The Unemployment Rate in the United States is up to 5.0% in April 2008! That means that 7.6 million Americans are without work right now! Those are American families with mortgages and bills and no job! So you are definitely not alone!

For the year end data from 2007, the U.S. foreclosure activity increased 75 percent from 2006! That is a total over 2.2 million foreclosure filings- default notices, auction sale notices, bank repossessions- reported on over nearly 1.3 million properties nationwide. That means more than 1 percent of all U.S. households were in some stage of foreclosure during the year. This shows foreclosure is affecting everyone around us.
