Most residential foreclosures in Alabama move forward outside of court under the power-of-sale language in a mortgage or deed of trust. Timing varies by loan and servicer, but the general stages below help Clarke County homeowners anticipate what often comes next.
After payments fall behind, the servicer may begin collection contact and send a notice of default.
Alabama law generally requires written notice before acceleration and sale. Exact terms depend on your loan documents.
A sale is typically advertised in a county newspaper of general circulation and posted as required by statute.
