America's Foreclosure Epidemic
Foreclosure Laws and Procedures
By State
The foreclosure process varies somewhat from state
to state, and depends primarily on whether the state uses mortgages or deeds
of trust for the purchase of real property. Generally, states which use
mortgages conduct judicial foreclosures; states that use deeds of trust
conduct non-judicial foreclosures. The principal difference between the two
is that the judicial procedure requires court action on a foreclosed home.
The table below (provided by
RealtyTrac.com
) represents our current knowledge of which states use mortgages (judicial)
or deeds of trust (non-judicial) or both, as well as helpful information
regarding foreclosure procedures particular to each state. Go to
www.RealtyTrac.com for complete information for individual states.
Please check with your local county
office to verify the accuracy of this information.
