While these states experienced decreases this quarter, they have exhibited significant fluctuations over the past decade. Each state is showing a continuous overall increase in foreclosures.
Texas had a total of 70 commercial foreclosures in June 2024, a 1% decrease from last month and a 100% increase from a year ago.
