The process by which the holder of a mortgage seizes the property of a homeowner who has not made interest and/or principal payments on time as stipulated in the mortgage contract.

Foreclosure results in a loss for the lender and is obviously quite detrimental to the borrower; as a result, it is the last resort. Most of the time, lenders attempt to work with the borrower to come up with a better solution, such as extending the repayment period in order to lower payments.

Domaine(s)
  • Psychologie (Généralités)
CONT

Forclusion a été employé par J. Lacan pour désigner la disparition totale, irréversible, d'un élément vécu. La forclusion résulte d'une attitude maternelle qui empêche l'enfant d'accéder à l'ordre du symbole et du langage, en s'appropriant le nom-du-père, fondement de sa propre identité. Dès lors la forclusion du nom-du-père le promet à l'imaginaire de la psychose.
