Question If a person forecloses on a home in Arizona that has the 1st and 2nd at the same bank does everything go away and your credit rating tanks? Or does the 2nd become a unsecured debt that can ultimately force a person to declare bankruptcy because it never goes away? What is the worst that can happen and what is normal?
Answer This is really a question for an attorney. You may want to run it past this past an attorney. There used to be attorneys on this site but I can not find them.
In most cases the property liens are forgiven before the title of the property is transferred fro the owner to the bank. But the judge can order all of part of the mortgage to be paid. This can vary from state t state. This site will give you a bit of information. http://www.foreclosurelaw.org/
In most cases the 1st and 2nd mortgage are forgiven. I would consult an attorney to make sure everything is taken care of before giving up title on the property.
