It is really important to understand the stages of San Diego foreclosures. The basic stages of mortgage foreclosures include notice of default, notice of trustee sale, and auction or foreclosure sale.
Notice of Default
The process of foreclosure starts with the lender’s notice of default. The notice must be given to the homeowner and must be recorded in compliance with the California State Foreclosure Laws. A mortgage borrower and homeowner has until five days before the foreclosure sale to catch up and become current on all mortgage payments so as to avoid foreclosure.
Notice of Trustee Sale
A notice of trustee sale sets up the auction date for the property and is sent three months after a notice of default has been recorded. A homeowner is allowed to occupy the home during this period.
Auction or Foreclosure Sale
Twenty days after the filing of the notice of trustee sale an auction can legally take place. There are certain factors that can prevent a sale to be postponed for a period of up to one year. Once a property is sold either to the lender or a third party, the title gets transferred and the initial homeowner must vacate the home.
