Hi all, if you have to sell home at end of TD, is there an order by law on who gets paid first? what i mean is would the mortgage be paid first then any secure loan then the rest go into TD? Would the mortgage company have a say on how much it was sold for?
Thanks!
That's right am123456, mortgage then secured loan then unsecured creditors via trust deed. The mortgage company might have a say - certainly if they were not being paid off in full.
Alternatively, the trustee may agree that the mortgage lender sells the property themselves.
The mortgage company would only have a say in the sale price in 2 scenarios:
1. When they are fronting the repossession action;
2. When a sale will not achieve a sufficient price to cover their debt
Please also note that the Trustee's remuneration take preference over unsecured creditor debts, however this should still leave plenty left for unsecured creditors.
