We announced in this blog in July 2013 (Massachusetts Foreclosure Crisis Over, Foreclosure Petitions Down 86%) and again in April 2014 (Safe to Say the Massachusetts Foreclosure Crisis is Over?) that the foreclosure crisis in Massachusets was over, dead, done with, kaput, and the crisis is definitely history; however, something surprising, if not completely unexpected, has happened in recent months.
Foreclosure petitions – the first step in the Massachusetts foreclosure process – have risen on a month-over-month basis for a couple months. By no means are we back in foreclosure crisis mode, not even close, but as lenders get the last of the foreclosures off their books there may be an opportunities for some home buyers and investors.

For home buyers who missed the chance to purchase a foreclosure a few years ago when Massachusetts foreclosures and short sales were plentiful, a very small window of opportunity may be opening, according to data released June 5, 2014 by The Warren Group, publisher of Banker & Tradesman.
The number of foreclosure petitions in Massachusetts increased 126.3 percent in April compared to April 2013. April's increase follows a 133.2 percent year-over-year increase in March. A foreclosure petition is the first step in the Massachusetts foreclosure process. Not every foreclosure petition filed will result in a completed foreclosure. In fact, with the increase in home prices over the last two years, some homeowners facing foreclosure may simply sell their homes to avoid foreclosure.

Conventional wisdom among many real estate professionals is that Massachusetts home sales have declined for the past few months because of the lack of inventory, but some home buyers may just be fed up with the bidding wars in some communities.
More home buyers are just refusing to make offers at or significantly over list price when too many list prices already appear overpriced. Home buyers are seeking alternatives, such as buying condominiums over single-family homes and considering cities and towns that have not been swept up in the bidding war hysteria. Home buyers may just be tired of hearing, "All offers due Tuesday by noon."
