The city's high rate of foreclosures -- seven times higher than the national average -- was No. 2 in RealtyTrac's 2008 report, behind Stockton, Calif., with nearly 40 percent of the foreclosure activity in the $100,000 to $300,000 price range, according to John Burns Real Estate Consulting. Annual resale volume is up by 36 percent year-over-year, the consulting firm reports. New home sales activity is expected to continue to decline through 2010.
