There are a lot of connected problems

There are a lot of connected problems with foreclosures in Atlanta. It is not just about making someone homeless. With so many foreclosure homes in Atlanta, all occurring in a concentrated form in various parts of the city, they lead to the problems of homelessness, crimes in these empty homes, depreciation of the neighborhood in which the empty homes are present, loss of the tax income the state gets and a general loss of face for the city.

Another disturbing trend seen in Georgia, and notably Atlanta, is the large number of African Americans who are bearing the brunt of increasing foreclosures. In present times, most of the foreclosure homes for sale used to belong to African American people of the state who took the benefit of the riskier loans due to their affluent status and the privileges Armani Sunglasses,accorded to minorities.
