You should consult with an attorney before you sign anything. The bank needs your signature to complete the foreclosure but you should have the mortgage reviewed before you sign.

My husband purchased a home then added my name to the deed. Now we are in the process of foreclosing. What happens to my undivided half interest?
If your husband mortgaged his property prior to adding your name to the deed then you acquired your interest subject to the mortgage and the bank can take possession of the property by foreclosure. Your "interest" was encumbered by the mortgage. If you want to keep it then you must pay the mortgage.If your husband mortgaged his property prior to adding your name to the deed then you acquired your interest subject tothe mortgage and the bank can take possession of the property by foreclosure.

If i buy a home in my name while separated can a lien be put against it if my husband's home is forclosed on?
It sounds like you are not on the mortgage with your husband on your previous home. If he is foreclosed on, and you are only on the deed, then you have no financial liability. If you are buying a new home and you are on the mortgage with your husband, you won't be able to get a mortgage because you are on the verge of foreclosing Be careful when buying a home while separated however. Depending on what state you live your husband may be entitled to half the equity in your new home in the event of a divorce. Its called community property Here is a list of community property states: http://www.bankapedia.com/mortgage-encyclopedia/residential-mortgage-terms/121-community-property
