Foreclosures - What happens to the owner?

John Cashin

Hi, i'm just curious as to what happens to the owner of the foreclosed home. I'm assuming, for one, that his/her credit goes down the tubes. But what else happens? Are they "free and clear" of the property, or does any money they make after the foreclosure still owed to the bank? If their credit does in fact go down the drain when foreclosing, are they likely to lose all of their current credit cards as well?

i'm just trying to better understand the position of people who may at sometime foreclose - and i think this information would help.
