In almost all cases, you should receive a notice from the county sheriff's department at least a few days before the scheduled eviction. However, it is never a good idea to trust government bureaucrats to be efficient, as that is one thing they almost never are.

There are numerous other ways to find out how much time you have, other than trusting in someone from the sheriff to come and post a notice on the door.

First of all, you should know when the county foreclosure auction took place. That will give you a good idea of when your ownership interest in the property was transferred to the high bidder at the auction.

Then, you should look up the state foreclosure laws to determine how much time homeowners have to stay in the home after the sheriff sale. Some states allow for a redemption period where the foreclosure victims are given more time even after the sale in order to pay back the amount they owed on the house.

Redemption periods differ widely by state, with some having just a few weeks to others having up to a year after the foreclosure auction. Of course, other states do not have a redemption period at all. This is why it is essential to look up the state laws, so you do not move out the property too soon or too late.

But the court, after the sheriff sale is over, should send you a notice to appear for the eviction hearing. At this hearing, the bank will be given possession of the house and an order will be given to the county sheriff to evict the former homeowners. However, the most important reason to go to this hearing is simply to get more time to save the home or move out of the property.

The judge can grant you a few extra days or weeks to obtain a new apartment and begin moving out. This can't be done, though, if no one shows up for the hearing in the first place. The lender will just be given possession and the order will go out to the sheriff to evict as soon as possible.

When a house is sold in s take to evict t ita foreclosure auction how much time does it take to evict them?

According to answer.yahoo.com, "Once the new guy owns it you will be served an eviction notice that says you have three days to get out. If you ignore that (and if the new owner obeys the law) the new owner would need to go to the local Justice of Peace court and file for eviction. You will get a notice to appear. If you appear or if you don't you will lose because you have no right to be there anymore so you will get another notice- this time form the JP court. If you ignore that then a constable will show up to set your things out by the curb."

How long can you stay in your home after foreclosure?

Foreclosure and eviction laws vary from state to state, so the answer to this question might be different in each state. In you were in California and you were the borrow/owner, the new owner could serve you with a 3-Day Notice to Quit at any time after the foreclosure sale. If you did not voluntarily leave, then the new owner could file an eviction lawsuit against you and eventually have the local sheriff remove you involuntarily. This process could take up to a month, sometimes more. The laws of your state might be different.


Can an eviction notice simply be handed to a tenant without going through a court process?

This depends on the state in which you reside. And it depends on what you mean by an eviction notice. In most states, before an eviction can be filed in court, a notice has to be given to the tenant -- normally three to five days -- by hand, asking the tenant to pay his rent or to move. If the tenant doesn't pay his rent by that time then you may begin to file eviction proceedings. Once you do this, only the sheriff's office, Constable, etc. of your jurisdiction may serve an official notice, thereto known as a summons for eviction, to which the tenant must respond by following the instructions on the front page.

How soon after a foreclosure notice can your personal property be taken from you?

Personal property is not an issue in foreclosure proceedings. Perhaps you are confused about the definition of such. PP would be household furnishings, clothing, jewery, and so forth. As to the time limit when the persons living in the foreclosed residence, that often depends upon the terms of the mortgage agreement and/or state statutes where the property is located. In some cases it can be as little as 30 days from the time of the eviction service or as long as a year. The final eviction notice will contain the exact date the property is to be vacated. If the order is not followed an officer of the court (usually a sheriff deputy) will remove the occupants in whatever manner is required.


Is an eviction notice with white out on it legal?

An eviction notice need only be served. If there is white out on it, that may mean it was tampered with. The landlord can testify that he made a mistake and whited it out himself, which would cause the notice to stand.The only time something may be held unenforceable by reason of tampering or alteration is a mutual contract. An eviction notice is not a contract as much as it's a formal notice for you to leave.
