 TITLE: How Do I Remove a Mortgage From My Credit Report After a Divorce? CONTENT: A Clean Break\n-------------\nAfter a divorce, despite what your decree may say, you're liable for mortgage debt with your name on it. If payments are not being made as agreed, your credit will suffer and the lender could pursue foreclosure to take your home.\nThe better option would be to refinance the loan, sell the house or pay off the loan. In any of these cases, you'd no longer be liable for the debt, and the record of the loan would remain on your credit reports in good standing. And that could help your credit scores. END
