Callahan’s Cleveland Diary

183 sheriff’s deeds were filed with the Cuyahoga County Recorder’s Office last week (December 17 through December 21).

Here’s who filed five or more of them:

Deutsche Bank (19)
US Bank (19)
Wells Fargo (16)
Department of HUD (15)
Federal National Mortgage Assn (14)
HSBC Bank (11)
Bank of New York (8)
Household Realty (8)
JP Morgan Chase (7)
Third Federal (6)

(Previous week.)

Christmas Eve at the Justice Center:  According to the Sheriff’s online database, after various last minute withdrawals a total of 169 foreclosed properties were still scheduled for auction this morning in the Justice Center Auditorium.  (That’s not counting a million-dollar package of thirty parcels, including some unsold houses, at the Ashbury Towers development site at West 53rd and Walworth.)

Among this morning’s biggest Grinches… excuse me, plaintiffs: US Bank with 28 sales, Wells Fargo with 23, Deutsche Bank with 19, and JP Morgan Chase with 12.

To all these wonderful folks and their busy, busy lawyers, here’s hoping you get home from the office in time for a lovely holiday.

And that you have a home to go home to.
