What to do when you hold a second mortgage and the people have not paid in 4 months?

Absolutely start the foreclosure process. If the first mortage is also in default, then you run the risk that they start foreclosure before you. If that happens there is a good possibility that your mortgage will be wiped out. The only way to avoid this, in most states, is to purchase the house at foreclosure. For most private mortgage holders this is not a realistic alternative. Typically foreclosure can take several months. By delaying further you insure that your losses will be compounded. Keep in mind that you can always stop the foreclosure process.
