Re: Owing Money on a HELOC - going into foreclosureIn Reply to: Owing Money on a HELOC - going into foreclosure posted by Ryan on February 12, 2008 at 4:09 PM : I stopped paying my mortgage and HELOC 4 months back. I understand the second mortgage holder is holding the bag, so to speak. I used the money for other things, and I have lost most of it. Are there any repurcussions other than my credit score? "Other things" like what? Assuming the First forecloses and wipes the Second off your property, the bank could go and get a Deficiency Judgement and chase you for the money for the rest of your life. They could have the sheriff seize your bank accounts, garnish your wages, take your car (if it's paid for). They could call you into a Judgement Debtor hearing and take the cash out of your pockets, the watch off your wrist and the ring off your finger. If you die and leave anything behind they could go after your estate. That being said they may do absolutely nothing at all. No one knows.
