Non-Judicial Foreclosure in Arkansas
Arkansas allows non-judicial foreclosure under the Mortgage Foreclosure Act. Notice must be published for 4 consecutive weeks. Buyers get a deed upon sale completion.
Non-judicial states use a “power of sale” or trustee process that moves faster than court-supervised foreclosures.
