They can continue to make payments. The bank doesn't care where the money comes from.
As to transferring the property the easiest way would be to obtain a divorce from your dad and take the house in the divorce subject to obtaining a refinance of the mortgage.
Call the attorney... Read more »
Majority owner left property abandoned and failed to maintain. minority owner was not made aware of property tax costs. Majority
There is no law requiring notice, but if the owners have agreed that one owner is responsible for maintenance and doesn't do it, the other owner could sue to recover. Information on taxes is available on-line, so all owners can review what is owed. But if the owners have agreed that one... Read more »

My circumstances have changed and I regret including my home in my bankruptcy. I didn’t know if there was any way to get an amended agreement, etc.
Is the bankruptcy still open or is it closed? Did you receive a discharge or a dismissal? Is it or was it a Chapter 7 or 13? The first thing I would advise is to talk to your bankruptcy attorney if you had one. You need to sit down with your attorney or another attorney who handles bankruptcy so... Read more »

Take his deposition.
Now there is a tax lien. From 2010&2012. Can I sue the county to make them do a tax sale?
To understand correctly, you want to ask the county to sue to foreclose on your property due to the tax lien?
I would call a foreclosure or tax attorney to take a look at your situation.

Maybe. Before a Confirmation of Sale homeowners have a lot of options to save their home. Banks also often assign troubled loans, even while the foreclosure is going on.
Paperwork has been sent to myself and my brother. He claims we have 28 days to sell the real estate, an auction is set for Nov 6.
You will not be liable as far as your credit goes, they have to provide notices to the heirs in the event you'd like to buy the house or work something else out.
I am not able to pay the mortgage due to waiting for opers benefits and for his family's attorney to get everything put into my name. i need to know what i can do before our house is taken from us. Was planning on paying off mortgage once i received his opers benefits.
That depends, there are a few ways to delay foreclosure and hold the bank off depending on where you are in the process. It would be difficult to answer without more information.
Hi there, this question is missing a bit of important information. If the foreclosure was just filed on June 13, get an attorney to help you defend it. If you filed for bankruptcy which was discharged then the lender can only collect against the property and not you personally. If the lender... Read more »
Rental home is in Forexlosure, I paid rent and deposit to move in.forclosurer has started.90 days to leave.Homeowner is trying to collect rent
You may still have to pay rent, but you should begin looking for a new place to live. If the foreclosure just began the house likely won't sell for several months. Were you given a 90-day notice by the owner, and does that breach your lease? Either way, your lease is an independent obligation... Read more »
My name is the only name on the loan and it is in my previous name as well as the only name on the deed. If he doesn't sign it will foreclose. What options do I have?
File for divorce and get an order to sell the house from the divorce court.
I've not lived there in over six years and filed bankruptcy on the loans many years ago. I have no interest in keeping it and was just waiting for it to sell in the sheriff's sale. He wants me to sign a quit claim deed and says he will take care of the rest of the process (paying the... Read more »

She used to help me with bills. I am now two parents behind on my mortgage and do not know where to turn or what to do. Is it possible to have the garnishment stopped or lowered?
In order to stop the garnishment you may want to consult a bankruptcy attorney about having the debt discharged. On the mortgage you can request assistance from your lender by requesting a loan modification application.
Should I respond to court within 28 days as noted even though I am in a repayment plan?
Yes, do not ignore a summons. It's probably a mistake, but if you ignore it, the court will enter judgment against you.
Now my credit has dropped 200 points. The home is in pre-foreclosure and she has filed for bankruptcy. Will lenders come after my assets? Anything legally I need to do?
You signed the loan, so you are legally obligated to repay it in full, or the lender can sue you, foreclose, and collect from your assets. If you do not bring the mortgage current by paying the past due amounts, then the lender can foreclose, and you will be named as a defendant. If the property... Read more »
I'm in Ohio - Wayne County. When my now ex husband and I bought our home, we were both on the deed but the mortgage was in his name only (my student loans were too high for us both to be on). When we divorced, he quit-claimed the deed to me.
Now he is solo on the mortgage and I am... Read more »
Regardless of the ownership arrangement, the bank can start foreclosure proceedings if you do not make your payments.
