It is likely that you were named in an abundance of caution as having a potential interest in the property. All parties with an interest in a property must be named in a foreclosure. You can likely do nothing and be fine, but if you'd rather file something with the court disclaiming your... View More

In a situation like yours, where your property was damaged due to your neighbor's shed burning down, you may have grounds for a claim. Since the house is inherited and the current owner has not maintained insurance, this complicates matters, but it doesn't necessarily mean you have no... View More

Yes, but the better thing to do would be to reach out to the bank to engage in loss mitigation. This would pause the foreclosure while they determined whether you are eligible for any loss mitigation options, including modification of the loan, and will give you time to either sell or refinance.

You probably need to file a partition action to force the sale. Except, the mortgage company may beat you to forcing another sale. A partition action can take months (or years) before you reach the end. I recommend you find a real estate attorney to advise you what your rights are.

As of today, it says motion to stay, confirmation of sale, and enlarge time to redeem does that mean the defendant gets to keep their property?
answered on Aug 23, 2023
There's not quite enough information here to answer fully, but it appears as though the property owner is disputing the foreclosure process. Possibly they weren't served under Civ. R. 4, or have other grounds for contesting the foreclosure itself. "Motion to stay" could mean a... View More
I electronically filed a motion to stay with the court, and it was approved. This happened after the Plaintiff already had a Sheriff's auction and obtained my home, as well as they filed a Writ of Possession. If it was electronically filed and approved, does this mean that judge approved it or... View More

The homeowner maintains title in the real property until the Sheriff's Sale is confirmed. The right of the purchaser at sale to obtain a writ of possession is typically included in the decree of foreclosure. However, the order of confirmation is the mechanism that cuts off the... View More

An Ohio attorney could advise best, but it looks like your question was overlooked under the general Uncategorized heading. You could try reposting under Collections, Foreclosure, Bankruptcy, and Civil Litigation. This looks like something for attorneys who practice in one of those areas. Good luck
I was summoned as a defendant, along with the owner and a village. What might be the reason for my summons?
answered on Nov 1, 2022
If you have been summoned, did you also receive a copy of the complaint? The complaint should say specifically why you are being named.
It's possible it's something simple that doesn't require a response, but it's possible you will need to file a response. Better safe... View More

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.

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... View More
