    In line with my study, after a foreclosures home is sold at a sale, it is common for the borrower to still have the remaining unpaid debt on the loan. There are many financial institutions who aim to have all fees and liens repaid by the next buyer. Nevertheless, depending on specific programs, restrictions, and state laws there may be a number of loans which are not easily sorted out through the shift of lending options. Therefore, the duty still falls on the consumer that has acquired his or her property in foreclosure process. Many thanks for sharing your ideas on this site.
