The way in which this will affect you is that the estate might lose the property in the foreclosure action, meaning it would not go to you. The plaintiff (the mortgage company) is entitled to recover their costs and attorneys fees, and again, since you are a one third owner (from your description) the payment of the costs will affect you.
