I need to know this... If I take out a mortgage and after few months or years, if I cannot pay off the mortgage, the house will be foreclosed and sold off by the bank. But will the bank come after me to recover the loan? Will they also recover the interest rate?
Yes, the bank can definitely come after you to recover the dues if you are living in a recourse state. However, if you are living in a non-recourse state, then the lender won't be able to some after you for the deficient balance.
Hi L Bruce!
Welcome to the forums!
I agree with what Niicss has said. You should check your state laws in this regard to find out if your lender can come after you to recover the deficient balance.
Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
