Requirements to start a foreclosure statement

In order to start a foreclosure we will need information provided by you, the beneficiary, on our "begin a foreclosure page". This information will be used to draw a declaration of default and a notice of default, the starting point of any foreclosure. Based on the information you provide we will initiate the foreclosure process.

Requirements to start a foreclosure are as follows:

  1. Original Note
  2. Original Deed of Trust
  3. A deposit of $250.00
  4. Completed "begin a foreclosure" page

ONCE THIS FORECLOSURE IS OPENED, DO NOT ACCEPT ANY PAYMENT. PLEASE REFER THE PARTY BACK TO MID VALLEY TITLE AND ESCROW COMPANY.

THE BENEFICIARY UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT SHOULD CHANGES AND/OR ADDITIONS OCCUR IN THE ABOVE INFORMATION, OR IF FUTURE ADVANCES TO PROTECT THE SECURITY OF THE NOTE ARE MADE, MID VALLEY TITLE AND ESCROW COMPANY WILL BE NOTIFIED IMMEDIATELY.

Simply fill out and submit the “Begin a Foreclosure” form, and we’ll do the rest.
