Sell your foreclosure Fresno house for cash — we buy direct

When the foreclosure clock is running, the timeline matters as much as the offer. We work in pre-foreclosure routinely and can move on tight schedules — sometimes closing in a week if the title and lien situation cooperates. The goal is a sale that pays off the loan, avoids a foreclosure on your credit, and leaves you with any remaining equity in your pocket.

Lockwood Home Buyers makes cash offers directly to homeowners — no fees, no commissions, and no obligation to accept. We are not a real-estate agent or broker; we buy houses for cash.

How the California timeline works

California is a non-judicial state: a recorded notice of default starts a 90-day clock, then a 21-day notice of trustee sale — roughly four months minimum from default to auction. The dates are statutory, so the window to sell is predictable but finite.

California sales close through escrow companies; a clean cash escrow commonly runs two weeks or less.
