Foreclosure Defense Lawyer in Jacksonville, FL
How Does Foreclosure Work in Florida?
In Florida, foreclosure is a legal process where a lender takes possession of property from the borrower and sells it to cover an unpaid debt.
- The process begins when the borrower defaults on the loan by missing multiple payments, and then the lender files for foreclosure with the court.
- The court will set a date for a hearing in which both parties must appear before presenting evidence on their respective positions.
- After reviewing all evidence, the court can order either reinstatement of payments or sale of property to satisfy any outstanding debts owed by the borrower.
- If sale is ordered, then it must be done through public auction where any interested party may make an offer to purchase.
- Finally, if no offers are made at auction or no one meets minimum bid requirement, then defaulting borrower may have right to reclaim ownership after settling remaining balance.
