Effect of One Concurrent Ownerโs Encumbering
the mortgagee can foreclose only on the mortgaging co-tenantโs interest. If a joint tenancy is involved, a mortgage (in a lien theory state) or lien does not sever the joint tenancy, but a foreclosure sale will.
Note, however, that in the case of a joint tenancy, a mortgagee or lienor runs the risk that the obligated co-tenant will DIE BEFORE FORCLOSURE extinguishing the mortgageeโs or lienorโs interest.
