Attorney fees added to mortgage balance?

[Skinsfan]

I saw this little blub...

A secured creditor may add the attorney fees they incurred to the balance owed on the property. This may happen even if you are not behind on payments at the time the bankruptcy is filed. Most mortgages and other loan documents provide that reasonable attorney fees are allowed and will be added to the balance due on a loan.

This happens quite often. Terms of the note that was signed dictates this.

You said in another thread that you have an apartment lease. Do you also own a home?

Separated from my spouse. Our primary residence is held tenants by the entirety and would thus be exempt from creditors, but I'm still on the mortgage note and would have to notify my loan company as they are a creditor.
