Seeing all the foreclosure headlines lately? Don’t let them take you straight back to 2008. 👀
The numbers tell a very different story.
More than 1.3 million homes had foreclosure filings in the first half of 2008. This year, that number was less than 250,000.
Yes, foreclosures have increased. But we’re still a long way from the levels we saw during the housing crash.
Headlines can create fear. Data gives you perspective.
