Additional key findings in the March MarketPulse report include:

• The time it takes for a distressed property to pass through the entire disposition timeline has risen across all states in the last eight years from an average of seven months to 24 months in non-judicial foreclosure states and 35 months in judicial foreclosure states.
• The decline in REO inventories driven by investor demand has been uneven across markets. Midwestern and northeastern markets continue to struggle with REO inventory levels, while some markets in the South and Southwest have experienced massive declines.
• Institutional investors accelerated REO purchases in select markets in 2012, most notably in Las Vegas, Atlanta and Phoenix, while individual investor activity was responsible for declines in REO inventory in California markets.
