Can I file for bankrupcy if I co-own a house that my sister still lives in without losing the house?

Answered by attorney Javed Inam Ellahie (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Ellahie Law Firm
You can co-own but the issues is what is YOUR equity in the home and whether the amount of equity exceeds the exemption amount allowed under your State law. If it does , there is no issue but if there is equity the trustee can obtain by selling the house, paying your sister her 1/2 then the trustee can ask the court to make such an Order . Your sister has the right to oppose it and if she is able to convince the court that selling the entire home will be an undue hardship on her, she may prevail.
