You Have More Power Than You Think

The Importance of Understanding California Homeowner Rights

When you’re behind on mortgage payments or facing foreclosure, it’s easy to feel powerless—but you’re not. In California, the law gives homeowners real protections. The problem? Most people don’t know about them, and lenders aren’t likely to explain.

That’s why understanding your rights is one of the most important steps you can take. It can buy you more time, stop a sale, protect your equity, and help you stay in control of what happens next. Whether you want to keep your home or need help selling, knowing what you’re entitled to under California law could make all the difference.

Don’t rely on your lender to tell you what’s possible. Get the facts. Get support. And take back control of your options.

Legal Protections Most Homeowners Miss

California Homeowner Foreclosure Rights

If you’re a California homeowner facing foreclosure, two major laws can work in your favor: the California Homeowner Bill of Rights and AB 2424. Together, they were created to protect people like you from being rushed, misled, or treated unfairly during the foreclosure process.

The Homeowner Bill of Rights gives you critical protections when dealing with your lender. AB 2424 builds on that foundation, offering new ways to pause foreclosure, get more time, and ensure your home is sold for fair value if selling becomes the best option.

Some of these protections include:

  • Your lender must contact you to discuss options before starting foreclosure
  • You can’t be foreclosed on while your loan modification is under review
  • If your modification is denied, you have the right to a clear explanation—and a chance to appeal
  • You may qualify for extra time to sell your home before it goes to auction
  • You’re allowed to get help from foreclosure experts like attorneys or realtors without interference from your lender

And that’s just the beginning. These laws offer even more rights depending on your situation—and KeepMyHouse is here to help you understand and use them to your advantage.

“I had a homeowner in full panic mode, facing foreclosure in just 30 days. They were overwhelmed by notices and didn’t know where to turn, and as their agent, I felt the pressure too—I wanted to protect them but needed the right support. KeepMyHouse stepped in immediately and walked us both through every option available. They explained the process clearly, answered questions I couldn’t, and secured a postponement that gave us valuable breathing room. With that extra time, we were able to regroup, create a stronger strategy, and keep the client in control of their choices. “

What California Homeowners Ask Us Most

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I call a realtor if I’m in foreclosure?
You can—but not just any realtor will do. Work with someone who understands foreclosure timelines and California law, or reach out to KeepMyHouse first to explore all your options before listing.
How do I stop foreclosure?
You may be able to stop or delay foreclosure through a loan modification, legal protections, or by selling before the auction. California laws give you more rights than most lenders explain—KeepMyHouse can help you understand and use these to your advantage.
What is the foreclosure process in California?
California uses a nonjudicial foreclosure process that starts with a Notice of Default and can lead to a trustee sale in as little as 120 days. There are multiple points along the way where you can pause or stop the process with the right strategy.
How much time do I have before foreclosure?
Once a Notice of Default is filed, you typically have at least 90 days before a sale can be scheduled—and another 21 days’ notice before the auction. That said, the sooner you act, the more foreclosure solutions in California become available to you.
Is listing or selling my California home fast an option if I’m in foreclosure?
Yes Listing your home with an experienced foreclosure realtor team or, selling quickly is often one of the most effective ways to avoid foreclosure—especially if you have equity or qualify for protections under AB 2424. KeepMyHouse can help you connect with our experienced realtor team at Equity Shield or our investment group Sector Capital and close fast while protecting your rights and avoiding auction.
