If you find yourself headed towards foreclosure and you have no means of making your payments – it is advisable that you take a good look at the foreclosure laws in your state.

The differences in the foreclosure laws vary in a variety of ways such as lender notices, buyback periods, and even the scheduling and bank notices issued regarding the auctioning of the property. Because the foreclosure timeline is complicated the goal of this article is to give you a basic understanding.

Your first time missing a mortgage payment, your lender will contact you by phone in some cases they will even contact you by mail and a late charge will be added on. A late fee isn’t normally added until after the 15th day. Most lenders will work with you if you give them a call in advanced and let them know that you are going to be a little late.

If you miss your 2nd mortgage payment, the mortgage company will normally call you to inquire why a payment hasn’t been made. It is crucial that you open the lines of communications with the lender at this point. The lender is more likely to work something out with you if you explain your situation.

Once you begin communicating with the lender one of your main goals besides the obvious (keep them from starting the foreclosure proceedings) is to keep them from putting a 30 day late payment on your credit report. This process will damage your future negotiation process severely.

Even if your property has been sold you still have what is known as a redemption period. You can reclaim your property by paying the full outstanding mortgage balance and all costs incurred during the foreclosure process. This is the only way that you will stand a chance at getting your home back. Also keep in mind that that the availability of this process is determined by whether the foreclosure is judicial or non-judicial and procedures can vary from state to state.
