How sheriff sales work in Kent County

Kent County holds mortgage-foreclosure sheriff sales most months and monition (tax) sales about every three months, in Dover. Sales are confirmed by the Superior Court, and before the sale the owner can usually still stop it by curing the default, through foreclosure mediation, or by selling. Our Kent County sheriff sale guide covers the schedule, deposits and confirmation in detail.

If your home in 19952 is on a sheriff sale list

Start with free, independent help before you talk to any buyer, including us:

  1. Call a HUD-approved housing counselor. Counseling is free and counselors can talk to your lender for you. Find a HUD-approved counselor in Delaware or use the CFPB counselor search.
  2. Use Delaware's foreclosure mediation program. If the house is a 1 to 4 unit home you live in, the Delaware Automatic Residential Mortgage Foreclosure Mediation Program lets you meet your lender face to face. Hotline (800) 220-5424, mortgage.mediation@delaware.gov.
  3. Check state assistance. The Delaware State Housing Authority lists current homeowner assistance programs.
  4. If the sale already happened, check whether you are owed surplus money through the Superior Court's Project Rightful Owner. Claiming is free; you don't need to pay a finder.
  5. Talk to a Delaware attorney about bankruptcy or defenses if the sale date is close.
