Still not that bad. Let’s see some localized context, courtesy a report titled “Cumulative Foreclosure Actions In Virginia (April 2008)” sent to me by a local lender (PDF) –
Albemarle County is #68 with .03%
Augusta County is #76 with .02%
Charlottesville is #78 with .02%
Fluvanna County is #98 with .01%
Greene County is #65 with .03%
Nelson County is 103 with 0%
Waynesboro City is #87 with .01%
For context, look at Spotsylvania 1.69% and 1.9% Stafford, which equals 727 and 828 housing units respectively under foreclosure. Loudoun County has over 2,000 foreclosures equalling 2.14% of their housing stock.
Some of this week’s foreclosures are in this week’s HooK.
