California foreclosure laws
House foreclosure law in California is quite complex. In CA the property title remains in trust until the loan (mortgage) is paid out. Therefore, the foreclosure process in California does not generally involve court action.

The foreclosure process in California is generally governed by the Deed of Trust (often called the mortgage).
If the borrower is in default, house foreclosure usually means that a trustee acts as a representative of the lender and uses the 'power of sale clause' of the Deed to effect a sale, usually by auction. Since the court is not involved, this type of foreclosure process is call 'non-judicial'.
