Utah · Non-judicial state · Utah Code §§ 57-1-19 to 57-1-36

Utah makes them wait three months, then you have no way back.

A trustee sale with no lawsuit, but a real waiting period: the trustee cannot give notice of sale until at least three months after the notice of default is recorded, and you can catch up by paying what is due within those three months. After the sale there is no right to buy the home back, and the lender has three months to sue for any shortfall.

Anything else true

Three dates decide a Utah case. The notice of default, which starts a three month clock. The end of those three months, when your statutory right to cure ends and notice of sale can begin. And the sale itself, after which there is no redemption.

Where to get real help, free

Regional legal aid programmes take foreclosure cases at no cost if you qualify by income. Start at FloridaLawHelp.org, which routes you to the programme covering your county.

HUD-approved housing counsellors are free everywhere in the state — 1-800-569-4287. Several circuits also run residential foreclosure mediation; ask the clerk whether yours does.

Anyone who contacts you first, guarantees they can stop the sale for a fee paid up front, or asks you to sign the deed over is running a scam. Never sign a deed to someone promising to save your home.

Status of this page

Verified 8 September 2026 against the 2025 Florida Statutes and the Rules of Civil Procedure. That audit corrected ten items, including a dead citation for the deficiency limitation period, the wrong authority for the writ of possession, and a surplus claim deadline repealed in 2019. Statute text was verified; appellate case law was not, and two items — the paragraph 22 defence and current circuit mediation programmes — rest partly on secondary sources and should be confirmed by a Florida attorney before launch.

Questions people ask about Utah foreclosure

Short answers, each one sourced to the statute cited on this page.

How long does foreclosure take in Utah?

A typical Utah foreclosure runs roughly 286 days from the first missed payment to the trustee sale. The trustee cannot sell until a notice of default has been recorded and at least three months have passed. Utah Code 57-1-24.

Can I catch up on my Utah mortgage during foreclosure?

Yes. You may reinstate by paying everything past due plus costs and fees at any time within three months of the notice of default being recorded. Utah Code 57-1-31.

Is there redemption after a Utah trustee sale?

No. After a trustee sale there is no right of redemption, and the buyer may take possession after a notice to quit. Redemption of 180 days applies only after a judicial foreclosure. Utah Code 57-1-28 and 78B-6-906.

Can a Utah lender come after me for the shortfall?

Yes, but it must sue within three months after the sale, and the judgment cannot exceed the debt minus the property fair market value at the time of sale. Utah Code 57-1-32.

How long before Utah can sell my home for unpaid property taxes?

Four years. If the taxes are not redeemed by March 15 following four years of delinquency, the county files a tax sale listing, and you can redeem until the sale in May or June. Utah Code 59-2-1343.
