During the 5 week notice period, the homeowner can stop the foreclosure by making-up all missed payments (including late fees and attorney costs) or working with an attorney to stop the foreclosure process. The only time it is too late to stop a foreclosure is when the property is sold at auction to a new party.

A non judicial foreclosure in Utah can be completed in about 4 months if it is not contested by the borrower. The time frame for a judicial foreclosure depends on the court's schedule and the rulings of the court.
