If your home is foreclosed through a forced sale, it is auctioned at a public sale usually held on the steps of the county courthouse. One of two things will occur at this auction; either a bidder will win the auction and become the new owner, or there will be no bids and the ownership of the home will revert to the lender.

The next step in the process is the same regardless of who now owns the home, but if it reverted to a lender it may take longer. The next step is to negotiate with the tenant to leave the home. This can be anything from voluntary vacating, to a cash-for-keys deal where a cash payment is exchanged for leaving the home in good condition by a certain date, or it can be an eviction.

Eviction is a time and resource consuming process and can get quite messy for both sides. It begins with a Notice to Quit the premises and can lead to an Unlawful Detainer lawsuit with the tenant becoming liable for costs and rents.

A cash-for-keys arrangement is usually the most amicable and mutually beneficial route. The amount of the cash is negotiable, but many homeowners end up with $1,500-$4,000 depending on the property and the cost of rent in the area.

What happens when your car gets repossessed in the state of New Jersey?

You lose the car ... simple ... it is returned to the company that lent you the money to purchase it ... it then gets cleaned up and at the option of the lender either gets sold to someone else or it gets auctioned off. This is their right to do this - they own the car, not you ... if you don't have the clear title in your hands, you don't own it. If the car is sold for less than what you owe, the lending company can sue you for the balance.
