Although your bankruptcy left you in the position where all the lender can do to you is foreclose, homeownership comes with additional responsibilities after a bankruptcy ends, and those ongoing responsibilities cannot be avoided by your bankruptcy. For example, property taxes, HOA dues, community maintenance requirements, property liability.

Can the lean holder file suit against the co-signee?

Answered by attorney Alan Emmerson Ramos (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Alan E. Ramos Law Offices
In California, most mortgages are resolved by non-judicial foreclosure (sale of the property at auction). By taking that action, the lender does not have a deficiency claim against a co-signer. However, if there was a junior lien (2nd or 3rd) that was eliminated in a foreclosure, they could sue the co-signer. The co-signer should see an attorney so that the facts of this particular matter can be analyzed.
