Foreclosure filings on U.S. homes were up 3 percent in October from a month ago, but down 19 percent from a year ago, according to RealtyTrac's latest foreclosure report.

One in every 706 homes received a foreclosure filing in October.

“We continued to see vastly different foreclosure trends across the country in October, depending primarily on how each state’s foreclosing infrastructure was able to handle the high volume of delinquent loans during the worst of the foreclosure crisis in 2010,” said Daren Blomquist vice president of RealtyTrac in a press release.

We highlighted the 12 states that were still being crushed by foreclosures in October. The three states with the biggest increases, namely New Jersey, New York and Connecticut didn't make our list which is ranked by foreclosure rates.
