Yes, but whomever buys at the second foreclosure will own the property subject to the first lienholder's debt. The first lienholder can still foreclose and wipe out the second.

Can a mortgage company sue for the entire amount of a second mortgage after foreclosure even though they received money to cover the first and some of the second after the sale of the property?

What does a primary mortgage lender do?

The primary mortgage lender holds the first mortgage. If his mortgage is not paid, he sells the property. He gets paid. You may have a second mortgage. If the second mortgage lender is not paid, he can sell the property. If he sells the property, the primary mortgage lender gets paid first, then the secondary lender gets paid.


Can a second mortgage put your home in foreclosure?

Yes, any unpaid mortgage can put your home in jeopardy of foreclosure.


Can a first mortgage foreclose with a second?

Yes. The second is subordinate to the first mortgage and therefore is at greater risk. If equity exists, the 2nd mortgage holder may receive payment for the debt when a senior lender forecloses. If there is not, then their lien on the property is wiped out and they must pursue the borrower in another fashion (such as a lawsuit). If the 2nd mortgage lender does not want the 1st lender to foreclose, they may choose to pay the 1st mortgage current before the foreclosure proceeds and attempt to collect or foreclose themselves.

If you are in foreclosure for your first mortgage are you still responsible for the second mortgage if there is a second mortgage on the property?

If your first mortgage is in the process of foreclosure that foreclosure will extinguish the second mortgage as to the real estate. The foreclosure of the first mortgage terminates all subsequent interests in the real estate. After the foreclosure the real estate can be sold free and clear of any subsequent mortgages or liens. However, the debtor remains responsible for the second mortgage debt.Any remaining proceeds from the foreclosure sale after the first mortgage is satisfied are paid toward the second mortgage. In some states the second mortgagee can seek a "deficiency judgment" in court against the debtor. However, even when possible it's not often done due to the costs and the slim probability the debtor will have the ability to pay.You should check your state laws.
