The Stages of Foreclosure Stage 1: Default of Payment. Stage 2: Notice of Default. Stage 3: Notice of Sale. Stage 4: Foreclosure Sale. Stage 5: Eviction.
One way to attack a foreclosure is to argue that the foreclosing party does not have standing to foreclose. If the foreclosing party cannot produce the promissory note on which the loan is based, the court likely will dismiss the case.
