Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

There is no time limit on how long is too long for the notice, though there is time limit on giving enough notice. Each time the sale date changes, though, they must give new notice. So you have a defect in the sale. Since the bank took the property, you don't have the problem of a good faith purchaser who took the property without notice of the defect. The problem you have, however, is that unless you are prepared to actually cure the default and either refi or come current on the loan, all the bank has to do is re-notice the sale and do it again. Do you really want to spend the attorneys fees to accomplish a delay of a couple of months? You might be a lot better off just asking for a "cash for keys" deal.

After the breach and default notices that started the foreclosure proceedings, you are then entitled to a [one] notice of foreclosure sale date with 'default cure' requirements and procedure. If you didn't cure the default or obtain some kind of 'deal' from them in writing, the sale could go forward on that date, or be postponed at their discretion, without further notice to you. You may have a one year redemption right, exercisable by paying off the loan balance, accrued interest and foreclosure costs. If you could do that, you probably could have paid off the default and stopped the foreclosure.

Once foreclosed, the new owner can evict any occupants by following proper legal procedure. You have stated no defenses to an eviction. If you have any, you could raise them by filing appropriate pleadings in that case and defending on that basis at trial. You could try to negotiate a rental/lease agreement with the new owner rather than be evicted.
