I'm an Alabama foreclosure expert. I'm not licensed to practice law in Oregon, but I researched this for you and THINK Oregon law requires a notice of default be filed in the county clerk's office before a lender can foreclose. After that, but at least 120 days before the sale date, certain notices must go out. The two statues are reprinted below. It seems to me that the earliest warning of future foreclosures is by checking the notices in the county clerk's office. You should call them and see if you can search their records online. I hope this helps.
86.752 Foreclosure by advertisement and sale.
A trustee may not foreclose a trust deed by advertisement and sale in the manner provided in ORS 86.740 to 86.755 unless:
(1) The trust deed, any assignments of the trust deed by the trustee or the beneficiary and any appointment of a successor trustee are recorded in the mortgage records in the counties in which the property described in the deed is situated;
(2) There is a default by the grantor or other person that owes an obligation, the performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the grantor's or other person's successors in interest with respect to a provision in the deed that authorizes sale in the event of default of the provision;
(3) The trustee or beneficiary has filed for record in the county clerk's office in each county where the trust property, or some part of the trust property, is situated, a notice of default containing the information required by ORS 86.745 and containing the trustee's or beneficiary's election to sell the property to satisfy the obligation;
(4) The beneficiary has filed for recording in the official records of the county or counties in which the property that is subject to the residential trust deed is located:
(a) A certificate of compliance that a service provider issued to the beneficiary under section 5, chapter 304, Oregon Laws 2013 (Enrolled Senate Bill 558), that is valid and unexpired at the time the notice of default is recorded; or
(b) A copy of the affidavit with which the beneficiary claimed, under section 2 (1)(b), chapter 304, Oregon Laws 2013 (Enrolled Senate Bill 558), an exemption that has not expired;
(5) The beneficiary has complied with the provisions of ORS 86.748;
(6) The grantor has not complied with the terms of any foreclosure avoidance measure upon which the beneficiary and the grantor have agreed; and
(7) An action has not been commenced to recover the debt or any part of the debt then remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if an action has been commenced, the action has been dismissed, except that:
(a) Subject to ORS 86.010 and the procedural requirements of ORCP 79 and 80, an action may be commenced to appoint a receiver or to obtain a temporary restraining order during foreclosure of a trust deed by advertisement and sale, except that a receiver may not be appointed with respect to a single-family residence that the grantor, the grantor's spouse or the grantor's minor or dependent child occupies as a principal residence.
(b) An action may be commenced to foreclose, judicially or nonjudicially, the same trust deed as to any other property covered by the trust deed, or any other trust deeds, mortgages, security agreements or other consensual or nonconsensual security interests or liens that secure repayment of the debt.
86.764 Notice of sale to be given to certain persons.
(1) After recording a notice of default as provided in ORS 86.735 and at least 120 days before the day the trustee conducts the sale, notice of the sale with the contents described in ORS 86.745 must be served pursuant to ORCP 7 D(2) and 7 D(3) or mailed by both first class and certified mail with return receipt requested.
(2) The notice described in subsection (1) of this section must be served or mailed to the last-known address of the following persons or the legal representatives of the persons, if any:
(a) The grantor in the trust deed.
(b) Any successor in interest to the grantor whose interest appears of record, or of whose interest the trustee or the beneficiary has actual notice.
(c) Any person, including the Department of Revenue or another state agency, that has a lien or interest subsequent to the trust deed if the lien or interest appears of record or the beneficiary has actual notice of the lien or interest.
(d) A person that requests notice as provided in ORS 86.785.
(3) A notice served by mail under subsection (1) of this section is effective when the notice is mailed.
(4) (a) The disability, insanity or death of a person to whom the notice required under this section must be given does not delay or impair in any way the trustee's right under a trust deed to foreclose under the deed. If the disability, insanity or death occurs before the notice of default is recorded, the notice required under this section must be given instead to the guardian, the conservator of the estate of the person or the administrator or personal representative of the person in the manner and by the time set forth in this section.
(b) If the disability, insanity or death of a person to whom the notice required under this section must be given occurs on or after the notice of default is recorded, the trustee shall, if and when the trustee has knowledge of the disability, insanity or death, promptly give the guardian, the conservator of the estate or the administrator or personal representative the required notice by sending the notice by first class and certified mail with return receipt requested to the last-known address of the guardian, conservator or administrator or personal representative.
(c) If there is no administrator or personal representative of the estate of the person to whom the notice required under this section must be given, the notice may be given instead to the heirs at law or devisees of the deceased person in the manner and by the time set forth in this section.
(5) If the owner of real property subject to foreclosure dies and the real property is also subject to a transfer on death deed, as provided by ORS 93.948 to 93.979, the notice required under this section must be given to the beneficiary designated under the transfer on death deed.
