Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

I downsized and put my home on the market in October 2010, and purchased a small condo. I still pay the mortgage and utilities on the home. However, as a senior citizen on a fixed income, it is becomiing more difficult to continue paying these monthly bills.

My question is, can the mortgage company put a lean on the condo I currently live in since it is paid for and is bank account in jeoprady of being tapped into by the mortgage company as well?

If they foreclose, confirm the sale, and sue you and win a judgment for the balance, the answer is yes to all the questions (assuming the house is in GA and the standard loan documents are used).
