis isn’t letting up. Between 3 and 3.5 million homes are expected to enter some phase of foreclosure this year.” Rick Sharga of RealtyTrac, quoted in the New York Times on January 14, 2010.
