Sales of bank-owned homes and properties in some stage of foreclosure accounted for 28% of all U.S. residential sales in quarter one, up from 27% in the fourth quarter, RealtyTrac said Thursday in its 1Q 2011 survey.

The foreclosure data firm added that the average sales price of properties in foreclosure fell 1.89%, hitting $168,321 during the same period.

The average sales price for properties in foreclosure also fell approximately 27% below prime properties, the report said.

During the quarter, third-parties acquired 158,434 U.S. bank-owned homes and properties in some stage of the foreclosure process, down 16% from the revised fourth-quarter figures and 36% from year-ago levels.
