Default notices fell 2.0 percent in October and were 19 percent below year-before levels, according to RealtyTrac’s U.S. Foreclosure Market Report.

Saccacio, chief executive officer at RealtyTrac, said the declines were probably due to the foreclosure freeze, which may lead to further decreases in November. More here and here.
