Louisiana, BR area still last in the US in equity rich, seriously underwater homes

By ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana Business Editor​ ​ ​

Good morning, Acadiana. Thanks for reading us and the business news we have this morning.

Data released Thursday shows Louisiana continues to lag behind the rest of the country when it comes to the amount of mortgaged homes listed as equity rich and seriously underwater. The state improved in each category slightly from the previous quarter, but with 10.8% of its properties listed as seriously underwater and only 24.5% of homes listed as equity rich, it was well behind the national rate in both categories.

You can read the story here.

Have a great day and see you back here Friday morning.
