equity line of credit

Arizona rental foreclosed on

by Jarad 2 Comments

Question:  I live in California but owned a rental in Arizona that was foreclosed on. I had an equity line of credit on that home when it was foreclosed on. I believe I owed about $90K on that equity line of credit. Can they now come after me for the money? Is my only recourse bankruptcy?

 

Answer:

Well all you can do it wait and see what the bank sends you in the mail. They will either send you a 1099 or they will send you a judgment for the $90k. Now, I know that Arizona is a anti-deficiency state, however, there are 2 statutes that apply to foreclosure and in a lot of cases, homes that have 2nd mortgages do not fall into the category of either of these statutes because the money was not used in the purchase of a home. You might be able to work out a settlement with the bank especially if you threaten them with the bankruptcy card. A good attorney can help you with that. Worst case, most people just bk.

I wish you would have found us earlier… you could settle your note as well and save a lot of headache. Good Luck

Can I Settle my Equity Line of Credit with the Bank?

by Jarad 1 Comment

Question:  I own a property outright which has no mortgage. There is an equity line of credit which has come due, which I can not afford to pay in total. I consistently made payments on the equity line until November of 2011. The bank asked me to offer them a settlement which I have done and suggested that I not make anymore payments on the equity line. This has been dragging on for months. The bank asked me to let them appraise the property and then they would decide on the settlement. Is this normal procedure? Can you shed any light?

Line of credit in first position. What happens after a foreclosure by the second lender (in California)?

by Jarad 1 Comment

Question:  This question is about a line of credit in first position and what happens after a foreclosure by the second lender(in California). The loans are in an unusual order. I provided a second loan for an owner of a rental house (meaning I am a lender, somewhat like a bank). The owner/borrower already had a Wells Fargo line of credit secured by that rental house. Since the homeowner (now the previous owner) failed to make payments to me I caused the foreclosure and am the present owner. I want to ask “What happens with regard to the line of credit?”. The LOC is for $75,000 which is slightly more than the current value of the house. For that reason I think Wells Fargo will not want to foreclose on me. Will Wells Fargo in fact pursue me at all rather than the original borrower? If so, will they want instant repayment? If I can’t repay immediately how will Wells Fargo determine the rate of interest and repayment schedule?
