York County, SC: Foreclosures, Tax Liens & Distressed Properties

These fundamentals drive the volume of pressured sellers and the exit liquidity behind them.

At 28/100 composite over 15 ZIPs, York County rewards parcel-by-parcel work — work it parcel by parcel. Subscribers get each York County parcel's owner, APN and address, a per-parcel score, lender exposure and exit read.

In York County, South Carolina, the scores are a targeting tool first: they tell you which ZIPs hold the distress and which owners are most likely under real financial pressure, so limited acquisition effort lands where it converts. All of it is deterministic and auditable: York County's numbers come from county recorders, the courts, FHFA and FDIC, with nothing interpolated or guessed when a source is sparse.

Drilling in, York County's highest-scoring ZIPs are 29708 (29/100), 29710 (29/100), 29715 (29/100), 29717 (29/100), 29726 (29/100), 29730 (29/100). DLRadar also scores 29732, 29733, 29743, 29745, 29742, 29706, 29702, 29704 and more across the county. Every one of these is scored independently — a ZIP's composite reflects its own recorded distress, which is why the county average alone hides where the real pressure sits.

Under York 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.
