I'm guessing the privately held banks are more open to ORE. Is that what you've seen?

yeah that is probably true, but the regulators are the ones who really monitor OREO...and they are sure to manage the amount held very closely.

I'm seeing several banks holding some property. I know they don't want to be in the land holding business, but if they can hold on long enough, the banks will be the ones to profit, IMO.

IMO banks will not be holding on to these properties long enough for the properties to go back up to the original sale prices (which can be a long, long time).

Holding them on their books at the bubble prices keeps the bank's asset column lookin' good--for now. But the Fed is not going to allow these high-priced REOs stack up on the bank's books while the properties sit empty, rotting on the vine, as surrounding properties' prices tick downward. The area banks will eventually have to auction these properties off to the highest bidder or risk a sharp smack on the snoot by the Fed.

I'd say Wall Street looks pretty closely at it as well, and any market but especially this one, that will kill your stock price.
