Facing foreclosure in Olympia? Start here.
Thurston County (the Olympia/Lacey capital area) follows the statewide non-judicial process, with the sale typically held at the county courthouse. Whatever stage you're at — a few payments behind, a Notice of Default, or a scheduled trustee's sale — we can help you understand exactly where you stand and what to do next.
How foreclosure works for Olympia homeowners
Like the rest of Washington, Olympia foreclosures are handled non-judicially under the state Deed of Trust Act — through a trustee, without a court case. The lender records a Notice of Trustee's Sale with the Thurston County Auditor in Olympia, and by law the sale can't happen sooner than 120 days after that notice. Sales for Thurston County homes are typically held at the Thurston County Courthouse in Olympia.
The most important deadline: you can usually reinstate your loan (pay what's past due plus costs) up to 11 days before the sale — and you can sell right up until the sale itself. That's why Olympia homeowners who act early keep the most options.

Olympia foreclosure questions
Can I sell my house fast in Olympia if I'm facing foreclosure?
Yes. In Washington your right to sell lasts until the trustee's sale itself, so Olympia homeowners can sell — to a cash buyer or on the market — any time before that date. A cash sale can often close in days, before your sale date, so you protect your credit and equity.
How long do I have before a foreclosure sale in Olympia?
Washington is a non-judicial foreclosure state. After you're 120+ days behind, the lender records a Notice of Trustee's Sale, and by law the sale can't be held sooner than 120 days after that. So Olympia homeowners typically have several months to act — but the sooner the better.
Where is the foreclosure auction held for Olympia homes?
Olympia is in Thurston County, so trustee's sales for local homes are generally held at the Thurston County Courthouse in Olympia, and the notices are recorded with the Thurston County Auditor in Olympia.
Do you charge Olympia homeowners any fees?
Never. Our help is free, and if you sell to us there are no commissions, no closing costs, and no repairs — we buy as-is. Anyone asking for money upfront to stop a foreclosure is a scam.
