Hi Toby,

If you let one of your properties go into foreclosure, it will effect your property in a negative way and reduce your credit score by 250 points. Moreover, as a negative item, it would remain on your credit report for the next 7 years. Also, you won't be able to qualify for a loan in the next 3-4 years. It will hardly matter whether or not you had a second loan.

Take care.

Post     Post subject: Forcloser process

My fiance's home was in the forcloser process because his ex-wife was ordered to pay the mortgage and insurance while she resided there. He then purchased it out of the forcloser. Will the fact that it originally went into forcloser affect his credit

Welcome sweetpea,

If your fiance's name was not on the mortgage when the property was foreclosed upon, then his credit would not be affected in any way. However, if his name was on the mortgage, then his credit can get lowered by 250 points.

Hi Guest,

As your father is the co-borrower of the mortgage, his credit report will be affected similarly as yours. Your father's credit score will go down by 250 points after the foreclosure. Moreover, he will not be able to qualify for a mortgage in the next 3-4 years. As a negative item, the foreclosure will remain on his credit report for 7 years.

Post     Post subject: deed liability?

Hello all-

Question: My name is the only one on the note. However, my name and my mother's name are on the deed? I am trying to short sale, and if not successful, I plan on doing a deed in lieu. I already know I will get a credit hit, but will my mother's credit get affected even though she is not on the mortgage note?

Welcome nando,

As your mother's name is not on the mortgage docs, her credit score will not be ruined due to the deed in lieu of foreclosure. It is your credit score that would be ruined due to the deed in lieu of the property.

My fiance is going through the foreclosure process. I have two children and excellent credit. If we marry before the house is forclosed, will it hurt my credit in any way? We want to do what's best financially.

not at all, dee. what's his is his until it becomes yours jointly, and you won't be taking a share in his dwelling, of course. you have no liability at all.

If filing a bankrupcy and the homestead is not included but gets forclosed shortly after anyways how will it be looked at, another big hit to credit and if in question should it be included in bankrupcy to atleast minimumize more damage to credit

Bankruptcy as a whole will affect your credit score and lower it. Whether there's a homestead on the property or not will have nothing to do with the credit affect after bankruptcy.

Post     Post subject: forclosure delima

Hi, my question is: If I have had a foreclosure and the house has since been sold to another couple, If I was put on another morgage loan title (with my new spouse), can the old (foreclosure) company legally put a lien on or come after me for the foreclosure amount on the previous house?
