Foreclosure is the legal process by which a lender takes possession of a property when a borrower fails to make mortgage payments. It allows the lender to sell the property to recover the outstanding debt.

In the context of foreclosure, a deed transfers ownership of the foreclosed property to the new owner, typically the buyer at a foreclosure sale.
