Foreclosure FAQs for Connecticut Homeowners

Clear, straightforward answers to the questions we hear most — plus guidance on where to get legal and financial help.

Overview of the Foreclosure Process in Connecticut

Connecticut is a judicial foreclosure state, which means foreclosures go through the court system rather than being handled entirely outside of court. The process generally involves:

  • The lender filing a foreclosure lawsuit
  • The homeowner being served and given an opportunity to respond
  • Court hearings and potential mediation
  • Either a resolution (such as loan modification or repayment plan) or a foreclosure judgment and sale date

Throughout this process, many homeowners still have options to restructure their loan, sell the property, or pursue other loss-mitigation programs.

This is general information only and not legal advice. Always consult a qualified attorney about your specific case.
