Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

Twenty thousand more! Why?

I was basically forced to go with a preditory lender, when my house went into forclosure and I was not able to file bankruptcy because of finances. I recently lost my job and missed a payment, now I am facing eviction. I found a family member who is willing to refinance my house and pay off the contract with the lender, but the lender has tacked on an additional twenty thousand dollars because I defaulted on the loan. This takes my house out of my family member's loan to debt ratio. Is this legal and enforceable? If not, what is my recource?
