How foreclosure works in California

  • ✓California foreclosures are typically non-judicial (handled through a trustee under a deed of trust's power of sale, not a court).
  • ✓The process usually starts with a recorded Notice of Default, followed by a Notice of Sale.
  • ✓You can generally sell the home any time before the trustee's sale is completed.

This reflects the general California process as of 2026-07 and is not legal advice — confirm the specifics of your situation with a qualified attorney.
