Hi Adrian,

If you are unable to make payments on your two properties and you default on your town home, your lender can foreclose on it. However, they will not be able to foreclose on your primary residence. In case of a default, the lender can foreclose only on the collateral. Thus, if you stay current on the mortgage on your primary residence, the lender cannot come after it. But the lender may get a judgment against you if you fail to pay off the mortgage on the town home and may place a lien on your primary residence.
