When a homeowner can no longer make payments on the house, the lender or bank will attempt to seize the property. This process, known as foreclosure, is becoming more and more common, even for those with good credit. In 2009, a record 2.8 million U.S. properties received foreclosure notices, up 21 percent from 2008 and up 120 percent from 2007, according to the RealtyTrac 2009 Year-End U.S. Foreclosure Market Report, released January 15, 2010 by RealtyTrac®, the leading online marketplace for foreclosure properties. For 10 straight months in 2009, the monthly number of foreclosure notices surpassed 300,000. During 2009, one in every 45 U.S. housing units received at least one foreclosure filing.
