ZIP 29206 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

On DLRadar's 0-100 public-record scale, ZIP 29206 in Richland County, South Carolina comes in at 31, a moderate composite-distress reading. Its heaviest discrete signals: institutional ownership (69/100), structural risk (66/100), mortgage stress (26/100). By contrast, mortgage stress (26/100) and construction/permit lag (12/100) register low. On the structural side it scores 66/100, with 8/100 of stress already active.

Prices here sit in a peak phase: values rose 3.6% over the trailing year, and 19% higher over three years (phase confidence 24/100). At a peak the opportunity is selective — specific stressed parcels, not a broad discount.

The poverty rate is 6.8% — low. Population is roughly 20,054 with a median age of 38. Rent burden reaches 42% of tenant households. Educational attainment sits at 64% bachelor's-or-above.

On balance 29206 is mixed, rewarding parcel-by-parcel screening over broad assumptions. There is no property file for 29206 at the moment; the composite and its components are still built from verifiable public records.

Whether 29206 runs hot or quiet, its 31/100 composite is built the same deterministic way as every ZIP in the country — from recorded foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, climate and lender signals — so 29206 can be compared directly against any other ZIP in Richland County, South Carolina or nationwide. The score is rebuilt from public data as it updates, so 29206 reflects the current record instead of a stale or modeled snapshot.

29206's headline rolls up several separately-scored signals, which is why two ZIPs can share a composite yet face very different distress. The point of the 29206 score is action: it tells you whether to open the ZIP, and DLRadar takes it from there to parcels, funding and close.
