Re: Forcloser
First, your husband cant foreclose on you for properties that you both own. The mortgage companies are foreclosing because you and your husband failed to make the mortgage payments.
A foreclosure is a lawsuit that basically has two parts-a suit for money, that being the amount of the loan, the second part is to foreclose the mortgage so a sheriff sale can be held to sell the property and apply the sale proceeds to the amount owed on the loan.
You should seek counsel immmediately since your rights are at issue and there are time deadlines in your ex-husbands bankruptcy that will pass quickly
Since foreclosure is debt collection, it will appear on your credit
