Longmeadow Foreclosures Are Increasing- Part II

My recent post on this subject- "Longmeadow Foreclosures are Increasing" had the right title but the posted data was not accurate.

A second visit to the Hampden County Register of Deeds website found a summary of foreclosures by town for the FY2008 (ending 6/30/08) . Below is the data for Longmeadow as compared to East Longmeadow and Wilbraham.

Here is a link to the July 2008 summary written by Donald E. Ashe, Hampden County Register of Deeds

The reported increase in the number of foreclosures in Longmeadow is still a very low percentage of the total number of homes (8 out of 5500 = 0.15%) and should not be a concern to Longmeadow homeowners worried about their property values.
