Lawler: Table of Distressed Sales and Cash buyers for Selected Cities in June

From housing economist Tom Lawler:

Based on a survey of a relatively small sample of realtors that does not necessarily represent the overall market, the NAR alleged that foreclosure sales were 8% of last month’s sales, down from 13% last June; that short sales were 7% of last month’s sales compared to 12% last June; that first-time home buyers comprised 29% of last month’s transactions, down from 32% last June; that all-cash buyers comprised 31% of last month’s sales, up from 29% last June; and that “individual investors” comprised 17% of last month’s sales, down from 19% last June.

CR Note: This is an updated table for a number of cities where distress sales are reported.  Lawler has included the NAR's Confidence Index Report.  Most of the reporting areas experienced a high percentage of distressed sales (Las Vegas, Phoenix, California, Florida, etc), and it appears that distressed sales are declining just about everywhere.
