Arizona time to foreclose less than half the

national average of 526 days


• Arizona and Phoenix leading the way out of foreclosure crisis– State foreclosure rate ranked No. 10 in June– Metro foreclosure rate ranked No. 57 out of 209

metro areas nationwide– Shorter foreclosure process with no legislative

intervention means no backlog built up threatening another wave of delayed foreclosures

– Rapidly rising home prices will help lift underwater homeowners to positive equity more quickly than other markets

auctions up 34 percent from

year ago in June


• Why are foreclosure starts and auctions rebounding?– Pent-up foreclosure activity from robo-signing, national

mortgage settlement and state legislation/court rulings– Rising prices may be helping to motivate foreclosure

• What are implications for real estate investors?– Clock is now ticking on delinquent homeowners– Auctions may be good place to buy in next 6 to 12

months

THE PROBLEM & OPPORTUNITY OF ZOMBIE FORECLOSURES


THE PROBLEM AND OPPORTUNITY OF ZOMBIE FORECLOSURES



• The problem– More than 167,000 vacant homes nationwide, 20

percent of all homes in the foreclosure process– Homeowners often don’t realize they still own the

property and are responsible for taxes etc.

• The opportunity– Homeowners who have exhibited a desire to let go of

the property– Lenders who don’t want to foreclose


LEVERAGING DISTRESSED TRENDS TIP NO. 5


Identify homeowners who have vacated their homes and get

new mailing addresses
