Non Purchase Money Mortgage

Non-Recourse Mortgage States and Anti-Deficiency Statutes and How It Affects You as a Property Owner

If your property is located in a non-recourse mortgage state, and if you default on the mortgage, the lender may not sue you for the deficiency if the foreclosure does not generate enough proceeds to repay the loan.

Non-Recourse States include:

Alaska, Arizona, California, Connecticut,

Idaho, Minnesota, North Carolina,

North Dakota, Texas, Utah, Washington

However, each non-recourse state has its own anti-deficiency laws that prohibit lenders from seeking deficiency judgments. In some states, the statues only apply to certain loan types. For instance, in California, the laws only protect the borrowers with the “purchase money” loans. This means that the loan must be used to purchase the property. Therefore, mortgage refinances does not meet the requirement.

Most states’ anti-deficiency statutes also protects only homeowners, which generally mean the properties were occupied as primary residence at least six months prior to foreclosure proceedings. Better news for Investors or second home owners – some lenders don’t pursue judgments all together in non-recourse states. It does not worth the resources (attorneys, staff, offices, etc) for lenders to take few investors and second home owners to the court.

Foreclosure or a trustee sale, as compare to short sale, may also reduce your chance of being sued in non-recourse states. This is especially true in “One Action States” (or “Single Action States“) which will be discussed in more details later.

In summary, you are best protected when your property:

1. was located in one of the non-recourse states
2. was a primary residence
3. loan was the original purchase loan (not refinanced)
4. was foreclosed (trustee sale)

The best advice we can give now is to seek professional legal help that is specific to your state and your situation; And always negotiate away deficiency judgment with your lender before proceeding.

Mortgage $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A mortgage is a security interest in real property held by a lender as a security for a debtusually a loan of money. While a mortgage in itself is not a debt, it is the lenders security for a debt. It is a transfer of an interest in land (or the equivalent) from the owner to the mortgage lender, on the condition that this interest will be returned to the owner when the terms of the mortgage have been satisfied or performed. In other words, the mortgage is a security for the loan that the lender makes to the borrower. This comes from the Old French dead pledge, apparently meaning that the pledge ends (dies) either when the obligation is fulfilled or the property is taken through foreclosure. In most jurisdictions mortgages are strongly associated with loans secured on real estate rather than on other property (such as ships) and in some jurisdictions only land may be mortgaged. A mortgage is the standard method by which individuals and businesses can purchase real estate without the need to pay the full value immediately from their own resources.

Wraparound Mortgage $76.47 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A wraparound mortgage, morecommonly known as a wrap, is a form of secondary financing for the purchase of real property. The seller extends to the buyer a junior mortgage which wraps around and exists in addition to any superior mortgages already secured by the property. Under a wrap, a seller accepts a secured promissory note from the buyer for the amount due on the underlying mortgage plus an amount up to the remaining purchase money balance. The new purchaser makes monthly payments to the seller, who is then responsible for making the payments to the underlying mortgagee(s). Should the new purchaser default on those payments, the seller then has the right of foreclosure to recapture the subject property. Because wraps are a form of sellerfinancing, they have the effect of lowering the barriers to ownership of real property; they also can expedite the process of purchasing a home.
