Facing foreclosure in Auburn? Start here.
King County is Washington's largest and most competitive market, so equity tends to be high — which means selling before the sale can protect real money. Whatever stage you're at — a few payments behind, a Notice of Default, or a scheduled trustee's sale — we can help you understand exactly where you stand and what to do next.
How foreclosure works for Auburn homeowners
Like the rest of Washington, Auburn foreclosures are handled non-judicially under the state Deed of Trust Act — through a trustee, without a court case. The lender records a Notice of Trustee's Sale with the King County Recorder's Office in Seattle, and by law the sale can't happen sooner than 120 days after that notice. Sales for King County homes are typically held at the King County Administration Building / 4th Ave entrance in downtown Seattle.
The most important deadline: you can usually reinstate your loan (pay what's past due plus costs) up to 11 days before the sale — and you can sell right up until the sale itself. That's why Auburn homeowners who act early keep the most options.

Auburn foreclosure questions
Can I sell my house fast in Auburn if I'm facing foreclosure?
Yes. In Washington your right to sell lasts until the trustee's sale itself, so Auburn homeowners can sell — to a cash buyer or on the market — any time before that date. A cash sale can often close in days, before your sale date, so you protect your credit and equity.
How long do I have before a foreclosure sale in Auburn?
Washington is a non-judicial foreclosure state. After you're 120+ days behind, the lender records a Notice of Trustee's Sale, and by law the sale can't be held sooner than 120 days after that. So Auburn homeowners typically have several months to act — but the sooner the better.
Where is the foreclosure auction held for Auburn homes?
Auburn is in King County, so trustee's sales for local homes are generally held at the King County Administration Building / 4th Ave entrance in downtown Seattle, and the notices are recorded with the King County Recorder's Office in Seattle.
Do you charge Auburn homeowners any fees?
Never. Our help is free, and if you sell to us there are no commissions, no closing costs, and no repairs — we buy as-is. Anyone asking for money upfront to stop a foreclosure is a scam.
