Can A House Be Sold While In Foreclosure Without Going To Short Sale?

Your house can be sold while in foreclosure without going to sheriff sale.

Recently past client’s of mine came in to my office.  They received notification from their bank that the home was sold and they need to get out of the house.  They had been behind on their mortgage payments and had attempted to work out a modification but it was not successful.  Their house was located in Atlantic County in southern NJ.

Normally, in our county the foreclosures run through the sheriff’s office and usually the owner of the house is notified of the sale and can even postpone the sale for at least a month.  However in this case the house was sold to an investor and the deed was recorded with the county clerks office.  I advised that my client’s seek legal advice since there was little I could do to help at this point.

If you or someone you know is facing foreclosure contact me immediately.  I’m here to help home owners keep their home when possible or avoid foreclosure through a short sale.  Contact me for a private complementary consultation.
