If a residential property in New Jersey is foreclosed, does the creditor under NJ law have the right to collect for deficiency?

Answered 8 years and 10 months ago by Anthony Van Zwaren (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
Unfortunately, unless you have received a notice from the creditor, you may still be obliged to pay rent to the current property owner. If so, make sure you pay by check or money order or receive receipts because you may need to prove to the creditor at some point if they seek to evict you for non-payment that you made payments for the rent to the landlord and that any non-payment of the mortgage was the landlord's fault not yours. If there is any contact from the lender to you make sure to contact any managing agent or attorney to arrange where and how payments should be made.... Read Answer

Contact your original bankruptcy attorney and ask him to send a letter to the creditor for the creditor's violation of the bankruptcy discharge order. Another way to do this is by sending a copy of the Bankruptcy Discharge Order to  Equifax and letting them know that the debt was prior to your bankruptcy filing. I am assuming that is the case. If your bankruptcy case was a non-asset case then the debt is discharged whether listed or not. The case is called JUDD v. WOLFE 78 F.3d 110 (1996).... Read Answer

If the debt is more then ten years old, you have a defense; statute of limitations and laches. In addition, what you might have received is a summons, not a subpoena.  The best thing to do is to contact an attorney to discuss strategy in reference to the age of the debt.

You should immediately contact a local consumer rights attorney.  Most consumer rights attorneys offer free initial consultations.  You should discuss your current situation, to determine how best to proceed. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature. No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information. Furthermore, this does not represent the views or opinions of LexisNexis or its affiliated companies. ... Read Answer
