Non-Judicial Foreclosure Process

A non-judicial foreclosure is just a procedure of filing documents with the local county or state and does not go through courts. 360 Mortgage will call you to ask why you have defaulted in your payment in the first month during Non-Judicial Foreclosure. Your lender (360 Mortgage) will issue you a NOI if you miss your second payment. However, you will receive the Notice Of Default (NOD) when you have missed your third payment. At that time you can only work to clear your debt or else your loan will be accelerated. This is where we can step in and help you apply for mortgage assistance relief programs.

The non-judicial foreclosure begins when the Notice of Default is fired off by the trustee to the county recorder’s office. Once this is done, the foreclosure process is officially underway.

The NOD contains information such as the name and address of the borrower, lender and trustee. It also may contain the address of the mortgage property, a description of the defaulted amount (past due payments), the action that can be done in order to prevent foreclosure, the date which the house can be paid for or cured by the borrower and a statement that denotes that the house will go up for sale if the default is not cured.
