What if your daughter bought a home with her grandmother as a co-signer she now faces foreclosure should she file chapter 13 bankruptcy how does all this effect her grandmother?
If the house is headed for foreclosure, anyone on the title and the mortgage is facing foreclosure, not just one of the owners. If the daughter was responsible for the mortgage payments by agreement with her grandmother, and got behind in payments, she may be able to pull the mortgage out of foreclosure by a Chapter 13, if she can afford the plan payments and the current mortgage payments. If the Chapter 13 cannot succeed without financial input from the grandmother, it will be up to her to let it go forward and lose the house. Either way, the fact that the house is in foreclosure will affect her credit score.

You are responsible for paying off any mortgages you have on your property. Defaulting on the second mortgage will have consequences.

But if you default on a mortgage and go into foreclosure that will haunt you for the next 10 years.

Is foreclosure done quicker if home has been discharged in bankruptcy?
A home is not discharged in bankruptcy. The mortgage(s) and home equity loans, lines of credit, etc., are discharged, but you have to abandon the real estate in the bankruptcy. That means the mortgagee can go ahead with a foreclosure if there was none before the filing, once the Chapter 7 is closed. Chances are the mortgagee would ask for relief from stay to go ahead with the foreclosure. The trustee may get any excess from the sale, unless it was exempted.
