Knoxville Foreclosure Watch: September 1, 2010
Welcome to the home stretch of the 3rd Quarter, Watchers! This week on Knoxville Foreclosure Watch, active foreclosure listings were down, while pending and closed listings were both up. And I’m doing my happy dance, because that means the numbers all moved in the right directions this week. Yes, it’s only one week, but after last week, I’ll take what I can get.
New listings were pretty spread out this week, with no clear front runner, but 37849, 37917, 37932 and 37934 all had 2 each. 37918 has the most so far this year with a total of 82 new foreclosure listings.

There was a 3 way tie for most closed listings last week: 37912, 37921 and 37931 all had 3 each. 37918 was next in line with 2 closed foreclosure listings and 37920, 37922, 37924, and 37938 all had 1 each.
