You aren't personally liable for the mortgage payments as your name is not mentioned on the mortgage docs. However, if you don't pay the mortgage debts on time, the lender will foreclose the property. In order to get the mortgage transferred in your name, you can assume the loan. After you assume the loan, if you have equity in your property, you will be able to refinance your mortgage. Thanks

I pay it on time every month. They sent me loan modification papers today don't make sense to feel them out and get all this paper work together for them to say i am not the borrower. They even filled in some of the paper for me like my name, ssn on this paper work say I'm the borrower. Thank you James for advice.
