If you’ve gotten a foreclosure notice of default and want to know what the heck is going on, keep reading.

Basically, a foreclosure notice of default is a document that has to be filed by a lender to start the process of foreclosure.

The foreclosure notice of default must be sent to anyone who has an interest in the property (any other loans, lenders, or even contractors who are owed money for work done to a property will get a copy).

The foreclosure notice of default must also be published in a newspaper and physically posted in a prominent place on the property itself.  This is the reason that you may begin to get a lot of phone calls and letters from other investors when this happens.
