Ignore their very misleading headline and take a close look at paragraphs 4 and 5.

That looks like gathering storm clouds to me...

Proceed with caution.

So I was actually just reading this same exact article. Does this match up with what you all are seeing? I have been monitoring Notice of Defaults in Cobb and Cherokee County for awhile. I haven't really seen this drastic up tick in those counties. Please also note this is talking about foreclosure starts meaning a notice of default has been issued but may not result in an actual foreclosure on the court house steps.
