Glossary · Doing the deal
In short
A formal written notification from your lender stating that your loan is in default due to missed payments or other breaches of the loan agreement. It's a serious warning.
Receiving a Notice of Default means your lender has identified a breach of your loan agreement. This notice typically specifies the default and a period to cure it. Immediately consult with an attorney and your lender to understand your options and avoid further action.
