In 2009, over half of the home sales in Ramsey were foreclosure sales, compared <br />to only 1.4 percent in 2005, as shown in Table 4-13. Since 2009, the percent of foreclosed sales <br />has declined, resulting in 38.1 percent foreclosed home sales in 2012. The Twin Cities area is <br />experiencing a similar trend with 29 percent of sales in the area being foreclosures. In 2013, this <br />rate of foreclosures in Ramsey will need to be worked down before existing home prices <br />stabilize. <br />4-10 <br />
