Question: are due on sale clauses enforceable in california?
Answer: During the 1970's, California1 and several other states enacted laws making due-on-sale clauses unenforceable. In response, Congress enacted the Garn-St. Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982 (the Act or the Garn-St. Germain Act), preempting state laws restricting the enforcement of due-on-sale clauses.
