How this sale works

Sheriff's foreclosure sale

A court-ordered auction, usually to satisfy a mortgage or other judgment. The plaintiff is the creditor that won the judgment; the defendant is the owner of record.

• The opening bid is commonly the judgment amount plus costs, set by the court file, not by the seller.
• Sales are typically held in person at a courthouse or sheriff's office on the scheduled date; some counties run them online.
• Expect to pay a deposit at the sale and the balance within days, and to take the property as-is with no interior inspection.
• Senior liens, taxes and occupants can survive the sale; a title search before bidding is the norm.
• In several states the borrower keeps a redemption right after the sale, which can delay possession.
