What This Means
U.S. foreclosure activity is running above last year but still below the levels seen before 2020. ATTOM counted 40,277 properties with a foreclosure filing in August 2026, up 1 percent from July and 13 percent from August 2025. Lenders started 25,894 foreclosures (up 7 percent from a year earlier) and took back 5,794 homes as REO (up 42 percent). One in every 3,569 housing units had a filing. South Carolina, Nevada, Florida, Texas and Maryland had the highest rates. For the first half of 2026, filings totaled 227,548, 21 percent more than the first half of 2025. ICE reports 296,000 loans in active foreclosure as of July, and MBA puts the share of loans in foreclosure at 0.67 percent for the second quarter.
Method & Caveats
- All figures are published values from ATTOM's monthly U.S. Foreclosure Market Report; month-over-month and year-over-year percentages are ATTOM's own rounded figures.
- The August 2026 release lists the top five states by rate. Per-state filing counts shown here come from ATTOM's July 2026 state table, the most recent full ranking published.
- ATTOM counts properties with a recorded default notice, scheduled auction or bank repossession from county records. ICE and MBA figures count loans and are not directly comparable.
- First-half 2026 totals are from ATTOM's Mid-Year 2026 report (released July 16, 2026). ICE figures are from its First Look for July 2026 (released August 25, 2026). MBA figures are from its Q2 2026 National Delinquency Survey (released August 13, 2026).
