Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas
collections after foreclosure
I had a property foreclosed on 9/06. It had two liens on it. The second lien showed charged off as a loss on 1/07 in my credit report. The loan was transferred to another servicer 1/08 and they are sueing me for the full amount plus atty fees. Is that legal after they have charged the debt off.

Yes. It is called a deficiency judgment. You may want to consult a bankruptcy attorney.
