Real Estate Armageddon. Discuss your foreclosure story here

Everyone in the US has been hit very hard, but it looks like the worst may still be to come. I found this interesting video about the people who have been forced to give up their homes. It's a very interesting video on how bad it has gotten and what is left once a home has been foreclosed:

CNN also posted an article about a woman trying to shoot herself...literally...because sheriffs were trying to evict her from her home.

Another interesting thing to point out is the word "foreclosure" has been searched on google over 200% the amount it was searched in 2005. FYI there are 54 million pages on the net covering the topic...I would think a lot of them are recent as well. Very sad indeed.

If you have been hit hard and possibly had to sell up, or know of anyone that has, let us hear your story.
