What to do about the second loan?

Posted on: 29th Dec, 2011 01:15 am
hi there… we had filed bankruptcy around 10 years back which will dropping off next year from our credit reports. when we filed bk, we had one mortgage which has been discharged. but then, couple of years back we wanted to build a garage and took out a loan for it. now that we want to walkaway from the property, we don’t know what to do with the second mortgage. should we stop making payments on the second loan? will we be remain liable for the payments?
Hi Guest,

Though you walkaway from the property, you will be liable for paying off the second mortgage that you have taken out in order to build the garage. If you don't pay, the lender can get a judgment against you in order to garnish your wages or your savings account.

Take care

Hi Guest!

Welcome to forums!

I agree with what Sara has said. As your second mortgage was not included in your bankruptcy filing, you will be liable for paying off the mortgage in full even though you walkaway from the property.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
