Not really because the money is technically yours. However, if you are one of the good guys you should, in good faith, contact the co-signer, both of you go to the banking institution you have the loan with and go over the contract. Make the co-signer part of this. Legally, you don't have too, but if you are trustworthy why wouldn't you?

I agree with Marcy that if you are trustworthy and have been making all of the payments without help from the co-borrower why wouldn't you include them in the sale?

Another thought to keep in mind though is if the co-signer or co-borrower is on the Warranty Deed, you would have to have their signature to sell.

What happens to the first mortgage on a condo in Florida when the condominium association forecloses for unpaid association fees?

For the condo association foreclosure to be valid, the bank who holds the mortgage must be notified of the foreclosure action, and the mortgage company has the opportunity to do a couple of things: They can pay the delinquent condo fees themselves, to protect their own interests, and force the borrower to pay them back. If the borrower is unable to repay the condo fees, it could put the mortgage payments in default, and be grounds for the lender to begin foreclosure proceedings. If the borrower is behind in their mortgage payments, the bank can join in the condo association's foreclosure action themselves. This is actually a great assistance to the bank, as it saves them the time and trouble of initiating the lawsuit - they just get to piggy-back on the condo association's foreclosure, which makes the foreclosure sale happen that much sooner. And since the bank's lien has priority over the condo association, the bank would be the one to get paid off first if the property got sold to a third party at the foreclosure sale, or if nobody bid on the property, they would be the ones who would become owners of the condo. If, for whatever reason, despite getting proper notice, the bank does nothing and the condo association forecloses on the property. The first mortgage holder has a lien that always survives the condo association's foreclosure. In fact, second mortgages are usually superior to the condo association's lien for unpaid maintenance fees. Usually the condo association gets stuck with owning a property with at least one outstanding mortgage with an outstanding mortgage balance greater than the actual value of the property because of the decline in real estate value. Most condo associations allow the first mortgage holder to foreclose on the property after their foreclosure is done. The main point is that in Florida a condo association foreclosure has no effect on the first mortgage.


Can you walk away from a condo mortgage without having mortgage company and association org garnishing your wages for pmts?

Not all mortgage companies seek a judgment after they foreclose (often called a deficiency action). They are less likely to do so if they believe you have no assets to go after, since it costs money to file the action and takes a long time to collect. Often, though, mortgage companies sell off the ability to seek a judgment to collection firms that specialize in deficiency actions, and the collection firm and the mortgage company split whatever is collected from the borrower. Your best bet would be to enter into a "Deed In Lieu of Foreclosure" with the mortgage company, and ask them to specifically guaranty that they will not seek to come after you for any additional money. In a deed in lieu of foreclosure, you deed the property back to the bank, and vacate the premises voluntarily. You may not have this as an option in all states, or if you have any junior mortgages or other judgments that are affecting title to the condo. If you are delinquent in your condo fees, it may also make your mortgage company reluctant to enter into a Deed In Lieu, since they would have to pay any back condo dues (this is as opposed to when a bank acquires the condo through foreclosure, where they are not always obligated to pay all delinquent condo dues).
