ZIP 51560 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

DLRadar grades ZIP 51560 (Pottawattamie County, Iowa) at a low 26/100 for overall property distress. What sets it apart are the readings on institutional ownership (58/100), structural risk (58/100), mortgage stress (21/100). On the quiet end sit mortgage stress (21/100) and construction/permit lag (8/100). Environmental exposure also runs high (flood (NFIP) exposure (96/100), climate & FEMA risk (82/100)). The latent-versus-live split is 58/100 structural and 6/100 already moving.

Prices here sit in a neutral phase: values rose 3.8% over the trailing year, and 57% higher over three years (phase confidence 24/100). Even climbing markets leave specific parcels in distress; the scoring isolates them.

Households earn a median $71,442 — near the roughly $78,000 national figure. Rent burden reaches 24% of tenant households. 65% of housing is owner-occupied. About 21% have a four-year degree. The demographic-stress sub-score lands at 27/100. A median home runs $177,100 here, or 2.2 times local income. Roughly 15.1% live below the poverty line. The ZIP holds roughly 847 housing units. 1,902 residents call 51560 home, typically aged 39. Vacancy runs 16.2%, above the national norm and a classic distress-and-opportunity signal.

Taken together, 51560 profiles as an active-distress market where motivated-seller and below-market acquisitions concentrate. No parcel file is published for 51560 yet, but every score above is drawn from a verifiable public dataset and refreshed as records post.

No ZIP is too small to score: 51560 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 26/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. 51560 carries no interpolated values - each figure ties to a public source and refreshes the moment new records land.

Behind 51560'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. For a buyer, 51560 is one row in a larger workflow: confirm the score, pull the distressed parcels behind it, then move from signal to funded, closed acquisition through DLRadar.
