Stages Of Foreclosure

A Notice Of Default Begins The Process

Notice Of Default

The Notice of Default or NOD is the first phase of the foreclosure proceedings. The NOD in California is recorded after a borrower fails to meet the terms of the mortgage loan. Usually, the NOD timeframe spans 90 days before the lender takes the next foreclosure step.
At this juncture, the property is deemed to be in pre-foreclosure. The property owner receives a notice by mail with the estimated sale date. Usually, this notice is delivered after the homeowner has missed four months of payments.

Have You Received A Notice Of Trustee Sale?

Notice Of Trustee Sale

After 90 days have passed from the recording of the NOD, the lender issues a Notice of Trustee Sale. This notice is legally actionable and therefore acts as an intent to sell the foreclosed property at auction.

Auction Sale Date Notice

Notice Of Public Sale

The date of the auction depends on one of various factors. Technically, the lender or trustee can schedule an auction 20 days after the Notice of Trustee Sale is posted. Nevertheless, you can postpone this event in one of a number of ways. As a result, some homeowners can delay an auction for as long as a year.
Foreclosure sales must take place on a business day between the hours of 9AM and 5PM. They must occur at the site that is listed in the Notice of Sale. The trustee auctions the property to the highest bidder, which may the lender. A borrower is permitted to delay or postpone the sale for one day.

Bank Sale

Bank Repossession

Many times, the lender is the only party that can bid on the foreclosed property. In turn, the house goes back to the lender. If this happens, the homeowner may be able to regain his or her title after the auction sale. This can be done with the help of an experienced foreclosure lawyer.
