Do not fill this in! ===Strict=== Other types of foreclosure are considered minor because of their limited availability. Under ''strict foreclosure'', which is available in a few states including Connecticut, New Hampshire and Vermont, if the mortgagee wins the court case, the court orders the defaulted mortgagor to pay the mortgage within a specified period of time. Should the mortgagor fail to do so, the mortgage holder gains the title to the property with no obligation to sell it. This type of foreclosure is generally available only when the value of the property is less than the debt ("[[Under water (loan)|under water]]"). Historically, strict foreclosure was the original method of foreclosure. Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
