But the Birmingham movers don’t have news that’s all good–apparently, even though the number is lower that last year, it’s still higher than January 2012. The filings were up about 8 percent from January. However, the state of Alabama is still on the better end of the national average for foreclosure filings. Hopefully this will remain the case in coming months.

Alabama borrowers (who qualify) will get an average of about $15,000. But it won’t necessarily be cut as a check–some of the payout will be in other forms, such as unemployment forbearance.

The effects could be great or damaging: as the payouts remove homes from bank databases, there will be more leeway for increasing home prices that are up for current mortgages. The Birmingham movers will be here to help navigate this as new developments come to light.

Claims range from houses to cars, businesses and other personal property. Once settled, industry professionals believe that the totals will tally around $3 billion. Moving on from the unexpected Alabama catastrophe has proven easier said than done.

Considering the home sales of 2010 were largely impacted by the first-time home buyer’s tax credit, there is certainly potential for the market to lapse last year’s numbers which aren’t that much higher than where we are now. In fact, the Birmingham movers are impressed to say that so far, the home sales for 2011 in Birmingham are trailing 2010 by only 7 percent.
