Homeowners are generally entitled to request two adjournments of a scheduled sale, each up to 30 days, through the county sheriff’s office, usually for a small fee and without a lawyer. Further postponements generally require a court order, which judges grant for good cause.
Not for the two statutory adjournments; the request goes to the sheriff’s office. Never pay a third party to "get your sale postponed." Beyond those two, a court order is generally needed, and free legal help is available from Legal Services of New Jersey (1-888-576-5529) for income-qualifying homeowners.
Not automatically. Ask your servicer in writing to postpone the sale while the review is pending, get a written reinstatement quote, and use your own adjournment rights if the date is close. A HUD-approved counselor (800-569-4287) can help you press the lender.
Check the county listing first, since sales are adjourned constantly. If it did happen, there is generally a 10-day window before the sheriff’s deed is delivered, removal requires a court writ carried out by the sheriff, and any surplus above what was owed is generally yours after liens.
Educational information, not legal advice. Dates shown are estimates based on general New Jersey rules; the sheriff sets actual sale and adjourned dates, and your court papers control. Confirm everything on your county's official listing.
