What is the foreclosure process in Suffolk County?

Massachusetts uses non-judicial foreclosure by power of sale. The lender sends a right-to-cure notice (150 days), then publishes auction notice for 3 consecutive weeks. No court involvement unless the homeowner files to contest. Source: MGL Ch. 244; Massachusetts Trial Court (mass.gov/courts).

Will selling stop foreclosure?

Yes — a completed sale satisfies the mortgage and ends foreclosure. Proceeds pay the outstanding balance. You keep remaining equity.

What if I owe more than the house is worth?

A short sale may be possible — the lender agrees to accept less than payoff. We have experience with short sales in Suffolk County and can help you explore options.

How Non-Judicial Foreclosure Works in Massachusetts

Per Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 244, Massachusetts allows foreclosure by power of sale without court involvement — one of the faster non-judicial processes in the Northeast:

Under Chapter 244, the lender sends a right-to-cure notice before acceleration or foreclosure.
Per Chapter 244's sale-notice provisions, the lender publishes notice before the auction.
Public auction is held at or near the property.
If no bidder meets the minimum, the lender takes title.

Massachusetts foreclosure timing varies by notice, cure, publication, contest, and lender schedule. According to MGL Chapter 244, the power-of-sale process includes right-to-cure and sale-notice requirements; many cases run several months before auction. A completed direct sale before the auction can pay off the mortgage, preserve remaining equity, and avoid a completed foreclosure sale record.
