Re: loans and judgements

You can always try to sell your property. Of course, anything constituting a lien on the property will need to be paid off at closing. So if the mortgages, judgments and closing costs exceed the purchase price, then you would have to bring money to the closing. If you still have equity in the house, then you would be okay. If you get behind in the mortgage, the mortgage company could try to foreclose. Seek assistance and advice before you reach that point.
