The last week of February was a busy one for Richmond’s foreclosure market, as each of the surrounding counties saw an increase in foreclosed properties, except for Hanover. In Richmond City the number of properties with a set public auction date doubled from the week before from 11 to 22. As in most weeks, most of the properties are at the lower end of the market. But there are several properties valued at more than $400,000.

Foreclosures rose dramatically in the past week, and were once again focused on the city of Richmond more so than the outlying counties. REO properties, however, were down to a mere 11, but the number of public auctions, and properties awaiting public auction dates increased severely.

BizSense has added another weekly data section. Starting today, we will run a list of new properties that are in the process of foreclosure. Over time we hope to add more information to the list, such as the size of the loan and a possible sale price.
Please email us what sort of information would be even more helpful, as we hope to improve this regular feature in coming weeks and months.
