UTA offers several Foreclosure Certification courses and exams for members. UTA certification is designed so that employers and consumers alike will have the confidence in the recipient’s thorough knowledge of the nonjudicial foreclosure process. Courses are designed with applicable state law and are taught by a highly experience panel of instructors from the foreclosure, title and legal communities. Certified members have the knowledge and education necessary to perform the duties associated with the process of nonjudicial foreclosures.

The Basic Foreclosure Certification Course Syllabus includes: Outline of state foreclosure procedures; Monetary and non-monetary defaults; Judicial v. nonjudicial foreclosures; What a Lender provides to the Trustee; What a Trustee does; Notice of Default (NOD); What a Lender receives from a Trustee; Review of Trustee’s Sale Guarantees; Reinstatement; Notice of Sale (NOS); Presale Redemption; Sale; Trustee’s Deed; Proceeds of Sale; Bankruptcy.

The Basic Foreclosure Certification Course is four hours and the exam is a one-hour open book exam.

Among other things, this program will focus upon complex foreclosures including multiple notes, multiple deeds of trust, cross-default clauses, mixed collateral loans, mechanics liens, IRS liens, special federal liens, special issues at the sale, forbearance or workout agreements and Bankruptcy (in more depth than required for basic certification).
