Not unless you used your home as collateral to buy the 2nd home. If your home was not involved in the transaction they can not take it. Some states allow a lender to persue a borrower for defficiency balance if the foreclosed home sells for less than is owed, which means you could be sued and have judgments placed against you. Technically it is possible for lien to be placed on your home in some circumstances but it would be near impossible for a judgment to cause the home to be foreclosed (possible in theory but very very rare in practice). And filing for bankruptcy often foils even the most devious collector.

How can refinancing help me avoid foreclosure?

Refinancing can help you avoid foreclosure by replacing your current mortgage with a new one that has better terms, such as a lower interest rate or longer repayment period. This can make your monthly payments more affordable and help you keep up with your mortgage payments, reducing the risk of foreclosure.

What if your daughter bought a home with her grandmother as a co-signer she now faces foreclosure should she file chapter 13 bankruptcy how does all this effect her grandmother?

If the house is headed for foreclosure, anyone on the title and the mortgage is facing foreclosure, not just one of the owners. If the daughter was responsible for the mortgage payments by agreement with her grandmother, and got behind in payments, she may be able to pull the mortgage out of foreclosure by a Chapter 13, if she can afford the plan payments and the current mortgage payments. If the Chapter 13 cannot succeed without financial input from the grandmother, it will be up to her to let it go forward and lose the house. Either way, the fact that the house is in foreclosure will affect her credit score.

What are the causes of foreclosure?

non-payment of mortgage payments exceeding 2 to 3 months. If the mortgage company does not receive timely payments, they can decide to foreclose. Once they have made that decision it is very hard to correct. If you cannot make your payment call the mortgage company. Communication can go a long way to prevent foreclosure.
