National Foreclosure Rate (late 2025):

*   November 2025: ~1 in every 3,992 housing units had a foreclosure filing (up ~21% YoY). ATTOM[[2]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?mobileaction=toggle_view_mobile&title=Openai%2F696570cf-d43c-8005-b4f7-5c13cd0af19b#cite_note-2)

These figures include foreclosure filings (default notices, scheduled auctions, and bank repossessions), which are a commonly used gauge of foreclosure activity nationally.

Trend Direction:

*   Foreclosure activity has been trending upward throughout 2025, with multiple months showing year-over-year increases. Safeguard Properties[[4]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?mobileaction=toggle_view_mobile&title=Openai%2F696570cf-d43c-8005-b4f7-5c13cd0af19b#cite_note-4)
*   Foreclosure starts (new foreclosure proceedings initiated) and completions (homes repossessed by lenders) have also been rising compared to 2024. ATTOM[[5]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?mobileaction=toggle_view_mobile&title=Openai%2F696570cf-d43c-8005-b4f7-5c13cd0af19b#cite_note-5)

(This means these states had relatively more foreclosure filings per housing unit than the national average.)

##### 📈 How 2025 Compares Historically[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/696570cf-d43c-8005-b4f7-5c13cd0af19b&action=edit&section=7 "Edit section: 📈 How 2025 Compares Historically")

*   Foreclosure rates in 2025 remain elevated compared to 2024, with consistent year-over-year increases throughout the year. Safeguard Properties[[10]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?mobileaction=toggle_view_mobile&title=Openai%2F696570cf-d43c-8005-b4f7-5c13cd0af19b#cite_note-10)
*   Despite the increases, foreclosure activity in 2025 is still well below levels seen during the 2008 housing crisis, and patterns vary significantly by region and economic conditions.

##### 📊 Key Drivers of Trends in 2025[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/696570cf-d43c-8005-b4f7-5c13cd0af19b&action=edit&section=8 "Edit section: 📊 Key Drivers of Trends in 2025")

Several factors influencing foreclosure rates in 2025 include:

*   Elevated mortgage rates keeping monthly payments high.
*   Economic stress among some homeowners leading to more defaults.
*   Rising delinquencies (early signs of payment trouble, often preceding foreclosures). Axios[[11]](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?mobileaction=toggle_view_mobile&title=Openai%2F696570cf-d43c-8005-b4f7-5c13cd0af19b#cite_note-11)
