Hi,
Last year I lost a home I owned to foreclosure I had a first mortgage and then I took out a HELOC on top of that as a second lien. I recently got in the mail from a collection agency stating that they want to collect the 78K that I owe on the HELOC. My question is, I thought it was a securitized loan that is only secured by the home. If so they cannot come after me, or can they? Should I be worried about them garnishing bank accounts or wages? Or is it just an attempt to get whatever they can by hoping I'm just an ignorant guy?
Thanks in Advance, you guys do a heck of a job.
