I live in Ontario, Canada. I purchased my home a little over 2 yrs ago. Around June of this year I ran into some financial difficulties and missed a payment. My payments are high as I was recovering from bankruptcy due to separation 13 years ago. In September I accepted a position out of the area and was hoping that the sale of my house would remove the financial stress. However, at the same time the mortgage company decided to proceed with legal action and threat of foreclosure. I made an agreement with the mortgage company through their legal firm to be given 60 days to sell my house and maintain my $2100/mo payments for September and October. It doesn't look like my house is going to sell and I don't know what options may be available to me with this issue outside of filing bankruptcy again, which I would like to avoid. However, having said that, if I was to file bankruptcy, should I wait until the foreclosure or should I go ahead now and will the bankruptcy encompass the money that I may owe after the mtge company sells my house re shortfalls? I have about 1 month left before I must vacate the premises per my agreement with the mortgage company. Because of the payments and paying for living accommodation outside the area while I work, I haven't had the money to try and find a new rental residence. I will, literally, be out on the streets by November 12th. Is there anything I can do to prevent any of this?
