If your house is repossessed it will usually be sold at auction. Any mortgages or secured loan will be settled from the equity and the balance will then be passed to you.
If there is not enough equity to settle all the secured debts, you will still be liable for the shortfall.
The bank has up to 12 years to chase this debt. Some building societies choose not to, however you should get some advice.
