Notice of Default (NOD)

During foreclosure process NOD(notice of default) is the first document to be filled. In the state of California, a lender can only file a Notice of Default once the borrower is 90 days behind. The NOD(notice of default) contains information such as the name and address of the lender, borrower, and trustee. It also contains the address of the mortgaged 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.

Notice of Trustee Sale (NTS/NOTS)

The trustee will place a notice in front of the house stating that it will be sold in auction. It is done to alert the public that homeowner is in default on the loan. The trustee will also have to place a notice in the local newspaper or publication. The homeowner may receive a notice of sale, a notice of default that is followed by a notice of sale or even see the notice by publication.

Once that has been accomplished, then a date and time are set and your house will be sold to the highest bidder.
