Ohio foreclosures are judicial, meaning the lender must file a lawsuit in the county court and obtain a judgment before a sheriff's sale can be scheduled. This process provides homeowners with formal opportunities to respond, negotiate, and pursue loss mitigation.
The lender files a lawsuit against the homeowner in the Preble County Court of Common Pleas and you must respond within a set period.
If the court rules in the lender's favor, it issues a judgment that leads to an order scheduling the property for sheriff's sale.
A public auction is held, typically after required publication and notice periods, in the county where the property is located.
A brief redemption period may be available after the sale, depending on the circumstances of your case.
