At the auction, your home will be sold to the highest bidder. The vast majority of California foreclosures are nonjudicial , meaning the bank does not have to go through a court to foreclose. If your home is sold in a nonjudicial foreclosure, your responsibility ends once the home is sold. You may, however, still owe a second mortgage if you have one that was not used to purchase the house for example, a home equity line of credit.
If there was no deficiency, you may repurchase your home for up to 3 months after the sale. If there was a deficiency, you can purchase your home for up to 1 year after the sale. In reality, those are just the legal minimum times and most foreclosures take much longer. This bill stops banks from continuing the foreclosure process while a loan modification application is pending.
There are really only two ways to stop a foreclosure: make a big enough payment to bring the loan current or file bankruptcy. If you can get the cash together to make up for back payments, interest, and other expenses and fees, you can pull your home out of the foreclosure process.
You can also stop the foreclosure by filing bankruptcy. Depending on the type of bankruptcy you choose to file, you may be able to catch up your mortgage through your bankruptcy plan payments. Remember that you can step in at any point along the California foreclosure timeline to stop the process, right up until the auction itself.

If the foreclosure is on the owner's residence or the residence of the owner's spouse or child, then the owner merely loses the property but does not have to pay a deficiency. However, anyone else who guaranteed payment of the debt will have to pay the deficiency.
After the sale, the owner has days to buy the property back from the purchaser for an amount equal to the auction price paid, plus interest and anything the purchaser had to pay for such items as taxes and maintenance. This is known as a right of redemption. In order to redeem the property, the owner must serve the purchaser of the property with a notice of owner's desire to redeem the property. The notice must state the date and time the owner will make payment to the sheriff and the redemption amount.
The notice of redemption must be served on the purchaser no more than 30 days and no less than 14 days before the payment date the owner specifies in the notice of redemption. The holder of a trust deed can foreclose without going to court, too, through a foreclosure by "advertisement and sale" or non-judicial foreclosure. The trustee mails a notice of default and a "notice of home loss danger" to the owner and any other persons holding an interest in the property of the amount of the debt and the sale date, time and place, and publishes notice of the sale in a newspaper.
The trustee then auctions off the property to satisfy the debt, the attorney fees and foreclosure costs. Following the sale, the owner must move out of the property within 10 days of the sale. This foreclosure process takes approximately days. In this kind of foreclosure of a trust deed, the owner has no right of redemption after the sale.
However, when the foreclosure is by "advertisement and sale," the owner does not have to pay a deficiency, either, if the property is residential property.
In addition, the owner can stop the foreclosure by paying all delinquent payments together with trustee's and attorney fees and costs at any time up to 5 days before the scheduled sale date.
The trustee will then file a notice in the county records showing that the foreclosure proceeding has ended. Foreclosure often prevents lien holders from seeking a deficiency against the debtor. This protection can be lost if the debtor elects to do a short sale to prevent the foreclosure. It is important to speak with an attorney before doing a short sale. Mortgages A mortgage is similar to a trust deed but does not involve a third party trustee.
With a mortgage, the owner gives a lien on the property as collateral for the debt. A mortgage can be foreclosed by filing a lawsuit in the circuit court of the county in which the property is located. The foreclosure is handled in the same manner in which a court foreclosure of a trust deed is handled.
