North Olmsted Foreclosures Down 45%: NEO CANDO Data

Using data from NEO CANDO, Michael Gareau Jr., director of law of North Olmsted, reported that foreclosures in the city have declined from 118 between January 1 through September 30, 2014 to only 65 during the same period of 2015. Gareau explained these findings to the North Olmsted city council on November 4 according to a Cleveland.com article.

In addition to the decrease in foreclosures, the average real estate sales price went up. "All in all, I think it is some good information that shows, hopefully, things are going in the right direction," Gareau said.
