A housing foreclosures usually means the owner of a home has defaulted on their mortgage or has gotten seriously behind and are unable to negotiate or workout a solution with the financiers (bank or lender). In this case the bank or lender may take legal action to repossess the home and sell it. All of this takes a lot of time (6 months to a year) and must be done through the local courts. If the owner cannot work something out with lender they will be required to surrender the property and move out or face eviction. It's a painful and humiliating process. Hope this helps.
