In Illinois, foreclosure is a Judicial process. Your lender can initiate foreclosure proceedings by filing a lawsuit after the third missed payment (90 days late). This is known as the Lis Pendens (also referred to as the notice of default). The timeline for the sale of the property varies depending a number of factors, but can typically be around 210 days.
