Understanding the U.S. Foreclosure Map and What It Means for Homeowners
Worried about the recent foreclosure headlines? While the media may be stirring fear, the reality of today’s housing market tells a very different story. According to 2025 foreclosure data from ATTOM, only 0.13% of homes nationwide just 1 in every 758 have filed for foreclosure, far below the levels seen during the 2010 housing crash, where the rate was 1 in 45 homes. While foreclosure starts are up slightly this year, overall activity remains historically low. Stronger lending standards, higher homeowner equity, and more available options for those facing hardship are key reasons why today’s market is not in crisis. If you're a local homeowner concerned about foreclosure or if you want to understand how these trends affect your home value, contact a trusted real estate agent or foreclosure specialist near you.
