Short sales and recourse status

By
Real Estate Sales Representative with Area Pro Realty NorCal

I looked at the web discussions about recourse and non-recourse loans and then opened the textbook. Purchase money loans are non-recourse..even if junior lien. Subsequent loans and refis not protected by anti-deficiency measures.

The big gap in textbook and discussion on web.. 80/20 purchase money scenario that used a credit card type HELOC as the second purchase money loan. Is the HELOC recourse in this situation if the 1st position lender forecloses non-judicially?

My query regaards CA only.
