The Weekly Poll: Have there been foreclosures in your neighborhood?

The weekly poll is up and ready for your voting pleasure. And no, it’s not in danger of being foreclosed on.

This week’s poll question has to do with something I get asked about a lot: foreclosures. You hear about them a lot on the news and folks are definitely worried about them everywhere you turn. And Knoxille certainly hasn’t escaped unscathed from the nation’s foreclosure crisis: Knoxville foreclosure filings were up over 95% in 2008 from 2007. Youch.

So, I’m curious - how many of your neighborhoods have been affected by this recent wave of foreclosures? Are there any current or recently foreclosed properties in your neighborhood or has your community managed to remain foreclosure free for the time being? Cast your vote and let me know.

I may not be able to keep you from worrying about foreclosures in your neighborhood, but I can make sure you never have to worry about where to get the latest news on the Knoxille real estate market. Subscribe to All Around KTown by RSS or email today!
