Correct Answer

D) The lender may exercise a power-of-sale clause to conduct a non-judicial sale

There is no power-of-sale mechanism available to lenders in Kentucky, regardless of any language in the mortgage document.

Answer Options
A
The lender must file a lawsuit in circuit court to initiate foreclosure
B
A court judgment must be obtained before the property can be sold
C
The property is sold at a sheriff's sale after a court judgment is entered
