The number of homes scheduled for auction in the February auction on the Tarrant County Courthouse steps is down by 14 percent from 2007.
Numbers released by Addison-based Foreclosure Listing Service show that 1,521 homes are scheduled for February 3 auction, down from 1,775 in February 2008. It is suspected that the February 2008 number was artificially high since the January foreclosure auction fell on New Year’s Day, a holiday.
Dallas and Denton counties postings fell 8 and 5 percent respectively to 2,171 and 540.
