From the Washington Business Journal:

Potential homebuyers are less likely to consider a foreclosed property even as foreclosure rates continue to climb, according to a study commissioned by Trulia.com and RealtyTrac.

Only 47 percent of U.S. adults said they would consider buying a foreclosed property, down from 54 percent just seven months earlier.
