: If the house doesn't sell for the amount owed at the sheriff sale, can they take my other assets? (2nd house, car, seize my accounts) I live in Illinois.
************************
Not an attorney but according to the forums chart on State Foreclosure laws Illinois does allow a former borrower to be sued for the difference.
Now how often that actually happens...in most areas not alot. If you don't have the money to bill the mortgage, why would you have money for a deficiency judgement.
But if they find that you have other assets... maybe.
