Posted by Ward-CA- on November 07, 2001 at 10:48 PM In Reply to: Amount of time to buy before foreclosure posted by Chris OH on November 07, 2001 at 8:20 PM : : Ward, : I have an opportunity to purchase a foreclosure that goes for sherriff's auction in 8 days. I understand the law in the state of California states that offers on properties must be signed 5 business days prior to the sherriff's auction. Do you know what the law is in the state of Ohio? Secondly, what can we do to help the seller "stay" the foreclosure? I understand they can stay the foreclosure for 30 days by filing for chapter 13. Do they have to carry out the chapter 13 proceedings, or can they just file for it to buy some time, sell the property to somebody like me, the reneg on their ch 13 filing? : Short on time =•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•=•= Chris, the fine details of Ohio foreclosure law are still to mastered by us. Anyone who properly files an emergency petition in Chapter 13 in federal bankruptcy court will get an automatic stay of their foreclosure, no matter what their situation or state of residency. It’s just sitting there for the asking. That’s because there’s no qualifying for the automatic stay until AFTER you have submitted the entire filing. If the balance of the filing is NOT submitted to the intake clerk within 15 days of filing the first six pages, then the whole application is automatically discharged without further ado by the court. If someone doesn’t need any more time than an extra 30 days at the end of their foreclosure process to cure their foreclosure situation, then this is the ticket them. All that’s required is the filing fee (now it’s $185) in cash or money order form, and the six pages that make up the initial filing package. The reason you can finagle an extra 30 days more at the end, is that the attorney for the lender can’t get a hearing from the bankruptcy court to set aside your automatic stay for at least 30 days after they have asked for it. Because of that fact, the foreclosure processor will postpone the stalled foreclosure sale for 30 days, hoping the attorney will get the required relief from stay at that first 30 day mark. Before that day arrives though, you or your buyer for the property, will have acquired title and will have paid all the back payments, thus canceling the foreclosure altogether. Hope this helps.
