Caldwell County, LA: Foreclosures, Tax Liens & Distressed Properties

Caldwell County, Louisiana sits inside DLRadar's nationwide distress index, built entirely from public records. Lender pressure in Caldwell County registers 66/100 — a elevated bank-stress headwind. The county spans 5 scored ZIP codes, averaging 14/100 composite distress. Individual Caldwell County ZIPs score between 10 and 19 on the 0–100 composite.

The county market is in a contraction phase: home prices held roughly flat over the past year, sitting 2.3% below its cycle peak, at 36/100 phase confidence. With prices easing, equity cushions thin and distressed-to-retail spreads widen.

At -0.1% YoY and 36/100 confidence, patience pays here and you underwrite to today's comps, not the peak. An elevated 66/100 reading favors patient capital: short sales and foreclosures accelerate.

By composite, 71435 (19/100), 71418 (16/100), 71465 (16/100), 71441 (11/100), 71415 (10/100) top the county — tap any ZIP to go deeper.

Profile-wise, Caldwell County's tracked footprint come in at household income averaging about $47,463, below the national median, 13.8% of units sitting vacant, poverty running near 18.4%, median home values around $77,300 (below the national figure), a median age of 41.9, 75% of homes owner-occupied. Taken together, they set up the volume of pressured sellers and the exit liquidity behind them.

All in at 14/100 over 5 ZIPs, the edge is selective acquisition for a disciplined buyer. Subscribers get each Caldwell County parcel's owner and contact detail, APN, a per-parcel score, lender exposure and exit read.

Because Caldwell County, Louisiana is scored on the identical public-record model used nationwide, even a quiet county is measured on one scale — letting you weigh Caldwell County against neighboring markets or the rest of Louisiana on equal footing.

Scores in Caldwell County, Louisiana exist to concentrate effort: a handful of ZIPs hold most of the distress, and the rest seldom justify the acquisition cost. Every figure traces to a public federal or county source — recorder and court records for foreclosure and liens, FHFA for the price cycle, FDIC for lender stress — and DLRadar leaves a signal blank rather than estimating where Caldwell County data is thin.

At the ZIP level, the sharpest readings in Caldwell County are 71435 (19/100), 71418 (16/100), 71465 (16/100), 71441 (11/100), 71415 (10/100). 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 Caldwell 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.
