ribit,
did you read the numbers?
an example, up 500%, but doesn't "mean much" since it only effects 43 homes.
1. Montana
Number of REOs: 48
Increase from March 2015: 71.43%
Increase from April 2014: 500%
Despite its massive land area, Montana doesn’t have a huge population.
There are only 64 homes in the state with a foreclosure filing, so the 500% increase in REOs doesn’t mean much.
Montana has the fifth-lowest foreclosure rate: one in every 7,552 homes.
