  1. According to my research, after a foreclosures home is marketed at a sale, it is common for that borrower to still have the remaining unpaid debt on the loan. There are many loan providers who make an effort to have all expenses and liens cleared by the next buyer. Even so, depending on certain programs, legislation, and state laws there may be some loans which are not easily solved through the switch of personal loans. Therefore, the duty still falls on the borrower that has obtained his or her property in foreclosure process. Many thanks for sharing your notions on this site.
