Interesting data. Doesn't look like too much action on the foreclosure front yet - not much change year over year.
I find that for data with a strong seasonal component, a bar chart showing each month separately works best - see what Calculated Risk does here: http://calculatedrisk.blogspot.com/2005/06/may-new-home-sales-1298-million.html
That allows one to compare whether May 2005 is bigger or smaller than May 2004 much more easily than the line graph. Just a thought.
