Bath County, VA: Foreclosures, Tax Liens & Distressed Properties

Bath County, Virginia sits inside DLRadar's nationwide distress index, built entirely from public records. Bank/credit headwind for the county is 55 on a 0–100 scale, a moderate reading. The county spans 7 scored ZIP codes, averaging 6/100 composite distress. Individual Bath County ZIPs score between 1 and 24 on the 0–100 composite.

In its expansion phase, Bath County home prices rose 5.5% across the last year (phase confidence 30/100). Even as prices climb, some owners fall behind anyway where the composite stays elevated.

Through Bath County's +5.5% YoY climb (30/100 confidence), distress still hides in specific ZIPs — and a rising tide cleans up those exits. Mid-range bank stress at 55/100 implies both signal sets in play here.

The most-distressed ZIP codes in Bath County are 24432 (24/100), 24422 (12/100), 24445 (3/100), 24412 (1/100), 24460 (1/100), 24484 (1/100), each with its own full DLRadar report. Also scored across the county: 24487.

Underneath the scores, the Bath County ZIPs on file run a 11.1% poverty rate, vacancy near 35.5%, incomes around $54,345, 83% owner-occupancy, home values averaging roughly $191,143, below the US, residents with a median age around 50.2. Read together, they drive the kind of distress to expect and the buyer pool on exit.

Net of it all, 6/100 over 7 ZIPs means the edge is selective acquisition for a disciplined buyer. A DLRadar subscription opens every Bath County parcel: owner, address and APN, a distress score plus a funding-to-closing path.

Bath County, Virginia is best worked from the top of the score down; blanket outreach across Bath County dilutes effort that the ZIP-level numbers would have focused.

The ZIP breakdown for Bath County leads with 24432 (24/100), 24422 (12/100), 24445 (3/100), 24412 (1/100), 24460 (1/100), 24484 (1/100). DLRadar also scores 24487 across the county. Because each ZIP is graded on its own foreclosure, tax and lender record, the county's distress is best read code by code rather than as a single number.

DLRadar's composite for Bath County blends several independent signals — foreclosure and pre-foreclosure filings, mortgage stress, tax delinquency and liens, and the bank-stress headwind of the lenders operating locally — into one 0–100 score per ZIP, so a market can rank high on one axis and low on another.
