According to the quarterly National Delinquency Survey conducted by the Mortgage Bankers Association, Vermont is faring better than most states in terms of delinquencies and foreclosures.

Only six states have a lower rate of serious delinquency and only 15 have a lower rate of loans in foreclosure, as of June 30, 2009.

This survey is estimated to cover approximately 85 percent of all first-lien mortgages outstanding.
