The foreclosure rate remains twice that of the national long-term average and CoreLogic attributes it to the individual state rates. Here are the top 10 states with the highest rates of foreclosure.

CoreLogic reported that in June 2015, New York's foreclosure inventory rate (the percentage of residential mortgages in some state of foreclosure) was 3.7 percent, three times the national rate for the month of 1.3 percent and second among states (New Jersey had 4.7 percent).

A steep decline in foreclosure filings in Missouri has dropped the Show Me State from the middle of the pack down to having one of the lowest foreclosure rates among states in November, according to RealtyTrac's U.S. Foreclosure Market Report for November 2014 released late last week.

The number of residential foreclosure filings in the U.S. declined by 9 percent from October to November despite a yearly spike in the number of foreclosure starts (scheduled auctions), according to RealtyTrac's U.S. Foreclosure Market Report for November 2014 released Thursday.

While foreclosure activity in the U.S. spiked by 15 percent from September to October, the largest monthly increase in four years, 10 states still saw a month-over-month decline in foreclosures in October, according to RealtyTrac's October 2014 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report released earlier this week.

According to RealtyTrac's October 2014 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report released on Thursday, foreclosure filings – which include default notices, schedule auctions, and bank repossessions (REOs) – increased in October by a staggering 412 percent from their September totals.

The number of foreclosure filings, which include default notices, schedule auctions, and bank repossessions (REOs), increased by 15 percent from September to October, the largest month-over-month jump since the peak of foreclosure activity in March 2010, according to RealtyTrac's October 2014 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report released Thursday.

A surge in foreclosure activity for Maryland in October pushed the state into the top spot among states with the highest foreclosure rate in the nation, according to RealtyTrac's October 2014 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report released Thursday.

Foreclosure activity plummeted in New Mexico both in the third quarter and in September, according to RealtyTrac's Q3 2014 Foreclosure Report recently released.

Maryland saw a spike in foreclosure activity in the third quarter that gave it the second highest foreclosure rate in the nation behind only Florida, according to RealtyTrac's Third Quarter 2014 Foreclosure Report released earlier this week.
