in cases where an indemnity insurance is in place (indemnifying the lender ,in case the morgage holder defaults on payments) the lender chucks you out and claim on the insurance.In case there still a short fall they will try coming after you.they did that with me,writing letters to a previous address saying ...we need to speak to him for a very serious matter,in big bold writing.I told the people at the house if anyone calls tell them I went to the brasilian jungle.I never replyed to the letters of the lender as they were send about 6 years after the reposession.I believe a debt ceases to be a debt 6 years from the last time it was asked for,which ,in plain english means,if you are ''untracable '' for 6 years ,that's it !!!This was brought on as a rule when someone we all have to thank for took abbey to court about it and won !!! cheers to him,google for more info ! |

Now I know if it happens to me.
Problem is you don't lose the house only. You lose the legal fees paid, stamp duty at one percent of purchase price, you lose the cash deposit which took such a long time to save. So eevrything will amount to a loss of many tousand of Pounds. It's a total DISASTER for the family !! |

Unless you file bankruptcy to extinguish the debt, it stays until the person who owes it DIES, and then it may be collected from the estate of the deceased. There is no statute of limitations on debts. The statutes of limitations only affect the means one is able to use to collect the debt. |

HI IZO, Just asked my hubby and he says the debt will go on for ever and the only way to avoid it is by going bankrupt or having an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) with your creditors. |

Your account is held on your credit file for six years from the time you receive the County Court Judgement (CCJ). After this you can apply to have the account removed from experian and equifax, but this should be done automatically. As for bankruptacy, laws in the UK have changed, it used to be 7 years now your only bankrupt for 1 year and then the debts are wiped, however, you can not have anything on credit and all assets have to be presented to the court for which you are filing bankrutcy with. |

Take this from someone who has been there, the mortgage company can pursue the debt for twelve years.
They can request the money after that, but will have a hell of a job when you tell them to whistle! |

in the US, statute of limitations;
7 yrs. if the mortgage firm stays hounding you, offer to sue them
for harassment and record their
conversations.
and send a letter to the BBB.
if necessary, find out where they
are and start leaving messages
on the employee's cars. |

Iv never heard of a mortgage company chasing after the repossession cos they get their money back otherwise they wouldnt sell it for the amount it is sold for
But....for arguments sake::-
The figures that are being thrown at you are.......7 years (actually it is six years and one day) where A debt can no longer be enforced......12 years where the same applies but where property is involved it is 12 years |

My husbands aunt and her husband were in your situation many years ago, he didn't want to file for bankruptcy so he had his house repo'd he paid a small amount each week right up until the day he died and then the money owing to the lender was taken from any insurances/life policies. To be honest if it were me I would file for bankruptcy I know you have trouble borrowing when you do this but this is only for 7 years not your entire lifetime.
The Very Best Of Luck To You and Your Family What Ever Your Decision x x |
