Question Details:How many months could I occupy my residence before the sheriff comes to lock me out? How long could I prolong the foreclosure process if I use all available legal remedies?
I am a lawyer in CT and practice in this area of the law. With a lawyer or knowing the system you could probably string the process along for 10 months of so. I just got done with a case that I kept it open for 1 year and my client finally came up with the money to get back on track paying the mortgage. You should hire a lawyer to help you. Otherwise, you can expect to be out in 5 months.
