Frequently Asked Questions
What is the foreclosure timeline in New Jersey?
In New Jersey, the foreclosure process typically takes 6 to 12 months from the initial filing to the sheriff sale. The lender must first serve a notice of intention to foreclose at least 30 days before filing the complaint. After the court enters a final judgment, the sheriff sale is scheduled at least 21 days later.
Can I stop a foreclosure in East Hanover after the sheriff sale?
Stopping a foreclosure after the sheriff sale is very difficult in New Jersey. You may have a limited right to redeem the property within 10 days of the sale by paying the full amount owed. It is critical to act before the sale date to preserve your options.
What legal defenses can I raise against foreclosure in New Jersey?
Common defenses include challenging the lenders standing to foreclose, proving improper notice, or showing violations of the Fair Foreclosure Act. You may also raise issues like predatory lending or failure to consider a loan modification application. An attorney can help identify valid defenses specific to your case.
