Utah Foreclosures

According to RealtyTrac’s Monthly Foreclosure Report, Utah Ranked 9th Nationally in terms of the percentage of Foreclosure Filings.

In total the state had 833 new Notices of Default, 990 new Notices of Trustee Sales, and 800 New Utah REO Homes. This represents some sort of foreclosure notice from 1 in every 360 properties. The national average is one foreclosure filing for every 400 homes.
