foreclosureLegal proceeding by which a borrower's rights to a mortgaged property may be extinguished if the borrower fails to live up to the obligations agreed to in the loan contract.

Foreclosure is commonly by a court-decreed sale of the property to the highest bidder, who is often the lender. See also mortgage. How to thank TFD for its existence?
