Hello, my name is Donald Iwuchukwu, and I am an attorney practicing law in California. With nearly two decades of experience in estate planning and probate, I’ve had the privilege of helping many families navigate this often complex process. Today, I am here to answer the most popular questions about foreclosure in California.
What is the new foreclosure law in California?
The new foreclosure law in California, SB 1079, aims to reduce the impact of foreclosures on communities. It allows tenants, families, and nonprofit organizations to bid on foreclosed properties before investors, giving them a better chance to keep homes occupied and in good condition.
​
How to stop foreclosure in California?
To stop foreclosure in California, you can:
-
Negotiate with Your Lender: Request a loan modification or repayment plan.
-
Refinance Your Loan: Obtain a new loan with better terms.
-
File for Bankruptcy: This can temporarily halt foreclosure proceedings.
-
Sell Your Home: Use the proceeds to pay off the mortgage.
-
Seek Legal Assistance: An attorney can help you explore all available options and develop a strategy to stop the foreclosure.
​
How long does a foreclosure take in California?
In California, the foreclosure process typically takes about 120 days from the first missed payment to the sale of the property. This can vary depending on the specific circumstances and whether the homeowner is able to negotiate with the lender.
​
What is the redemption period for foreclosure in California?
California does not have a statutory right of redemption for foreclosures on residential properties, meaning once the foreclosure sale is complete, the previous homeowner cannot reclaim the property by paying off the debt.
​
What is the 37-day foreclosure rule?
The 37-day foreclosure rule in California refers to the notice period. Once a lender files a Notice of Default, the borrower has 30 days to request a meeting with the lender, and the lender must respond within 37 days. This meeting is intended to discuss alternatives to foreclosure.
​
How long do you have to move out after foreclosure in California?
After a foreclosure sale in California, the new owner must give the former occupants a 3-day notice to quit. If the occupants do not leave within this period, the new owner can begin eviction proceedings, which can take an additional 30 to 45 days.
​
Can a foreclosure sale be reversed in California?
Yes, a foreclosure sale can be reversed in California if it is found that the foreclosure was conducted improperly or unlawfully. This can be pursued through a legal action known as a wrongful foreclosure lawsuit.
​
How long does a mortgage redemption last?
In California, there is no mortgage redemption period for residential properties after the foreclosure sale. Once the property is sold, the former owner cannot reclaim it by paying off the debt.
​
What is the right of redemption at the tax sale in California?
In California, property owners have a one-year right of redemption after a tax sale. This means they can reclaim their property within one year by paying the delinquent taxes, interest, and any associated fees.
​
What are the statutory rights of redemption?
Statutory rights of redemption allow a homeowner to reclaim their foreclosed property by paying the full amount of the unpaid mortgage plus any additional fees and interest within a specified period. However, in California, this right is not available for most residential foreclosures. The redemption period typically applies to tax sales rather than mortgage foreclosures.
