Best Answer

The one liable for the loan is the one who signed the loan note. Anyone else just looses rights to the home without regard to the loan.

Some states, such as California, are "non recourse" states and a lender cannot pursue you for losses if then home is foreclosed and sold for less than was owed. This does NOT apply to non-purchase second mortgages. Other states allow lenders to pursue borrowers for a deficiency balance, or amounts owed above what the home sold for to match what was owed.

Are you liable if your spouse has a foreclosure but your name is not on the loan or the final deed when it was signed back to the bank?

The liability in foreclosure comes from the responsibility for the mortgage debt. Regardless of your legal ownership or interest in the home, you do not have liability for the mortgage debt if you are not a party to the loan (did not sign). The home is the collateral for the loan and can be foreclosed and sold as recourse when the loan goes into default. While everyone who has an interest in the home loses their rights to the home when it is foreclosed, the liability for the loan and any negative actions associated with that (collections, lawsuits, negative credit reporting) belong solely to the signers on the loan.
