The certified letter felt heavy in Karen Mitchell’s hands. She’d been avoiding the mailbox for weeks, knowing what was coming. When she finally tore open the envelope, the words “Notice of Default” jumped off the page like an accusation.
Four months behind on her mortgage. Pre-foreclosure proceedings initiated. Auction date set for 110 days from now.
Karen’s hands shook as she read the legal language. After 12 years in her Littleton home, raising her kids in those bedrooms, building memories in that backyard – it felt like the final chapter of a story that could only end badly.
“I thought it was over,” Karen remembers, tears still in her eyes. “I thought pre-foreclosure meant I’d already lost everything.”
But Karen was wrong. And if you’re reading this with a foreclosure notice in your hand and fear in your heart, you need to know something crucial: Pre-foreclosure isn’t the end. It’s actually your window of opportunity – and we’re here to help you through it.
You’re Not Alone, and This Isn’t Over
First, take a breath. Right now, in Colorado and across the country, thousands of families are receiving the same notice you got. Good people who worked hard, paid their bills, and got hit by circumstances beyond their control:
- Job loss that lasted longer than savings
- Medical emergencies that drained bank accounts
- Divorce that split one household income into two households
- Business failures that seemed impossible to predict
- Simply falling behind and never quite catching up
None of this makes you a failure. It makes you human.
And here’s what the banks don’t tell you in those scary legal letters: You still have power. You still have options. You still have time. And most importantly, you have us.
Understanding Pre-Foreclosure: Your Timeline
That foreclosure notice feels like a death sentence, but it’s actually a timeline – and timelines can be changed.
Here’s what’s really happening in Colorado:
Month 1 (You Are Here): Notice of Default filed. You have 110-125 days before any auction can occur.
Month 2-3: This is your power window. You have maximum options and leverage right now.
Month 4: Notice of Sale posted. Auction scheduled. Options decrease but still exist.
Day Before Auction: You still have rights. Colorado law gives you until 12:00 PM the day before auction to cure the default.
The Critical Truth: Everything you’ve read so far makes it sound like you have months to figure this out. You don’t. Every day that passes, your options decrease and your stress increases.
But today, right now, you have the power to change this story completely.
Why Traditional Options Usually Fail Families in Pre-Foreclosure
Most homeowners facing foreclosure waste precious time pursuing options that sound good but rarely work:
The Loan Modification Trap
Your lender might mention loan modifications. Here’s what they won’t tell you:
- Approval rates for homeowners in default: Under 25%
- Average processing time: 3-6 months (often longer than your foreclosure timeline)
- Even if approved, many modifications only delay the inevitable
- You’ll spend your emergency funds making partial payments while waiting for approval that may never come
James Rodriguez in Aurora spent four months chasing a loan modification. When Chase finally denied him, he had three weeks until auction and zero savings left. “They strung me along until I had no other options,” James explains.
The “Catch Up Payment” Fantasy
Your lender might suggest you can stop foreclosure by catching up on missed payments plus fees. The math rarely works:
Typical catch-up requirement:
- 4 missed payments: $11,200
- Late fees and charges: $800
- Legal fees: $2,500-5,000
- Total needed: $14,500-16,700
If you had $15,000 sitting around, you wouldn’t be in foreclosure.
The Short Sale Disappointment
Real estate agents love suggesting short sales. Here’s the reality:
- Average short sale timeline: 4-8 months
- Your foreclosure auction: 110 days away
- Bank approval rate: Unpredictable
- You continue paying carrying costs during the entire process
- Even if approved, many banks pursue deficiency judgments
You don’t have time for short sale maybe’s. You need definite solutions now.

Your Equity Still Has Value
Here’s what many homeowners don’t realize: Even in pre-foreclosure, your equity has value. That Notice of Default doesn’t erase what you’ve built.
Your equity represents:
- Your down payment
- Years of mortgage payments
- Property appreciation
- Your family’s financial future
We help you protect and access that equity before foreclosure erases it.
At auction, your equity disappears. The bank gets the house, often sells it for less than it’s worth, and you get nothing – plus foreclosure on your credit for seven years.
But if you act now, that equity becomes your bridge to a better future.
