In order to determine the long-term damage of foreclosures, LendingTree conducted a study to assess how credit scores trend following a default, and how lenders loan to borrowers with a foreclosure listed on their financial records. According to their findings, foreclosed-borrowers tend to face more financial obstacles than their counterparts when reentering the housing market.
