If you are facing foreclosure there is a good chance that you may end up owing your lender money after the foreclosure is complete. The laws vary from state to state so you will want to speak to a real estate attorney about your rights and possible consequences of a foreclosure.

You may be able to negotiate a short sale with the lender to avoid owing money after the foreclosure. A "short sale" is when you negotiate a lower pay off amount then what the lender has actually issued.

Sometimes lenders will issue a "deficency judgement" lien in your credit report for the amount that was unpaid at the end of the process. This varies from company to company.
