SYRACUSE -- A new housing report by Corelogic finds foreclosure rates are on the rise in Syracuse.
The report finds foreclosure rates were up in February by more than 2.5 percent. That's up almost three quarters of one percent from the same time last year.
The good news is that Syracuse's foreclosure rate is actually lower than the national rate, which sits at over 3.5 percent.
The report also finds homeowners are having trouble keeping up with their house payments. The local mortgage delinquency rate is almost 5.5 percent, more than it was at this time last year.
