First, confirm the actual date using the listings link above; sales are frequently adjourned, and the notice you received may no longer be current.
Second, know your adjournment rights.New Jersey homeowners are generally entitled to request two adjournments of the sale, each up to 30 days, through the sheriff's office, and courts can grant more in the right circumstances. Used well, that time is enough to close a sale of the home, finish a reinstatement, or get a Chapter 13 filed.
Third, use the time on an actual plan. A postponed auction with no plan is just a later auction. Our free assessment sorts out which of the seven options still fit at your stage, and the timeline tool shows where you are in the process.
Where does Passaic County list sheriff sales?
Passaic County publishes foreclosure sheriff sale listings through the state's CivilView system, where you can search upcoming sales by address or defendant name and see scheduled dates and status.
Can a sheriff sale in Passaic County be postponed?
Generally yes. New Jersey law entitles a homeowner to request adjournments of a scheduled sheriff sale, typically two adjournments of up to 30 days each, and a court can order further postponements. Requests go through the sheriff's office, and there is usually a small fee. Speak with a licensed New Jersey attorney about your specific case.
Does a scheduled sale mean I have lost the house?
No. Until the sale actually happens (and through New Jersey's 10-day objection period after it), options can remain: reinstating the loan, completing a sale of the home, or the automatic stay from a Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing. Which ones are realistic depends on timing, so acting before the sale date matters more than anything else.
