FAQ
A judge in the Circuit Court of Cook County oversees the foreclosure process, which typically involves the lender filing a lawsuit against the homeowner for defaulting on the mortgage. If the Court finds in favor of the lender, it can result in the forced sale of the property to repay the outstanding mortgage debt.
In Illinois, you can redeem your home until the later of: seven months after you receive the summons of the foreclosure action (or are served by publication if the lender is unable to serve you the foreclosure papers personally) or. three months after the date that the court enters the judgment of foreclosure.
No person shall commence an action or make a sale to foreclose any mortgage or deed of trust in the nature of a mortgage, unless within 10 years after the right of action or right to make such sale accrues.
After the court confirms the sale, foreclosed homeowners in Illinois may stay in the home for a period of 30 days. There are certain circumstances in which a homeowner has a right to redeem after the date of sale.
Once you are delinquent by 120 days or more, your lender can initiate foreclosure proceedings in court. Illinois is a state in which all foreclosures are judicial foreclosures, which means the court system has jurisdiction over the matter.
Foreclosure proceedings begin with a complaint filed by the lender. The borrower is served a copy of the complaint and a summons, along with a notice of his or her rights during foreclosure. In most cases, the borrower has 30 days to file a response. Failure to respond will result in a default judgment for the lender.
