How long after foreclosure will I be responsible for the upkeep of the vacant property? Is it after the bank takes it back of after the bank has sold it?

Responsible to who? Once the property is foreclosed it belongs to the bank and is the bank's problem. Why would you have an obligation?

If there are association dues you may be liable for those. Other than that if you are on the utilities, you may be liable for those. Also, you may be personally liable for any deficiency on the note.
