Re: forclosure
It depends. If they have a deficiency judgment against you, which can only be obtained if it was a judicial foreclosure, then yes, they can come after you for the money. They would need to have a deficiency judgment in order to do so though. With no deficiency determined, they cannot pursue you for further payment.
