How mortgage-distress properties work as a signal
Mortgage distress flags borrowers showing strain — missed payments, rising balances, or terms pointing toward trouble — before the case ever reaches a public foreclosure docket. Catching distress at this stage means reaching owners at the earliest possible moment, ahead of the investors who only work the foreclosure list.
