Hi Mgibbs,

After foreclosure, you can be sued by the second mortgage lender.

Hi Mgibbs,

In the situation of foreclosure on the first mortgage, many things can happen:

1) After foreclosure on the first mortgage, the second mortgage lender can file a civil judgment against you in the court. He can also garnish your income.

2) After the first mortgage lender gets their money through foreclosure, if anything remains, that will go to the second mortgage lender. But he can seek a deficiency judgment for the remaining amount of the loan.

3) If the second mortgage lender wants to recover his interest in the property, he can bid for the property at the time of foreclosure sale.

4) Even after the sale is over, if the second mortgage lender pays off the required amount of money to the first mortgage lender at the period of redemption, then the former can get back the property.

Also note that if the 2nd decides to take the loss you will incur it as income and get a 1099 next year.

You should sell. If you owe more than the house is worth try to get the 2nd to accept a lowered pay off. No use really negotiating with the 1st but a lot of times the 2nd will take pennies on the dollar rather than get nothing. But again you may incur the difference as income and be taxed on it.

Thanks everyone for the responses.

Is it worth it to try and come up with the amount owed in order to avoid the sale?

Hi Mary,

It is always worthy to come up with the required amount owed and repay it to the lender. This will help you to avoid the sale of your house. But, for the amount to be paid, you must make sure that you have the necessary fund.

Only you can decide if it is worth it to save it.

Be very careful however if you consider a foreclosure bailout company. As a lot of times they will scam a person just to try and make a quick buck off your misfortune. If they can't then they are out nothing and you still lose your home.

You can not forclose on both loans? What do people do that are facing forclosure with 80/10 or 80/20 loans?

Hi Rich,

Welcome to our forums.

It is true that one cannot go through foreclosure on both loans simultaneously. Now, if the first loan is in foreclosure, then the second lender will not be paid through the sale until and unless the first lender gets back his part of the loan balance. The remaining sale proceeds should go to the second lender.

Now, if the sale proceeds aren't enough, then the second lender will either demand the money and the borrower has to pay him. Or else, he can seek a judgment also to recover the unpaid part.

Alternatively the second lender can also do a charge-off on the loan implying that he forgives the debt and will not collect payments any more. But tell me more about your situation. Then I'll be able to give you a better suggestion.

Good luck Smile

Welcome William,

Talk to your second mortgage lender and see if they agree on an alternative repayment plan where you can make payments lower than what you're managing now on a monthly basis.
