I am continually troubled by the presentation of the foreclosure data. Understanding the current state of the housing industry is complex to begin with. Statistics are just numbers. They can easily be taken in and out of context in a news release very quickly. Interpreting the data can be as easy or as hard as you would like to make it. Here is my interpretation of where we are based on 2 recent "expert" comments I have seen in the headlines.
How can it be both???. Very easy. Depending on which side of the data below you find more compelling, your opinion may differ. Its an election year so it may matter which "side of the aisle" the author of any article is seated. Clearly, we know which one "sells more newspapers". Personally, I believe that it is a good thing that foreclosures have gone down in the last 30 days. I believe that the recent statistics are more relevant. I believe that we are experiencing a gradual recovery that will begin to feel more normal in April of 2009.
