If the owner is unable to make sufficient payments, the property can be sold at auction. The time and place of the auction is published in official records. In case the value of the debt being foreclosed on is substantially less than the market value of the real property, this can finish the trouble for the debitor by paying all the credits. Germany In Germany the court may suspend the auction for 6 months on the debtor's justified request.

Compulsory Purchase In England And Wales
Compulsory purchase is the power to purchase or take rights over an estate in English land law, or to buy that estate outright, without the current owner's consent, in exchange for payment of compensation.
