Just keep in touch with the lending institution to make sure nothing negative rubs off on your credit. A good relationship with the lending institution will be quite helpful in the long run. Recognize that if the primary borrower files bankruptcy, some lending contracts can be called in requiring that the entire amount be paid in full. If that occurs, make sure you keep in touch with the lending institution and let them know that you'll either pay it off or refinance.

Since he is not listed as a borrower on the first mortgage his credit is not affected by paying or not paying that mortgage. Even if both loans are with the same company, he is only held responsible for the loan in which he signed.
Contact the credit card company and explain your circumstances. Whatever the problem, you are 100% responsible for the debt that person has incurred. Cancel their credit card (should have been done immediately) and pay off their debt! If you are fortunate enough to have your own credit cards after all this and have a good credit rating and you are paying off this person's debt then your credit rating will not be altered in any way. DON'T COSIGN FOR ANYONE! Marcy
