There is a growth of distressed properties that is appearing like a post tsunami tidal wave, and it is heading straight for the Tallahassee real estate market. The warning bells are sounding as we continue to monitor lis pendens filings and foreclosures in Tallahassee.
If you have been following our tracking of foreclosures in Tallahassee, then you won’t be surprised that we have seen another large month of filings during the month of September. The Tallahassee Foreclosure Page on our web site is getting more and more traffic every day, so I suspect that this “wave” will not catch too many people off guard.
Lis Pendens Filings Continue To Rise
Tallahassee endured another 180 lis pendens filings during the month of September, a year over year increase of 59%. But that pales in comparison to the year over year increase of foreclosures. 49 foreclosures occurred during the month of September, and when compared to the 6 that we saw in September of last year, that represents a year over year rise of 717%!
Most Distressed Neighborhoods In Tallahassee
Lis pendens have been filed for properties in a total of 703 Tallahassee Subdivisions over the past 12 months. This seems to be a pretty fair distribution of distressed properties, yet some have been hit harder than the rest.
