Re: Use an escrow as the payoff intermediary.

In Reply to: Foreclosure - 2nd lien removal posted by andrew on December 01, 2001 at 11:06 AM

: Home currently under foreclosure. Interested in keeping property. After foreclosure sale there will be no equity left to pay-off 2nd; therefore, offered 2nd lienholder less amount then originally owed and plan to reinstate 1st mortgage. 2nd Lienholder agreed to proposal but requires I send a check in the agreed amount, and they will coordinate with mortgage department to release lien (approximately 10 days processing time). Foreclosure sale is scheduled for late January and I am worried 2nd lienholder might delay process and keep money without settlement. What precautions should I take to ensure the process works seamlessly (2nd released then 1st reinstated)? A little aprehensive on sending check prior to getting agreement from bank to release lien on 2nd mortgage. Thanks for any help?

Andrew, why not escrow the payoff of the 2nd? It?s a common transaction that would make sure of you would be getting what you bargained for.
