A Judicial Sale Foreclosure Auction

By:


A judicial sale foreclosure auction is the most common way that lenders begin the foreclosure process. Every state allows for a judicial sale. The judicial route is the slow method of a foreclosure auction.

When you fall short on your loan and a lender is threatening to send you to a foreclosure auction they will have to file a suit through the court systems. This is when you will receive letters from the court demanding payment from you. When this letter is sent there will also be an advertisement in the public announcements section of the local newspaper. This will have your name on it and the property address and a notification that you are in default of your loan and in threat of foreclosure.

In most cases, you have 30 days to respond to a foreclosure auction letter when they demand payment. You should respond with the payment and not just a phone call. If this 30 days ends and they have not received a payment from you then a judgment will be entered into the courts and the bank can request the house be sold at a foreclosure auction.

When the auction is carried out it is held by the sheriffs office. This usually takes place from 6 months to a year after you have defaulted on your payments. You do not have to move out of the property until the house has been sold at the auction. The sheriffs office will actually serve you with an eviction notice upon the sale and that is when you must be out of the house immediately upon receipt of the notice.

A judicial sale is a foreclosure auction that all states practice when a home owner fails to pay on the loan of their home. This process can take many months to complete and you do not have to move out of the home until the process is complete.
