California Foreclosure Deficiency

California Foreclosure Deficiency Explained

What happens when a lender asks for a California deficiency judgment?

At one time, California banks were generous with second mortgages. And for homeowners, they seemed like a reasonable way to tap into a home’s equity for much-needed cash for education expenses, medical expenses and other financial needs.

When home values began a downward spiral, however, there was no equity left to pay off the second mortgage if the homeowner sold the home or if the home was foreclosed. In that situation, the most important thing you can do is face the reality of what is happening and seek experienced legal counsel.
