Few Foreclosures In R. C. Holdings
Pierre November 22. Records show only seventy seven contracts have been cancelled and mortgages foreclosed in the last year by the South Dakota rural credits department Director Millard G. Scott said today. He noted 127 tracts sold in Brookings County in two and a half years none returned to the state. Owners built equity attracting banks and insurers to buy notes and mortgages. Scott says a citizenry of homeowners will speed South Dakota’s recovery as rural credit tracts fade and property improvements rise.
