COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - If you're looking for a deal on a house, the Tri-State is a great place to buy.

Listing firm RealtyTrac, Inc. says the average sale price for a foreclosed home from July to September in Ohio was less than $80,000.

That is a 45 percent discount from the average selling price of properties that are not distressed, the highest in the country. Foreclosed Kentucky homes offered a 41 percent discount.

The average foreclosure discount nationwide during the quarter was 32 percent.
