Yes. There are generally 3 ways to halt or postpone the sale:
1) File bankruptcy
2) Negotiate with the lender for a postponement. This is usually done to allow time to work on a loan modification.
3) Take legal action against the lender. If you have legal basis, you may file suit or complaint against the lender for fraud, breach of contract or procedural errors that would cause the sale to be postponed.
Remember that unless you will ultimately be able to afford the home, these are merely going to postpone the inevitable. If you are trying to buy time in the home these methods may work, but may further damage your credit (additional late payments reporting). There have been cases where borrowers negotiated with their lender for postponements repeatedly and successfully for over a year, sometimes 2 or more.
