How are District of Columbia mortgages foreclosed?

0

The primary method of foreclosure in District of Columbia involves what is known asnon-judicial foreclosure. This type of foreclosure does not involve court action but requires notice commonly callednotice of sale. When thedeed of trust is initially signed, it will usually contain a provision called apower of sale clause, which upon default allows atrustee to sell the property in order to satisfy the underlying defaulted loan. Because this is a non-judicial remedy, there are very stringent notice requirements and the legal documents are required to contain thepower of sale language in order to use this type of foreclosure method.
