What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut

Hello,

I lost my job and have missed two mortgage payments on a condo in CT. I am most likely headed for foreclosure. Can the mortgage company seize or sue for any of my assets i.e. - cash, securities, car etc?

I have owned the unit for 3 years and put 10% down. I am underwater as far as selling. Units in the same building are sellling for 80k below what I paid back in 2006.

Thank you.

The lender could potentially seek a deficiency judgment. This makes it important for you to do a workout with the lender, even if it ends with a short sale or a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Make sure you fill out the MEDIATION form that came with the summons. This will allow you to meet with the lender and a mediator to attempt a work out. You may also want to seek advice from a HUD approved housing counselor: 800.569.4287
