ZIP 28770 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

ZIP code 28770 in Buncombe County, North Carolina carries a composite property-distress score of 29/100 — a low reading on DLRadar's deterministic distress index. On the structural side it scores 62/100, with 0/100 of stress already active. The most distinctive pressure shows up in institutional ownership (63/100), structural risk (62/100). Environmental exposure also runs high (flood (NFIP) exposure (100/100), climate & FEMA risk (89/100), FEMA disaster exposure (77/100)).

The market reads peak — home values rose 0.8% year on year (phase confidence 18/100). At a peak the opportunity is selective — specific stressed parcels, not a broad discount.

The ZIP holds roughly 21 housing units.

On balance 28770 is mixed, rewarding parcel-by-parcel screening over broad assumptions. 28770 has no individual parcels listed at present; the signals above still come from the same audited public sources used nationwide.

The number is not local guesswork: 28770's 29/100 comes from the same nationwide foreclosure, tax, mortgage and lender model, making it directly comparable anywhere. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 28770, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

Behind 28770's composite sit distinct signals (foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, lender and structural), each scored on its own before rolling up, so two ZIPs with the same total can describe very different situations on the ground. In workflow terms, 28770 is a go/no-go - the score says whether to drill in, then DLRadar carries you to parcels, capital and closing.
