Elkhart, IN › Foreclosure
Our agreement of sale will often get a sheriff's sale postponed so we can close. Signing alone doesn't postpone it automatically; we use the agreement to ask for the postponement, and it works more often than people think.
Yes. Indiana mortgage foreclosures go through court. You may still be able to sell before the sheriff's sale if the sale can close and resolve the debt in time. Check the actual payoff, title details, court status, and sale date promptly. Before the sale, an owner may redeem the property by paying the full judgment, interest, and costs through the clerk or sheriff, depending on the stage of the case. Paying only overdue installments is not the same thing. See Indiana Code §32-29-7-7. Selling before foreclosure may help protect any equity you have.

Indiana mortgage foreclosure goes through court. Before the sheriff's sale, redemption means paying the full judgment, interest, and costs through the clerk or sheriff, depending on the case stage. Paying only overdue installments is not enough. The current case papers and sale date matter.
Read the state rule in Indiana Code §32-29-7-7.
A county tax sale concerns delinquent property taxes; it is separate from a mortgage foreclosure over a home loan. It has its own notice, date, and next steps. Do not use a mortgage-sale date, postponement, or redemption rule to work out a tax-sale deadline. Follow the tax-sale notice and confirm the current status with the office named on it.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before.
Ask the lender for a current payoff. The title company can review the payoff and title details for the property before closing; a lender decides whether to change its own payoff.
Call or use the form with the Elkhart address and the notice or sale date you have. Start with what you know; you do not need every payoff figure before contacting us.
We review the property as it stands and give you written offer terms before you decide whether to proceed.
If you choose to move forward, the title company reviews title and works through current payoff details with the lender or other creditor.
We use the agreement to ask for a sheriff's-sale postponement. Confirm the current case status and any date change with the court or sheriff handling the case before relying on it.
The title company prepares the closing once the title, payoff, timing, and written terms are ready for the transaction.
It's real estate. Sometimes there are bumps in the road. We won't disappear when that happens, and we'll be fighting to get this to the closing table.

No. A county tax sale over delinquent property taxes is a separate process from a lender’s mortgage foreclosure through court. Each notice has its own date and next steps. A mortgage-sale postponement or redemption rule does not set a tax-sale deadline; follow the tax-sale notice and confirm it with the office named there.
Think the payoff is more than the house is worth? Ask us — we've gotten lenders to come down before. Get the current payoff checked against the title and sale details for the property; any lender decision is specific to that loan and case.
