For sale with no reposnse, what can I do now with Bank of America
My home has been on the market for 9 months with no traffic - the market is really depressed right now, and values have declined considerably. We paid $420 for the home with a $320K first mortgage and an $80K second. I don't know for sure what the home would bring, but I would guess it would be well under $400K. My ex-husband moved out 3 years ago and signed a quit-claim deed, but he is still on the mortgage. Of course I lost his income (he now has to pay rent elsewhere) and I have subsequently had a 50% reduction in income (I am in a real-estate related field). I moved out in January, but have kept the mortgage current as I am trying to hold out until the home can sell. I have spent thousands of dollars in re-painting, repairing and cleaning this home in an effort to make it appealing to buyers, but to no avail. I am just about out of money and am considering bankruptcy. I really really need to try to protect my ex-husband's credit (this is not his fault), but I have to get some relief and need to be able to pay rent on a smaller scale. How can I (and my ex-husband) get out of this mess?

I'm sorry to hear about your hardship. First off bankruptcy will protect you untill the judge discharges your debt and or dismisses it. If you have a sale date on your home it will automatically continue to get postponed. To expedite things all I would need is your loan number to find out who the underlying investor is on your loan. Every investor has their own guidelines on what they are willing to do. I hope this helps so send me your loan number and I will let you know what the status is on your specific loan.
