west asked:

person responsible for paying the mortgage is not paying on time, he dosnt want to put the mortgage on his name nor he wants to sell the house. ,what are my options, should I tell mortgage bank that they should call him and take off my name from mortgage, what are my legalities and rights since deed his on his name and he doesnt return my calls. he is a mortgage officer and he knows everyone in real estate proffession from attorney to agent, I am getting very scarred as I m getting calls every month from mortgage company that my mortgage is due, as he is already one month behind.
Month of april alreday shows on my credit report as a late payment. please someone help me with a professional advice.

well, he is an investor not living there (mortgage officer), he is the one approved my loan for this house, his friend find me this house (real estate agent), the house is in NY, and both are in NY . I have nothing to do any thing with NY, I am from NJ, this Mortgage officer is my cousin !!! , initially he told me that you have nothing to do but sign the papers and i will get you good chunk of money in 3-4 months, i dont know what comes to me and i signed the papers.
I dont know how can I go about and what to do, initially he forge the papers to approve for loan (he put his address as I am living there in NY, my income level is also showed as 10 times which i make, thats a long story), I didnt take any money from him matter of fact I have paid 3 mortgage payments from my pocket, he promised me orally that he will give me back my money once He sold the house, we didnt have any written contract. It is a 2 family house and both floors are rented. rent is not covering the mortgage.
he puts his name on deed, but the mortgage is on my name, i dont know if deed and title are the same papers.

shirishnayna asked:

I have a home worth about $325,000. On this home, I have a $150k first mortgage with WaMu, a 2nd mortgage (home equity line with Chase) with a $200k balance and a 3rd mortgage (another home equity line with Harris Bank) with a $150k balance. The first mortgage (and taxes/ins) are up to date but I cannot afford the payments on the 2nd and 3rd mortgages due to being placed on disability. If I keep my first mortgage payments up to date, can either Chase or Harris Bank seek to foreclose on the house? The reason I am wondering about this is there is no equity in the house for the 3rd mortgage holder (Harris Bank) and the 2nd mortgage holder (Chase) would have to pay out the 1st mortgage holder before they would recover any money for their outstanding balance. Given the current state of the real estate market, i am not even sure I could sell my house for $325k. My hope is that over a lifetime, i can pay the 2nd and 3rd mortgages after I pay off the first mortgage in 10 years.
