A creditor can freeze bank accounts in some instances. Generally, an outside creditor that is not the government can not freeze your personal bank accounts unless they have some court order allowing this. However, if the creditor is also your bank they may have "right of offset" written into their account agreements. This gives them the right to freeze funds or use the funds to offset a delinquent loan or to force the monthly payment. THIS IS NOT THE CASE FOR real estate LOANS IN "ONE ACTION" STATES SUCH AS California. In these circumstances a lender is only allowed to do one thing against you to get repayment. If they touch your bank account they loose to option of foreclosure. The IRS may levy your account for taxes owed. The amount of time these things take depends on the situation.
