FAQ
Foreclosure is when a lender uses a legal process to force the sale of a property (like a home) to cover a debt. This can happen when someone takes out a mortgage to buy a home and then stops making payments (defaults on the mortgage).
California's new foreclosure laws emphasize homeowners' rights and aim to reduce the stress associated with foreclosure. Some of the most impactful changes include: Enhanced Notification: Lenders must give more straightforward notices with specific timelines, allowing titleholders to understand their options.
A judicial foreclosure is subject to a four-year statute of limitations and is subject to a post-sale redemption right unless the deficiency claim is waived. In a judicial foreclosure, a borrower can be reinstated if there was a curable default throughout the entire process.
For Residential Cases. Lender must mail you information on getting help at least 90 days before starting a court case. Lender asks court for a judgment on default and to appoint a Referee to decide the amount you owe and write a report. Lender asks court to accept the Referee's findings. Judge orders sale of your home.
It takes at least 6 to 8 months for a fore- closure lawsuit to go from summons and complaint to auction — even if you ignore the court case. In reality, however, the process is taking much longer.
