After foreclosure can the 2nd mortgage holder come after me for the balance in Colorado?
I had a property go to foreclosure in Colorado with 1st and 2nd mortgages. The 2nd is now trying to settle and has been calling and mailing me for the past 8 months. Can they collect? Should I settle or should I just pay an attorney to make them go away. They are out almost $80k and I didn't file bankruptcy.
These are all the mortgage walkaway trustee sale states, meaning they are non-judicial foreclosure states.
In those states, generally, when they foreclose on you, they cannot pursue you for their financial losses.
Many, such as California, do in theory allow a lender to choose judicial foreclosure but in those cases the lenders only do so if a borrower has significant other assets. This is the "one action" rule that lets the lender either pursue non-judicial foreclosure, at lower cost and less time, or judicial foreclosure that costs more money and takes more time but lets them go after you for their financial losses.

Idaho
Mississippi
Missouri
Montana (as long as non-judicial foreclosure is used)
Nevada - note that the lender CAN get a deficiency judgment (See below)
New Hampshire
Oregon
Tennessee
Texas (but even in a non-judicial foreclosure, the lender can pursue a deficiency judgment)
Virginia
Washington
West Virginia
____________________
From what I understand if a trustee sale already took place legally the 2nd lender cannot exercise it's right to recourse. The only way they can have recourse action against you is if they had a judicial foreclosure that went through the court system.
The lender will try to bully you and make you think that they can come after you to squeeze what ever money out of you they can. The only way they can come after your assets is if they have a court hearing and obtain a judgement against you. Even if this were to happen you could claim bankruptcy and have it cleared.
There is a lot of information available about this on the internet. I recommend you do as much research as you can before contacting an attorney. Attorney's are very expensive and may not be necessary in your case.
The first step you should take is finding out if your property went through a judicial or non- judicial foreclosure. If it was non - judicial the 2nd lender has no legal grounds to come after you and they are just trying to scare you into giving them money.
Good Luck!
I used their service a couple months back and they consolidated all my debt and lowered my total debt 40%.

What are some lenders with the lowest mortgage rates for Colorado?
I am looking for a FHA 30 fixed loan and want some lenders with the lowest rates. It is usually around 6% but if you have a lender that can offer lower I want to know. Please only Colorado lenders because each state has different laws.
Unless you have a fixed-rate mortgage, the current mortgage interest rates are very important to deciding how much you should pay every month<!--therefore it is always a good idea to keep an eye on what the rates are doing. If interest rates should rise, so will your monthly payments and again, if interest rates were to fall, so would the amount you would have to pay.

Monthly repayments made on your mortgage and the amount that was borrowed, is determined by current mortgage interest rates. Different-->companies offer different interest rates so it is a good idea to shop around for the best deal before settling on one particular lender.
What is the lowest mortgage rate in Colorado right now?
I have a great credit score of about 780, I am a first time buyer making about $55K/yr, and the loan will be for about 215,000, 30yr fixed. I've been working through a financial planner who claims to have relationships with all the big banks, and he told me last night the best is 5.75, and I think he charges one point at closing. Any advice would be great!
After looking at the all the major players and searching for the lowest rate the best i see 30yr fixed is 5.50 without having to buy down the rate.
a 10 year ARM is coming in at 5.375%
i dont recomend going below a 7yr ARM this gives you a low rate and flexability down the road without a huge risk!
many fanancial planners are brokers i would at least look at other offers to see who gets you the absolute lowest rate without buying down the rate!
Dude, hit lending tree, and any other local broker you can find. They have relationships too and some of them are better. It's not up to us to ensure you've done your due dilligence on your first home purchase, so do your own homework.

Bad Credit Mortgage in Colorado....is it possible or should we just file Bankruptcy?
We are looking to purchase our first home in the Denver area in about a year. We both have bad/old credit(both of our credit scores are below 600) Our income will be around 75k(I am finshing up nursing shool)
We are trying to see if this is even possible or if we should just be content renting for several more years.
We are expecting a higher interset rate. I have heard of "B loans" & "sub prime lenders" and have been trying to look into them.
We are trying to decide if we should just file bankruptcy now and see if our credit gets better or if it is possible to get a loan?
Will we need 20% down with this bad of credit, or can filing bankruptcy help that?
Filing for bankruptcy won't help your credit score... it will make it worse. Keep renting, repair your credit. Talk to a loan officer at a bank or credit union about how to improve your credit. Take their advice.
Loans are based on several things. Your credit history, your length of employement at your current job, your debt-to-income ratio, the value of the collateral (in this case property) compared to how much you want to borrow, AND your 'character' as perceived by a loan office.
You don't always need 20% down payment... sometimes that amount can be a second loan.
Bankruptcy is not for 'convenience' sake. It is SUPPOSED to be for those who can't repay their debts due to some significant situation which IS BEYOND THEIR CONTROL. It will NOT improve your credit rating. It will NOT improve your chances of getting a loan and it will NOT improve the terms of any loan you get.
Repair your credit rating. You created it yourself...fix it yourself. It can and has been done.
Are you looking for a great mortgage company in colorado?
this is not spam or an ad-they where GREAT to work with....
I looked them up. No complaints with the BBB, of FHA. They have been in business a little over 7 years. 9 branches in Denver and across the U.S.
Has anyone used Colorado Federal Savings Bank for a mortgage? If so are they a good bank?
You are likely dealing with what is called a "net branch" of that company. A net branch is a broker that decides to affiliate with Cofedbank, agreeing to send 80% of their business there. I don't think that there's anything WRONG with Cofedbank, but you would likely do better going to a broker who has the freedom to send every file where it will benefit the customer (in this case you) the most - rather than agreeing to send 80% to one particular lender.
