How foreclosure sales work in Russell County
Alabama mortgage foreclosures are usually non-judicial. After the notice of sale runs in a local newspaper for three weeks, the property is auctioned at the main entrance of the Russell County courthouse, usually between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Many sales are postponed, so check the date right before the sale.
The winning bidder generally pays in certified funds on the sale day or shortly after, as the notice of sale states. The former owner can redeem for 180 days (homestead residence) or one year (other property) after the sale.
Our Alabama data comes from a foreclosing law firm's published sale list. It does not include every sale, so some sales in the county are not listed; more coming.
This is general information, not legal, financial or investment advice. Talk to an Alabama real-estate attorney before you bid.
