Use these Indiana foreclosure procedures to avoid or stop

Burns' Indiana Statutes Annotated, Sections 32-8-16-1, 32-8-17-1, 34-1-39-4 et seq., 34-2-29-3
The Process
In Indiana, a lender can file a lawsuit to foreclose on real estate. The date the mortgage was signed determines the length of time it takes between the filing of the lawsuit and the foreclosure sale. Here are the applicable waiting periods:
Before January 1, 1958: 12 months
Between January 1, 1958 - July 1,1975: 6 months
After July 1, 1975: 3 months
Procedure
If the owner files a waiver of the time limit with the court clerk, which has been signed by the lender (or judgment holder), then the foreclosure sale process may begin without the need to delay 3 to 12 months. If such a waiver is used however, the lender loses the right to sue the borrower for a deficiency.
The foreclosure sale process involves publishing an ad once a week for three weeks. The first ad must be run 30 days before the sale. At the time the first ad is run, each owner must be served with notice of the foreclosure sale by the sheriff. The sheriff conveys title by a deed given immediately after the sale. The owner may reside in the property, rent free, until the foreclosure sale, provided the owner is no) committing waste, which means tearing up the property.
Redemption
There is no right to redemption after the foreclosure sale. The waiting precedes the sale. If the property is not a principal residence, a receiver can be appointed to take charge of it.
