How soon after a foreclosure notice can your personal property be taken from you?

Personal property is not an issue in foreclosure proceedings. Perhaps you are confused about the definition of such. PP would be household furnishings, clothing, jewery, and so forth.

As to the time limit when the persons living in the foreclosed residence, that often depends upon the terms of the mortgage agreement and/or state statutes where the property is located. In some cases it can be as little as 30 days from the time of the eviction service or as long as a year. The final eviction notice will contain the exact date the property is to be vacated. If the order is not followed an officer of the court (usually a sheriff deputy) will remove the occupants in whatever manner is required.

Are banks allowed to foreclose on houses?

What are the purposes of the pittman-Robertson and dingell-Johnson acts?

The Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act, commonly referred to as the Dingle-Johnson Act, adopted by Congress on August 9, 1950, was modeled after the Pittman-Robertson Act, aimed at creating a similar program for the management, conservation, and restoration of fishery resources.

Funds to support the Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration programs are received from excise taxes on fishing equipment, fish finders, motorboat fuels, small engine fuels, and import duties. State agencies that sell fishing licenses are the only entities eligible to receive grant funds. Each state's share is based 60 percent on the number of it's licensed anglers (fishermen) and 40 percent on the size of it's land and water area.

Program funds are used by state fish and wildlife agencies for sport fish management, boating access, and aquatic education projects.

Who pays the tax lien in a foreclosure sale?

Caution: This is not legal advice and I am not a lawyer. This is general advice and there may be exceptions from state to state. I do, however, have extensive real estate experience.

The buyer of the property pays off any liens. This lien must be disclosed by the owner, otherwise, you cannot close on the home and the sale is null and void. If money has changed hands, all moneys must be returned. (although it is a royal mess that is very difficult to straighten out.)

You have applied loan modification with Bank of America and was denied three times do we still have a chance to get approve?

The amount of times you apply doesn't mean anything to the underwriter of the modification. He/She is looking for three things:

1) That you cannot pay your mortgage at the current rate according to your financial review

2) That you WOULD BE ABLE to pay ALL expenses if your mortgage payment was modified.

3) The reason you can no longer afford the house is due to an economic hardship (you've had a cut in pay, unemployed, etc)

Will it affect my credit if I short-sale a house that I own but do not have my name on the mortgage?

To conduct a short-sale transaction, the bank(s) holding the mortgage(s) have to agree to a short-sale. If your name is not on the Mortgage, technically you don't have a right to conduct a short sale.

Even if you "own" the house (which will be in question during the entire process), the holders of the Mortgage note(s), typically banks or finance companies, actually have primary ownership of the asset (the house).

If you are able to complete a short-sale, even though you are not on the mortgage note, as an owner the bank holding the note may ask you to take partial responsibility for the difference between sale price and mortgage value, or even to put in equity immediately to avoid a short sale situation. If this occurs, and you cannot pay, you will end up with a debt and a schedule to pay that debt. Adding any debt will negatively affect your credit score.

Is Ohio a non-recourse state for mortgage debt?

Type of lien that takes first position in foreclosure?

Could a pending foreclosure cause a bank loan to be declined?

Yes, if one got the loan after foreclosure proceedings began.

When banks make credit decisions, they want to consider as much up-to-date information as possible. If a foreclosure is coming up but is not on the credit report, the bank may grant the loan. Once the foreclosure shows up on the report, the bank will conduct due diligence and see if they would have granted the loan knowing about the foreclosure. Most banks would not and will call the loan, making you responsible for paying immediately.
