Avoid Deficiency Judgement, From Short Sales With Full Recourse Loan, In California
From Guest Writer Angella Raisian’s Blog.
This legal chart is intended to provide a quick and easy guide to determine when a borrower may be liable for a deficiency judgment in California. There are other factors and conditions which may change the result (such as fraud by the borrower and bad faith waste). For more details see the legal article, Deficiency Judgments and California Law. Find out the rules on deficiency judgments of non-recourse loans in California short sales, and read about the newest Short Sale law that may stop lender recourse for deficiency. Readers who require specific advice should consult an attorney.
* If a senior lienholder forecloses on the property, the “wiped out” junior lienholder who no longer has a secured note may not sue on this promissory note for those categories indicated in the chart.
