- Tax credits spur some home buyers
- 'Feeding frenzy' creates strong sales for starter homes
Some of the decline was likely caused by a new state law aimed at slowing the foreclosure process. Already, there are signs that foreclosure activity is rising again, although it is unclear whether lenders are catching up on defaults delayed by the law or if there is a new wave of foreclosures on the horizon.
