While Baton Rouge Louisiana did not see nearly the number of foreclosures that other parts of the Country saw it is still a relief to see that new foreclosure activity is decreasing.  The latest figures that have been reported show the fourth quarter of 2009 having a lower percentage of foreclosures.  As the number of foreclosures declines, a light at the end of the tunnel seems to be in sight.

Baton Rouge was able to avoid the amazing amounts of foreclosures that were seen in areas like Florida, California and Nevada in part due to the fact that lending institutions did not get caught up in giving money away with no documentation and no money down.

Baton Rouge LA is doing its part to create jobs and come out ahead.  The news of fewer foreclosures is seen as a positive throughout the region and the entire United States.
