Text For Investor Pricing146,000+ national foreclosure filings in Q2 2026—up 31% year over year. California: 9,247 starts, highest in 4 years. REO inventory climbing into three-year highs. Real wages stagnating. Household balance sheets compressed by higher rates, property taxes, insurance, inflation. The NOD starts a clock. The trustee sale ends it. What happens in between is entirely determined by how quickly you act. Private capital to cure arrears. Bridge financing to stabilize cash flow and extend timeline. DSCR and asset-based lending to refinance out of distress. Pre-foreclosure sale strategy to protect credit and net proceeds. These tools exist. Most people never hear about them until the window has already closed. July 2026 is when options exist.
