How does foreclosure work in Indiana?
Indiana uses a judicial foreclosure process. Until the sheriff's sale — the owner holds title and can sell and keep equity any time before the auction; after the sale the deed goes to the purchaser with no redemption.
Can you catch up and keep your home?
Before final judgment, paying the amounts actually due (installments/arrears plus costs) requires dismissal of the foreclosure; owner-occupants also get a presuit notice and may request a court settlement conference under IC 32-30-10.5.

The honest math on a Indiana foreclosure
Every day you carry the loan, arrears, fees, and interest grow. A traditional listing takes weeks to market and 30–45 more days for a financed buyer to close — time you may not have before the sale date.
A cash sale that closes before the sale date lets you walk away with your equity instead of losing it at auction. Talk to a free HUD counselor too — you may have options beyond selling.
