Arkansas residential foreclosures in January were up 29 percent from a year earlier but down 16 percent from December, according to a national tracking firm.
The state's ratio of one foreclosure for every 849 houses last month ranks Arkansas as 22nd-highest in the country, according to Irvine, Calif.-based RealtyTrac.
Nationally, some form of foreclosure filing was reported last month on more than 274,000 properties, 18 percent more than in January 2008 but 10 percent less than in December last year. That is one foreclosure for every 466 housing units in the country.
"I think that really serves to underscore once again just how connected Arkansas is to the rest of the national economy," said Kathy Deck, director of the Center for Business and Economic Research at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
Arkansas' ranking has remained in the No. 20 to No. 23 range for months, Deck said.
Washington and Benton counties in Northwest Arkansas are keeping Arkansas high in the rankings, according to Realty-Trac.

Can we get a 125% 2nd mortgage in Arkansas? If so, what bank or mortgage business?
Jun 02, 2006 by Char1027 | Posted in Renting & Real Estate
mortgages are based on actual value of the house determined by a licensed appraiser./
you will never get 125%
why should the bank lend you more than the collateral is worth.

mortgage broker training in Russellville Arkansas?
Jul 11, 2006 by aceboom2002 | Posted in Financial Services
I would like to find out information on becoming a mortgage broker. I read that you can work from your home and make over a hundred thousand a year.
Sorry to burst your bubble but I've been a mortgage loan officer for more than 20 years and I'll tell you right now, there are too many variations in this business for anyone to get basic training and work strictly out of their home and make that kind of money. In order to make that kind of money you have to be good at it, you have to have a reputation for being honest, ethical, experienced, and you can't do that as a rookie from home.
If you are truly interested in this as a career, get some training from a mortgage bank, work in an office environment and pattern yourself after the most successful loan office in the place and work your tail off for a few years. After that you may choose to work out of your home and you may succeed. Initially, you need the interaction, the learning you get through osmosis, so that you can do what you say you're going to do when you say you're going to do it and not over promise and under deliver.
