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.

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.

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... View 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
answered on Jul 3, 2019
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... View 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?
answered on Mar 8, 2017
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?
answered on Feb 13, 2017
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... View More
