What is the right of redemption in New Mexico?
In New Mexico, after a foreclosure sale, the homeowner has a statutory right of redemption. This allows you to reclaim the property by paying the full sale price plus costs within one month if the property is under 4 acres, or within 9 months for larger properties.
