Are Salt Lake Homes For Sale Mostly Short Sales/Foreclosures ?

Almost every day I hear the question, are Salt Lake Homes For Sale mostly Short sales or Foreclosures?

The answer is NO!!

But. There is a wide difference between the percentage of distressed mortgages, or homes, or home owners, however you want to characterize them between the various areas and neighborhoods that make up the Salt Lake Real Estate market.

This percentage of Homes and Condominiums that are listed For Sale as either Foreclosure, or Pre-Foreclosure in Salt Lake City is growing, and according to some national companies that track this sort of thing could reach a point where 50% of all homes for sale will be under duress.
