What is Mortgage Reinstatement?

By definition, a mortgage reinstatement is restoring a loan
after the lender files foreclosure against the borrower who never made payments, even after the given grace period. During the process of foreclosure, the lender will deactivate the non-paid loan until a trustee sale. Prior to a trustee sale, the borrower can still reinstate the mortgage loan up to five days before the foreclosure auction.3

In order to achieve a mortgage reinstatement, the borrower must bring their mortgage note
current and pay only with “good funds” the delinquencies including other fees and charges. Once received, the lender will return the loan back into active status.

However, this happens under statutory regulation. In most states, borrowers have the right to reinstate their mortgage before the trustee sale, like for example in California and Oregon. Unfortunately borrowers living in Georgia cannot reinstate their mortgage before the trustee sale.
Foreclosure and the right of reinstatement

On mortgage defaults under a promissory note
and deed of trust, the lender has the option to:

* Exercise the power of sale clause in the deed of trust and file a notice of foreclosure against the borrower to the trustee.
* Collect the note due, accelerate payment of the entire mortgage amount and initiate judicial foreclosure.

Typically, lenders prefer foreclosure by a trustee sale because it is hassle-free and less expensive. As a borrower you must know your statutory rights when this happens. There is actually a reinstatement law that applies to both options such that:

Under Arizona Revised Statute Section 33-813(A), the borrower is obligated to pay only “the entire amount then due…, other than the portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred…” Meaning, the borrower (trustor) may reinstate their mortgage (or fix the default under the promissory note) by paying the lender the delinquent dues only, contrary to the belief that the borrower must pay the entire loan amount in order to fix the default and reinstate their mortgage.
