What happens to a second mortgage when a home is purchased at a foreclosure auction?

I am going to bid on a house at foreclosure and it has a 1st mortgage of $280K and a second of $70K. The lender on the first two mortgages is Decision One Mortgage. The lender at foreclosure is Countrywide. Does this mean that if I buy this house at foreclosure that I will own additional money to the second mortgage or just the first mortgage and back taxes?

When a senior lien forecloses, a junior lien is wiped out.

So if the first mortgage holder forecloses, the second trust deed goes away. If the second forecloses, you’ll still owe the first.

Oftentimes, if a senior lien forecloses, the junior lien holder will send a representative to the auction to defend its interests by making sure the property goes for enough to pay the junior lien as well. Or they buy it themselves with the idea of reselling. Costs money, yes. But better than losing their whole investment.

What reverse mortgage company I work?

I've been looking at this a lot lately but am having difficulties to decide which company to work. Anyone working for – or have a reverse mortgage – you can recommend?

No, but before taking a reading HUD.GOV all about them and AARP. You can not undo what was stuck with them for life. Since you are young enough to use the Internet who are too young to see your entire future. I will not consider one before 85 because so much can happen between 62 and death. You may be widowed, remarried, decided to move to a more warm or cheaper, move in a statement of objections, to live with children or do not want a house and want to go to an apartment. With the reverse mortgage will not have many options as they have to pay the debt before it can move.
