Best Answer

In a judicial foreclosure state the answer as always is it depends. However, in general terms a traditional lender, bank/mortgage company, will wait approximately 90 days after the last regular payment before they put the loan in a litigation posture. After the 90 days they will usually ship the "file" to a foreclosure attorney to start the litigation process also known as the foreclosure. Depending upon the case load of that particular law firm you should expect to see a summons or complaint, which is the start of the lawsuit between 14 and 30 days. These time tables are only general observations but should give you a conservative estimate.
