The upstream picture for Delaware: 56/100 on the lender side, 26/100 on the carrier side.
A distressed Delaware property might be behind on taxes, in pre-foreclosure, priced out of coverage, or simply sitting in a market where financing has dried up. Because all three come from public sources (county filings, FDIC, FEMA/NFIP), you can cross-check a signal rather than trust a single feed.
These Delaware numbers are reproducible from public filings rather than modelled. If a source has nothing to say, neither does the page.

How do I find distressed properties in Delaware?
Narrow before you search. All 3 counties in Delaware carry foreclosure, lender and insurance scores; the 0 in contraction or recovery are where distressed inventory forms first, and each drills down to ZIP and parcel signals.
What makes a property "distressed" in Delaware?
There is no single definition. A Delaware property may be pre-foreclosure, tax-delinquent, effectively uninsurable, or sitting in a credit-starved market — DLRadar scores each from public filings and looks for overlap.
Is Delaware distress data based on public records?
Yes — each Delaware number traces to a public federal or county source: FHFA and county filings for the cycle, FDIC reporting for lender stress, FEMA and NFIP for insurance. No estimation, no scraping.
Can I fund and close a Delaware deal through DLRadar?
