If our house goes into foreclosure can the banks still get their money from you ?
foreclosure is a conditon where a lender (the bank) acquires title to and uses the value of the property to offset the outstanding balance of the loan.

What is the house foreclosure process?
Foreclosure is governed by state law, different states can observe different foreclosure procedures. In foreclosure, the lender, mortgagee, automatically becomes full owner of the property when a borrower, mortgagor, defaults. The borrower can still pay the full amount and get the house back during the redemption period. If the money is not paid back, you will lose the ownership of the house. Then the house will be sold at a public sale or auction to pay for the full loan amount, if the sale is less than the amount owed, you will owe the difference.
Before foreclosure on a house with a number of liens exceeding the buyer's offer Can you as the former homeowner sell it to prevent it going into foreclosure?
You can sell the house, but you are still on the hook for the remaining amount of money. And the banks may not want to allow the transfer, because they wish to have the property secure the loan balance outstanding. A purchaser wouldn't like to buy such a piece of property, because the danger of foreclosure at the sale might still exist. Without paying the liens, you cannot provide clear title to the property. Most lenders will not lend on a house that is being foreclosed upon. You may be able to reach an agreement with the lender about the sale in view of the foreclosure, but the liens will still need to be paid.
What are the pros and cons of a short sale verses a foreclosure?
Both a foreclosure and a short sale will ruin your credit for many years. With a foreclosure, it's best to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy to protect you from the lender. The lender has up to 10 years to come after you for the loan deficiency. For example, if you owed $200,00 on a mortgage, and it cost the lender $75,000 to re-sell your property, you could be liable for that $75,000 deficiency. On a short sale, the lender can still come after you, but the amount that is short can be issued to you on a 1099 as a "loan forgiveness" causing you to pay income tax on that money.

If your house is forclosed on are you still responsible for keeping insurance on it?
http://articles.latimes.com/2007/oct/28/realestate/re-qa28 This article says: The lender is on the hook. When people are making their monthly mortgage payments, very often the insurance premium is wrapped into that payment. But when the homeowner stops making payments, those insurance premiums aren't being paid. When a property goes into foreclosure, the lender or bank is notified that those insurance payments become their responsibility. Question: So, at what point is the lender on the hook in the foreclosure process? Answer: It depends on the situation and when the lender is given a notice, but generally the lender has time to arrange insurance. It is possible some lenders weren't covered, but it's unlikely.
