The number of foreclosure postings dropped dramatically in September, but not because there are fewer homeowners in distress. Instead, the numbers are down because of a new law requiring lenders to contact homeowners and then wait 30 days before filing foreclosure notices. The goal is to encourage loan modifications that enable homeowners to stay in their home.

There were 4,775 homes for sale in the 10 cities in my service area on Sunday, Oct. 5, according to the local Multiple Listing Service. While that's a daunting number to home buyers and home sellers alike - for different reasons - it is less than 2 percent of the number of existing houses in Chino, Claremont, Fontana, La Verne, Montclair, Ontario, Pomona, Rancho Cucamonga, San Dimas and Upland. Since the source of the number of houses was the 2000 census, and most communities saw a boom in construction during the first half of the decade, the actual percentage is even lower. Fontana has seen home prices plummet since the giddy "Build, Build, Build" years shortly after 2000, when northern Fontana homes and home prices shot skyward.
