An estimated 4.76% of home mortgages in Vermont were seriously delinquent in the second quarter of 2010. No other state in New England — and only six states in the U.S. — fared this well, according to recent data from the Mortgage Bankers Association’s National Delinquency Survey.
A loan is considered “seriously delinquent” if it's delinquent by 90 days or more, or if it's entered the foreclosure process.
