VERMONT LEADS NATION IN FORECLOSURE REDUCTION  According to analysis by the Mortgage Bankers Association, three states experienced decreases in year-over-year foreclosure starts — Vermont (down 26%), South Dakota (down 17%), and Utah (down 16%).  The numbers reflect eleven states that posted more than a 100 percent increase in foreclosure inventories, including Arizona, California, Nevada and Florida.  Unfortunately the media attention is on those states in peril and not on the more stable Vermont market.
