-“He estimates between 750,000 and 1 million bank-owned properties will hit the market this year, or about a quarter of the homes up for sale. In some areas, these properties will continue to slow sales and depress prices further.”
California is one of those areas. Texas is not (in a way), so to devide it out nationally agianst the entire USA population isnt really instructive to what will happen here. Location location location.
