my home in California is being auctioned and a foreclosure sale. They did post the notice on my door in the time required. I’m not sure if they did it in the newspaper I do have do not have access to it. However, I didn’t receive the mailing within the 20 day requirement. It came one day late. Can that affect the sale and foreclosure?
Hello Robert, in California, the law states:
- A Notice of Sale must be mailed at least 20 days before the sale.
- If this notice was not received within the required timeframe, it could potentially affect the validity of the foreclosure.
I recommend seeking legal advice for your situation.
so it must be mailed within 20 days or is it I must receive it at least 20 days before sale.
Hello Robert, in California, the law mandates that the Notice of Sale must be mailed at least 20 days before the sale, not necessarily received by you within that period. Please consult a local attorney to discuss further.
OK thank you.
