Does foreclosure relieve the debt

It means the bank holding your mortgage will take your house from you and you will be forced to leave. The bank will then try to sell the house. If they don't sell it for enough to cover the balance of your loan, they will probably come after you for the difference. Foreclosure will also badly damage your credit rating making it very difficult to borrow money in the future.
