Four for homeowners to deal with this but there are new people on the block.

She was rejected for a loan modification in -- now in default.

My parents own home is paid for and they are worried it could be at risk can my parents transfer my sister's home to me.

To protect their house little complicated we know.

-- had no because bottom line is -- is that because they cosigned for the loan.

A lot of times it happens -- is people get panicked and and they start transferring property.

But as long as your name is still on the original note from the mortgage if you start transferring all does -- transfer title.

It doesn't take your name off the obligation under the note so bottom line is that is not a good move.
