A lender will typically initiate the foreclosure action when a borrower has defaulted on a loan after a certain amount of time, as specified in the mortgage documents. Very specific and detailed statutory procedural requirements apply to foreclosures and must be complied with to avoid any invalidation of a foreclosure sale.

All of the necessary steps in the foreclosure process constitute the foreclosure action.
