AFTER the lender gets a JUDGEMENT, there are other legal options available to the lender. A lien on other property is one of them. This is MAJOR the drawback to CO-SIGNING.

AnswerUnlikely even though they threaten to especially if the deficiency is less than $10,000. Most lenders will run the maker down and garnish or levy but if all else fails they may try to tap you for some of it. Def's are hard to collect consuming resources of the lender including POOP money ( paid out of pocket ) labor, time, Attorney fees etc.. Most would rather have a payment plan with prompt payments. Then you can beatup the maker every month for the payment or at least some of it. ;) HOWEVER, as co-maker, your credit, income, ability and willingness to pay and assets may be evaluated and the def pursued. Best bet is to protect your credit and pay the car off, sell it for whatever to recoup some of the $ and take your hit. You can post a note on your credit report explaining the late payments.

Why won't they finance autos?

There are several reasons on why a finance company will not finance someone. the main reason is a repossession after a bankruptcy. Another main reason is the "lender" sees that you are about to file bankruptcy or they find out you are about to. It is very hard to finance based on cost and mobility. Sometime a mortgage is easier to get because you cannot move a house to the opposite coast overnight. Those are just a few reasons on why a finance company might not finance you.

If the borrower cannot make the payments but the cosigner does can the mortgage company still take the house?

Not if the cosigner has been making the payments on time. But often the cosigner doesn't know the loan is in default until it is past due 30 days or more, so if you have received two or three (depends on state laws) Right To Cure Default letters, the bank can foreclose.
