Question:  I have a home equity line of credit and am delinquent 1200. The credit union has a copy of the mobile home title, but is not listed as security interest holder. I have made arrangements to catch up the past due balance. We have not signed any mortgage papers. Can they foreclose based on a copy of the title. They want us to add them as security interest holders and said that also included our tax lots.

Answer:  - Anyone can foreclose if they have a lien on your property. If you borrowed money from a HELOC that is attached to another property to buy this mobile home, then the credit union will foreclose on the property attached to the lien that was pledged as collateral for the loan.

Question: I own a home in Florida. We owned the home outright and then got a home equity line of credit. We have not made a payment in 2 years!! I heard they can not evict. Is this true? I call and email them all the time and they never respond.

Answer: -You haven’t made a payment in two years and you own the home outright beside a small line of credit…You are crazy for not making that payment unless the home is not worth what you owe on the home equity line of credit.  No they can’t evict you…yet!  Once they foreclose on the property they can evict you.  I would try to get something worked out quickly especially if you have a great deal of equity in your home.
