Thank you Alan.
Down from Jan, but Feb was a short month. Now that the Obama administration has put forth a foreclosure rescue plan, it will be interesting to see if NTS filings for March, April, and May continue to rise. I predict....that they will continue to rise.

I missed your post, Tim. I've been busy and haven't been following the forums as closely.

I hereby resign my role of posting monthly foreclosure posts and turn it over to The Tim.

March is only a week old and there's already been 300+ notices of trustee sale filed this month.
