      They will both go after you. My guess the 1st mtg will go after you first. The late payments will start showing on your credit report at 30 days late. The foreclosure will show on your credit report at the time the bank gives you the move out notice (end of the foreclosure proceedings). It will show on your credit report for 7-10 years.

      Banks look at the last 2 years for late pays and 4-5 years for BK’s and foreclosures.

      If you obtained both loans to purchase the house, the banks can take the home but that is all.
      If you refinanced or added the 2nd later, they have the right to go after you for any money they lost. They would get a judgement and you could never buy a new car for Zero % Financing Specials. It would take them 18 months to do it. That is why they seldom do it. But they could./
