Yes! When a lien from a credit card or any unsecured debt shows up on a property title search, its a second to the primary lien. Any mortgage or taxes would be paid first. So if you were buying or selling a house with that type of lien, you can contact the company who placed the lien and offer them an amount to settle their claim. Its usually far less than whats owed because they could get nothing in many cases. Many settle for 10% to 20%.

When debt was illegally incurred by a niece is credit card company entitled to insurance payment since house burnt down?

Possibly.

You can, of course, sue your niece to recover anything you had to pay because of her actions.


How can you forfeit your mortgage and keep your credit good?

The best of all worlds would be that you could either negotiate new payment terms or refinance so that you could keep the house. Or, that you sell the house before it forecloses for the amount that you owe. Both of these options require action on your part. Otherwise, the foreclosure will go on your credit report, where it will remain for several years. New lenders will consider the time since the foreclosure and also the state of the other credit accounts in determining whether they will offer you a loan and at what rate.

How can you get the best mortgage rates?

Have pristine credit. The better your credit history is, the lower your mortgage rate will be. The worst things you can do to your credit, in the eyes of a mortgage company: 1) Not pay your bills. This is absolutely the worst thing. 2) Not use credit at all. If you never use credit, the mortgage company can't determine how you act when you do. 3) Not carry a balance. If you get a credit card, make small purchases and always pay them in full at the end of the month, mortgage companies consider that not using credit. 4) Having way too much available credit. If you have many credit cards, the mortgage company will assume you might actually use all that credit. If you DO use it all, you won't be able to pay your house payment.


Can a credit card company put a lien on a house that you own with another person or by yourself to try to collect their money?

It depends. Some credit cards come to you as equity loans (you activate the card, it gives you a limit on the card equal to the equity on your house) and if you don't pay off the loan, the house belongs to the company. If it is a regular credit card and you don't pay, they may take you to court and win a judgment against you. That would allow them to put a lien on the house in the amount of the judgement. So, to answer your question, yes, there are ways that a credit card company can put a lien on your house.
