Stop Foreclosure in Colorado

How Bankruptcy Can Stop Foreclosure

Filing a bankruptcy case triggers the automatic stay, a federal court order that generally stops foreclosure proceedings immediately.

Depending on your financial situation:

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy may allow you to:

• Stop a scheduled foreclosure sale

• Catch up on missed mortgage payments over time

• Maintain ownership while restructuring other debts

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy may:

• Temporarily stop foreclosure

• Provide time to evaluate long term solutions

• Eliminate unsecured debts that are contributing to default

The right strategy depends on income, equity, loan status, and long term goals.

Understanding Colorado Foreclosure Timing

Colorado uses a statutory foreclosure process with defined notice requirements and sale procedures. Waiting too long can eliminate options that were previously available.

Early consultation allows you to evaluate:

• Whether a foreclosure sale is scheduled

• Whether Chapter 13 is feasible

• Whether alternative solutions are appropriate

• Whether immediate filing is advisable

Timing is Critical

Stopping foreclosure is often possible, but it requires careful planning and prompt action.
