Redemption Period

by | Feb 10, 2026

In real estate law, a redemption period is the statutory time frame during which a borrower or property owner may redeem property after foreclosure. During this period, the owner can recover the property by paying the required amounts.

Redemption periods are typically established by law and often apply following a judicial foreclosure. Once the redemption period expires, the right to redeem is lost and the title becomes final in the purchaser or lender.
