implications of foreclosure on 2nd trust deed


Posted by eric on July 22, 2008 at 13:43:01:

My house is about to be foreclosed and I understand in light of the debt foregiveness bill passed earlier this year I shouldn't have a 1099 on the amount the bank losses (home is owner occupied) but I also have a 75K equity line of credit that was taken out. I live in California so what will be the tax implications on this 2nd mortgage? Is there anyway to avoid paying taxes on this? Thanks
