Honolulu Foreclosures Up

The Honolulu StarAdvertser is reporting a significant increase in the number of foreclosures in Honolulu.  Generally, Honolulu includes all of the island of Oahu and since the reporting company, RealtyTrac, doesn’t delineate between the different communities it is difficult to tell whether the increase is in outlying areas or the urban core.

“Home foreclosures in Honolulu shot up more than 70 percent during the first half of this year even as foreclosure rates began abating in the hardest-hit cities on the mainland, according to report released today.

A total of 2,784 Honolulu homeowners received a foreclosure filing between January and the end of June, up 72.3 percent from the first half of 2009, according to the report from real estate research firm RealtyTrac.”
