ZIP 85143 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

Pinal County, Arizona's ZIP 85143 registers 35/100 composite distress, which DLRadar reads as moderate. Its heaviest discrete signals: structural risk (77/100), construction/permit lag (64/100), institutional ownership (63/100). By contrast, mortgage stress (25/100) register low. Structural risk reads 77/100 against active distress of 8/100. Environmental exposure also runs high (climate & FEMA risk (94/100), FEMA disaster exposure (84/100), flood (NFIP) exposure (80/100)).

Prices here sit in a peak phase: values held roughly flat over the trailing year, and 8% higher over three years (phase confidence 11/100). At a peak the opportunity is selective — specific stressed parcels, not a broad discount.

Median household income is $89,501, above the U.S. median near $78,000. 7.2% of residents fall below the poverty threshold. Rent burden reaches 36% of tenant households. The demographic-stress sub-score lands at 31/100. Owners hold 80% of homes, renters 20%. A median home runs $389,200 here, or 3.9 times local income. About 23% have a four-year degree. The ZIP holds roughly 15,999 housing units. Population is roughly 41,517 with a median age of 38. Vacancy runs 11.4%, above the national norm and a classic distress-and-opportunity signal.

Net-net, 85143 is middle-of-the-pack, where the deals are specific addresses rather than the whole ZIP. Every signal above traces to a verifiable public dataset, refreshed continuously and scored the same way in every ZIP nationwide.

No ZIP is too small to score: 85143 passes through the same foreclosure, tax, mortgage and bank-stress model as any major-metro ZIP, so its 35/100 composite is a like-for-like number rather than an isolated estimate. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 85143, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

Behind 85143'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. Practically, 85143 works as a screen — verify the reading, drill to the specific parcels driving it, and carry the deal through capital and closing on the platform.
