What is a foreclosure? Foreclosure is the legal process by which a bank seeks to recover the amount owed on a mortgage typically due to default. There are several stages in the foreclosure process:
Pre-Foreclosure / Short Sale: Basically, when the proceeds of a home "fall short" of what is still owed on a mortgage. During this time, the owner may possibly have the option to sell to a third party for less than what is owed on the mortgage and the bank may potentially avoid a costly and lengthy foreclosure process by accepting this lesser amount.
Auction: If the property is not sold during the pre-foreclosure period (if there is one), a public auction is then typically held to sell the property to the highest bidder. Foreclosure sales may include a minimum bid amount along with accrued interest, attorney fees and possibly other foreclosure fees. Typically, the property is purchased "as-is."
Bank-Owned / REO (Real Estate Owned): If the property fails to sell in the pre-foreclosure stage or at auction, ownership reverts back to the lender.
For more information on the legal aspects of the foreclosure process, contact your state attorney general's office.
