Foreclosure is a legal process where a lender takes possession of your property if you default on a loan. The lender then sells the property to recover the unpaid debts. This process allows the lender to recoup their losses from the defaulted loan. Foreclosure can be judicial or non-judicial, depending on state laws, and typically involves several steps, including notices and a public auction.
