Benton County, IN: Foreclosures, Tax Liens & Distressed Properties

Benton County, Indiana is scored end-to-end by DLRadar for property distress, drawn only from deterministic public records. County-level credit and bank headwind reads 47/100. Individual Benton County ZIPs score between 1 and 22 on the 0–100 composite. The county spans 11 scored ZIP codes, averaging 8/100 composite distress.

The county market is in a peak phase: home prices rose 3.4% over the past year, at 23/100 phase confidence. With values leveling off, broad sweeps stop paying as the ZIP scores below show.

With Benton County flat at +3.4% YoY (23/100 confidence), the wins are surgical so the headline market won't hand it over. Mid-range bank stress at 47/100 points to both signal sets in play here.

Distress concentrates in ZIP 47995 (22/100), ZIP 47970 (14/100), ZIP 47948 (13/100), ZIP 47977 (11/100), ZIP 47975 (8/100), ZIP 47917 (6/100) — drill into any for the parcel-level read. The breakdown continues through 47921, 47942, 47944, 47971, 47986 and more.

Demographically, Benton County's tracked footprint report poverty running near 13.6%, home values averaging roughly $151,490, below the US, incomes around $67,252, a median age of 40.6, a 9.2% vacancy rate, 84% of homes owner-occupied. Numbers like these set up where pressure builds and how liquid the exit will be.

Benton County, Indiana's 8/100 average over 11 ZIPs says the opportunity hides below the average and not a county-wide play. Subscribers get each Benton County parcel's owner, address and APN, a distress score and bank-exposure read.

Whether Benton County, Indiana carries heavy distress or only a handful of flagged parcels, every score here is built the same deterministic way — from recorded foreclosures, tax delinquency, liens and lender stress — so Benton County can be compared directly against any county in the country.

For an acquisition buyer, the practical use of Benton County, Indiana's scores is triage: the ZIPs and parcels carrying the highest composite are where motivated sellers and below-market exits concentrate, while lower-scored areas rarely justify the marketing spend. Nothing in the Benton County read is modelled: recorder and court filings drive foreclosure and lien signals, FHFA sets the price cycle, FDIC the lender stress, and a thin source stays blank.

At the ZIP level, the sharpest readings in Benton County are 47995 (22/100), 47970 (14/100), 47948 (13/100), 47977 (11/100), 47975 (8/100), 47917 (6/100). DLRadar also scores 47921, 47942, 47944, 47971, 47986 across the county. Each code carries its own composite built from that ZIP's foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien and lender signals, so two neighboring ZIPs can diverge sharply even inside one county.

Under Benton County's headline composite sit distinct layers — recorded foreclosures, tax and lien delinquency, mortgage stress and bank headwind — each scored separately before they roll up, so the same total can describe very different markets.
