ForeclosureRadar put together the change in investor activity at trustee sales, for the 10 largest trustee sales markets on the West Coast (within our five-state coverage area of Arizona, California, Nevada, Oregon
and Washington). Activity increased in four markets from first-quarter 2010 to first-quarter 2011 and declined in six.
For reference we also included two other metrics — change in total number of trustee sales, and the percentage of total sales purchase by third parties (investors).
