to deed it back over to my name only, dissolve the LLC , and ask the court to remove the LLC from the foreclosure case. Can I do this ?
answered on Mar 10, 2022
You can do the first two but the court is not likely going to remove the LLC from the case because it had an interest in the property at the time of the foreclosure and that interest needs to be foreclosed.

If a moving party files a Motion and can not show for hearing what is proper procedure? Notice of cancellation with reasons or Withdraw the Motion itself? Is Motion basically withdrawn with a Notice to cancel anyway?
My father in-law passed away last September and for reasons unknown my mother in-law stopped paying her mortgage.

You should ask this question in Justia > Ask a Lawyer > Puerto Rico > Foreclosure, because it is a question of Puerto Rican law, not Florida law. But I would guess that he is being sued in case he might claim some interest in the property, not to make him pay. You indicate that you are... View More
What are usual odds for this that Plaintiff drops case since it cant collect ever anyway?
answered on Jul 25, 2021
They will not drop it in all likelihood as they know they can get the judgment if it is legitimate and then hound you and or hold it over you for the next 10-20 years unless you file for bankruptcy. Your best bet is to show up and try to fight them if you have any defenses or if they cannot prove... View More

The courts cannot give you legal advice -- that would be practicing law without a license, which is a felony. Without reviewing the docket, generally you can motion the court to reset the sale.

Without reviewing a title report I would say generally, yes. They have to clear any possible claims and interest against the property. It is especially important if there are judgments with the same name as the decedent. While the decedent might be "Joe J Smith," any judgment in the... View More

Yes, the property can be foreclosed on for an unpaid mortgage no matter who holds title. The note secures the property as payment. You should consult with a mortgage foreclosure defense attorney to make sure the bank is following all of the proper protocols and naming the proper parties. You... View More

Not all of your facts posted, but it appears you have an issue with more than one HOA having a lien on the property as well as a mortgage. You need to hire an attorney as soon as possible. Once the title issues you are 'jointly and severally' liable for any past due assessments of any... View More
There is a mortgage on the property, but the mortgage company hasn't foreclosed on the property. Am I allowed to rent out the property?
answered on Mar 24, 2021
Yes, until the property is foreclosed on and sold pursuant to that foreclosure.
Also the mortgage is not in default since I am the primary payer. I’m asking about his credit card creditors and if they can come after the house.
answered on Nov 27, 2020
Only in theory could they get a judgment and levy upon the house; their judgments would be junior to the mortgage
.
Can his creditors come after me or the house?
answered on Nov 27, 2020
It depends on who signed the mortgage note. If you both signed it, the mortgagee can come after either of you if the note isn't paid according to its terms. So if he dies AND the note isn't paid, the mortgagee could foreclose and seek a deficiency judgment against you. But in general,... View More

No, you have to pay the interest, attorneys' fees and costs. These are provided for by Florida law. If you cannot afford to pay in full you should 1) ask the law firm representing the HOA if the HOA will consider a payment plan or 2) consult with a bankruptcy attorney to see if you qualify...

You will if it goes to foreclosure sale. If you can pay off over 5 years you can file a chapter 13 bankruptcy. You really need to speak to an attorney asap.

If the property was auctioned before the executive order was issued in March, there would have been a certificate of sale issued giving you ten (10) days to redeem the property. If you do not redeem the property by paying the judgment, then a certificate of title is issued. The timing of these... View More

You do what the summons tells you to do. You answer the allegations of the complaint. Applying for assistance doesnt automatically stop the eviction process.
