Your current HOME is safe, however any other investment properties might be fair game.
Yes, since it is an investment property they can come after you for the deficient amount. They can lien any property, seize any bank funds, but they can’t garnish your income if SSI is all that you have.
This is not handled the same as it would be if your home was foreclosed on. You were given money to invest, and you will need to repay it. They may have to wait and take it from your estate, but they are entitled to be repaid.
For less than the short of it sells for less than the short of it sells for less than the amounts owed when you move to sell it and the payments you cant seize someones house or horse so even though they might slap lien on your best bet would seem to take over the short of nuisance than threat.
