The key takeaways from ATTOM Data Solutions’ newly released November 2020 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report revealed that foreclosure filings were down 14 percent from October 2020, Florida posted the highest foreclosure rate and greatest number of REOs, and while foreclosure starts were down across the nation, a few states did see monthly increases in November 2020.

According to ATTOM’s latest foreclosure market analysis, there were 10,042 U.S. properties with foreclosure filings — default notices, scheduled auctions or bank repossessions — in November 2020. While reported just a dip from the previous month, that figure is still down 80 percent from November 2019.

ATTOM’s November 2020 foreclosure report also noted that nationwide one in every 13,581 housing units had a foreclosure filing during the month. The report mentioned the states with the highest foreclosure rates were Florida (one in every 7,109 housing units with a foreclosure filing); Illinois (one in every 7,285 housing units); Oklahoma (one in every 8,128 housing units); New Mexico (one in every 9,236 housing units); and Delaware (one in every 9,310 housing units).

The analysis also reported that lenders foreclosed (REO) on a total of 2,010 U.S. properties in November 2020, down 22 percent from October 2020 and down 86 percent from November 2019. The report noted that the states with the greatest number of completed foreclosures (REOs) in November 2020, included Florida (273 REOs filed); Illinois (167 REOs filed); California (164 REOs filed); Arizona (141 REOs filed); and Georgia (117 REOs filed).
