The lender will begin the process to take possession of the property by foreclosure.

No. A stop payment can be issued only before the check payment is made by the bank. If you try a stop payment after the bank has paid for the check, the bank wont accept it because the stop payment instruction is useless now and cannot be executed.
if you stop payment because the funds are not available then yes it is.
YES, making the down payment is part of the contract and you are in default on it.
It Depends: Yes - If you gave the check to someone to who you owned some money and need to pay that person for the service he provided you. Since a stop payment results in no-payment the person who got the check can get you arrested No - If the check was lost or stolen. You can always issue a stop payment to ensure that even if the check is misused by anyone to whom you did not intend to give it, the bank won't pay the check.
One payment may not be enough to stop the progress of the repossession proceedings. You need to communicate with the mortgage company and arrange to make regular payments.
Stop payment throught credit card
THis ain't no question.... why would you stop payment on a check anyway
Yes. It is perfectly legal for the person who issued the check to put a stop payment on it. However, if the check was issued to pay for some goods or services offered by someone or for a loan, the receiving entity also has a legal claim and hence can file a police complaint against you for not making the payment. So, you need to talk to the person to whom you gave the check to settle the amount amicably before you issue the stop payment.
