Homeowners in Lincoln County named in a foreclosure filing who still hold the deed. This is the window before the auction, while an equity sale is still on the table. Owner and property data from public records.

About Lincoln County

Lincoln County at a glance

What makes the Lincoln County market different

  • 22% of housing units in Lincoln County stand vacant, against 10% nationally. An empty house still carries taxes, insurance and upkeep, and owners who inherited one or moved away are often ready to talk about selling.
  • Lincoln County has an older housing stock: 19% of homes were built before 1940, against 12% nationally. Older homes more often need repairs, a common reason an heir or a stretched owner sells as-is.
  • 23% of Lincoln County residents are 65 or older, against 17% nationally. An older owner base is where estates, downsizing moves and inherited homes come from.
  • HUD sets the fair market rent for a 3-bedroom home for the Lincoln County, WI area at $1,304 a month, against a median home value of $178K in Lincoln County. Set those two side by side to judge whether a buy-and-hold rental pencils out before you make an offer.
