    hi
    i had a secured loan on a property but i no longer own this can i still be chased for this loan

    The secured loan would become unsecured when the property was sold, you can still be chased for this money. Are you considering bankruptcy? Please seek advise from one of the free debt charities.

    I just noticed the "six years ago bit", it MAY not be enforcable. Pop over to the debt free wannabee board and ask them, they know all about the six year rukle thing....unless any of you do?
    :D

    Lenders can chase mortgage shortfalls for 12 years, and I think secured loans would be treated the same. But it is something the OP should clarify.

    Don't ignore a problem. Unlike a bad smell, it won't eventually go away.
