Can our 2nd mortgage company attach our wages once our home is sold as a short mart?

Our 2nd mortgage company is suing us for $25,000 (the balance on our 2nd after they signed off the lien for the short sale). They enjoy submitted paperwork to attach 25% of our wages until it is paid off? Is their any officially recognized way out of this?
Answers:
Nope. If there was a permissible way out, they would not have be able to get the garnishment.

The lone way out is to quit your job. Then, when you attain your next job, they can attach to that income. Is near a reason you feel you should know how to steal from them?
Hi Tammy,

Unfortunately, signing off on the lien doesn't release you from the liability of the mortgage. Sorry :(
If however, you are selling the house because of financial misery, it would be better to get the 1099. It is actually a 1099C which is considered income and does parallel on your taxes. Having said that, you can file "insolvency" which would allieviate the tax burden from you. (This is not export tax advice - seek professional charge advice - disclaimer, sorry).
It would also be a good Idea to check your states law about foreclosures, some states are actually endorsement temporary laws to help out homeowners.

It will be up to a judge to want if it is legal or not. Now that they no longer have their warranty, they are entitled to get their money back within other ways.

You may need to get an attorney to protect your interest, and even next, you may not be able to stop it. He might be able to negotiate a costs plan in lieu of garnishment.

If you miss any payments, though, the garnishment will be re-instated.
No. Look, if they hold out you a plan whereby you are able to repay that money over a period of years short interest, feel lucky! What they could do is send a 1099 form to the IRS grossing up your income for this year cause you to pay a lot more within income tax. So don't walk away, work near them on this one. You promised to pay and if the proceeds from selling the place aren't sufficient enough to cover both loans, afterwards you will need to work at paying it off. I surface your pain, I'm a Realtor and trying to sell my home on a short public sale. Source(s): appraiser/realtor
Not unless you can work out a payment plan, but I doon't know as though you would be successful in that route, since the 1st loan be sold short & didn't pay off the 2nd.

The bright side is you shouldn't receive a 1099-C on it since it's individual repaid through a deficiency judgment & writ of garnishment.
None that I know of you legally owe them that money.
