Reply #2: Thank you...I just I'm trying to apply logic to an illogical situation...

It just seems that occupancy would actually help them move them off their balance sheet. A neighborhood that looks occupied instead of abandoned is going to attract real buyers (eventually, when they exist again) and it seems they should have some shared responsibility in their assets. Homeowner associations should enforce maintenance and upkeep on the new owners (the banks) too. I know, illogical, but still..

Again, thanks.
