What happens if a foreclosed home sells for more than the mortgage balance?
August 28th, 2008 By Peter G. Miller
If there is a surplus from the sale it will go back to the owner — but don’t forget that the lender will want not only the remaining loan balance but also the fees and costs associated with the foreclosure.
Please see an attorney immediately to determine your rights and leverage if you face foreclosure.
