Frequently Asked Questions

Does the lender profit from foreclosure?

Mortgage companies can indeed make a profit if they foreclose on properties with equity, however, this profit is contingent upon various factors such as market conditions and associated costs incurred during foreclosure proceedings. If these factors align favorably, meaning sufficient equity exists and costs are manageable, then lenders stand to gain financially from such situations.

After foreclosure: who gets your equity?

If there is positive equity and sufficient proceeds from the sale after covering debts and costs, you might receive some funds. However, in most cases of foreclosure, especially during economic downturns, homes sell for less than their market value or just enough to cover existing debts. Therefore, once foreclosure occurs and if there are no proceeds left after settling debts with lenders, the bank effectively takes control of your equity, leaving you without any financial return from your investment in that property.
