UCC-1 Foreclosure Sales
UCC foreclosure sales are used when personal property is subject to a perfected security interest and disposition is pursued under the Uniform Commercial Code. These sales require careful coordination, proper notice, and a commercially reasonable sale process.
MEGA Auctions provides UCC-1 Foreclosure Sale services for secured creditors, lenders, and attorneys who need assets sold in a controlled, transparent, and well-documented manner.
When UCC-1 Foreclosure Sales Are Used
UCC-1 foreclosure sales are typically pursued when:
- A secured obligation is in default
- The creditor has a perfected security interest
- Disposition is authorized under applicable UCC provisions
- Assets must be sold to satisfy or reduce the secured debt
These matters often involve heightened scrutiny and require strict adherence to procedural requirements.
A Commercially Reasonable Sale Process
UCC foreclosure sales must be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. This standard affects how assets are marketed, how sales are structured, and how outcomes are documented.
Our approach typically includes:
- Confirming authority to proceed with sale
- Coordinating notice requirements with counsel
- Selecting an appropriate sale method
- Marketing assets to a relevant buyer audience
- Conducting the sale in a transparent manner
The process is tailored to the asset type and circumstances involved.
Notice, Marketing & Execution
Proper notice and marketing are critical components of UCC foreclosure sales.
This may involve:
- Providing notice to required parties
- Publishing or distributing sale information as appropriate
- Allowing reasonable time for buyer participation
- Executing the sale consistent with UCC standards
Documentation of these steps is an important part of the record.
Proceeds Handling & Recordkeeping
Following a UCC foreclosure sale, proceeds must be handled in accordance with applicable requirements.
This may include:
- Application of proceeds to secured obligations
- Accounting of costs and sale expenses
- Documentation supporting the disposition
Clear records help address questions that may arise after the sale.
