A concise glossary to help you understand common foreclosure terms and concepts used in California law.
The written notice from the lender stating the loan is in default and that foreclosure proceedings may begin.
A clause that makes the entire loan balance due if a borrower misses payments or fails to meet other conditions.
A period during which a borrower may repay the loan and stop a foreclosure after judgment or sale, depending on the legal framework.
A transaction in which the borrower transfers ownership of the property to the lender to avoid foreclosure, often in exchange for release from the loan.
When facing foreclosure, several paths may be available, including loan modification, short sale, deed in lieu, bankruptcy, or foreclosure litigation. Each option has implications for your finances, credit, and long-term housing plans.
If the lender is open to a modification or a clear repayment plan, a focused approach can resolve the case without lengthy litigation.
When negotiations can stop the sale and preserve home equity without court action, a limited approach can save time and costs.
