FAR 267 Information Overload Opening:

It\u2019s time today to catch up on the news and some of your questions. Breaking news isn\u2019t exactly an every day experience in real estate, but that can be a good thing. I\u2019ve got some updates today on foreclosure rates around the country, a pretty good article on why we aren\u2019t seeing many foreclosures, where to expect a bump in foreclosures over the next six months, plus answers to many of your questions all coming up.\xa0
