I know Michigan is a deficiency judgment state. I'm just wondering what the statute of limitation is on such a judgment? Thanks!

If not then try and avoid foreclosure. BTW I think the statute of limitations on a mortgage deficiency in Michigan is 6 years on Breach of Contract and for judgment it is 10 years and it is renewable for another 10 years. Feel free to ask if you have any further questions. Best of luck, Larry

So in your case it may be that the court has given the decision in favor of the lender that you will have to pay the deference after the foreclosure. They can place lien for the due debt on your other properties. BTW how much do you owe to the lender and how loan ago did the fore closure occurred? Best of luck, Larry

As far as I know, if you do not have a homeowner's insurance or if you are not paying your mortgage insurance regularly, then the lender will not approve your mortgage. In order to get a mortgage, you need to pay off the pending homeowner's insurance. Thanks.

It means once the judgment is past the SOL period, the lender or the creditor will not be able to come after you for the deficiency.

I assume I am not dealing with a judgement. I think it is considered a forelosure. How long does this foreclosure stay on my credit reports?

As far as I know, the laws in Michigan allows the lenders to file deficiency judgments against the borrowers. So, you should get in touch with the lender and check out whether or not you need to pay off the balance dues. Take care.

I had to file bankruptcy in 2005 and the loan was on a visa card which was included in the bankruptcy. It is now Oct 2010 and I am now hearing from Wells Fargo that they want me to start making the loan payments again. They say they have a lien on my home and I need to pay back the loan amount. If they where listed in the Bankruptcy in 2005 can they come after me now after 5 years with out any word asking me to start paying back the loan again?

However, the lender holds the lien on the property. In order to recover the dues, he can sell off the property. _________________ Procrastination is the enemy of your financial success
