How do you get out of co signing on a property?
The only way to remove yourself from the obligations of co-signing a loan is to pay off the loan and refinance it in the primary borrowers name. Until that happens you are fully responsible for paying the loan if the primary borrower fails to pay.The only way to remove yourself from the obligations of co-signing a loan is to pay off the loan and refinance it in the primary borrowers name.

If you are a co-borrower not a cosigner are you responsible for repayment of the loan?
Yes, a co-borrower is as responsible for a debt as is the primary borrower. The main difference between co-buyers and cosigners is that a cosigner generally does not have any claims to the property in question but bears the responsibility of repaying the debt should the primary borrowers default on the agreement.
As co-borrowers do both credit scores count?
not always, in most cases whoever makes the most income is the primary borrower on the loan and the co-borrower is usually there for extra income and not their credit score.
Primary borrower on loan?
I recently co-signed for a loan for my brother. The dealership not only put me in the primary borrower position (which was a mistake), but since then there have been payment issues. So it has been my phone ringing off the hook. Even as a co-signer (non primary borrower) I would have been responsible to make the payments in the event the primary borrower did not. I understood that. However, if you are applying for a loan being the co-signer does make a difference rather than being the primary. Typically, to be a co-signer you will have to prove (by showing the payments being made from a co-borrowers account) that they are making the payments or it will affect your DTI (Debt to Income ratio). Also as the primary YOU will get the calls if there is a late payment - in my case they did not even have the co-borrowers phone number. This really doesn't mean anything except that I had all of the pain for their being late on their payments. My credit has been negatively affected. SO IF you are going to be the primary borrower - be sure that you are willing to make the payments.
If your cosigner defaults on other loans but you are making your payments can they repossess your vehicle?
No. You are the primary borrower and are honoring your financial obligation.
Are a primary borrower and a secondary borrower on a car loan equally responsible for the loan?
Yes, the cosigner/co-borrower has the same legal responsibility to repay the debt/loan as does the primary borrower. If the primary defaults the creditor can attempt to collect from the co-borrower before the primary borrower.
What is the definition of a bank?

Can you describe the three ways capital is transferred between savers and borrowers?

You are attempting to establish credit in your own name your mother is co-borrower on your student loan Will it show on your credit score?
It will only show on the primary borrowers credit report. If the primary defaults on the loan then the responsibility falls to the co-signer. In brief, if the loan is in good standing the primary borrower will have it on their credit report only. If the loan is late or is defaulted it will be reported on both the primary and co-signers report.
How can you sue the borrower to pay a loan you cosigned?
You can sue the primary borrower in civil court. The amount will determine which state court will hear the case. You can visit your local court for more information relative to your jurisdiction.You can sue the primary borrower in civil court. The amount will determine which state court will hear the case.

What are the rights of borrowers when the cosigner is considering a lawsuit to force them to take a second mortgage so the cosigner can recover money paid because the mortgage was defaulted on?
The cosigner has the right to file a lawsuit against the primary borrower's to recover his or her financial losses due to the defaulted lending agreement. The procurement of a second mortgage does not seem viable if the primary borrower's credit was not originally sufficient for them to obtain the loan without the need of a cosigner. It is more likely the house will have to be forfeited by means of foreclosure and the cosigner will have to try to recover losses by other means. The primary borrower's best choice is to obtain legal advice as to what their options are before a lawsuit is filed against them.
Would a cosigner's name appear in the credit bureau?
Yes. A co-signer is fully responsible for the debt. If the primary borrower doesn't make the payments it will be reflected on the credit record of both borrowers. If the primary defaults, the bank will go after the co-borrower for payment. That is the purpose of having a co-signer. The co-signer guarantees the debt will be repaid.
