What Is a Sheriff’s Sale?
A sheriff’s sale is a public auction at which property that has been repossessed is sold by court order to compensate unpaid creditors. The proceeds of the auction are used to pay mortgage lenders, banks, tax collectors, and other litigants who have lost money on the property. Generally, a foreclosure auction is held when the property is being sold directly by a bank or other lender who has seized property for non-payment, while a sheriff’s sale is part of a court-ordered process to satisfy legal judgments against the former owner of the property.
Key Takeaways of a Sheriff’s Sale:
Auction Process: A sheriff’s sale auctions off defaulted or repossessed properties at the end of the foreclosure process.
Public Bidding: At the auction, members of the public may bid on the seized property, often sold in as-is condition.
Debt Repayment: Sale proceeds pay back mortgage lenders, banks, tax collectors, and other claimants.
Legal Satisfaction: A sheriff’s sale may occur to satisfy a court order on a lienholder.
How a Sheriff’s Sale Works
A sheriff’s sale auction occurs only after the lender has notified the borrower of default and has allowed for a grace period for the borrower to catch up on mortgage payments. The auction is designed for the lender to get repaid quickly for the loan that is then in default. These auctions often occur on a city’s courthouse steps, managed by the local law enforcement authorities, which is why they are called sheriff’s sales. The property is auctioned to the highest bidder at a publicly announced place, date, and time, with notices of each auction found in local newspapers and many online venues.
How Surplus Funds Arise After a Property Sale
Surplus funds arise when the sale price of a property exceeds the total amount owed on it, including outstanding mortgage balances, taxes, and foreclosure-related costs. This surplus is the leftover money that rightfully belongs to the former property owner. NEA’s expertise and dedicated approach ensure that homeowners can navigate the complexities of surplus fund recovery effectively, often leading to significant improvements in their financial well-being.
Claiming Surplus Funds After Foreclosure
Homeowners are entitled to claim surplus funds after a foreclosure auction. These funds belong to the former property owner once all debts related to the property have been paid off.
