Finance companies say they’ve lost billions in sub prime @200K average per home why aren’t there more on sale

At least $50billion has been written down by various finance institutions, apparently as a result of problems with sub-prime mortgages. Assuming the average home price to be $200k, there should be about 250,000 homes in default and therefor in foreclosure. I do not see that in the market. Are the finance companies using the sub-prime market as a cover up for other financial miscrepancies?

      It depends on your market.

      I was in Vegas last fall, lots of foreclosures on their market. I understand Florida has been hit hard also.

      And the speed of these houses hitting the market is regulated by local laws. I have seen foreclosures sit for months before the lender finally offers them for sale.

      With so much regulation and scrutiny, I cannot imagine there is some cover-up going on.
