California is a community property state, so you have a community interest in both houses at the very least. If there is equity in the 1st house over the allowed Homestead exemption, and in the 2nd house over any Wildcard exemption, one or both of the properties may be available to the Chapter 7 trustee for liquidation to pay your creditors. Depending on the equity, a Chapter 13 might be a wiser choice for you. Make sure to see a competent lawyer who knows how to protect your assets.

Bankruptcy lawyer at Love and Dillenbeck Law
First, you can always block any number on your phone and refuse any call. As for your bankruptcy, creditors are not allowed to call once they get notice of your filing. If you filed a bankruptcy case, I tell my clients to get it about 3 to 4 days for notice to be recieved by the creditors. After this, any calls recieved are in violation of the automatic stay. Unfortunately, I can't answer when you will recieve your discharge without knowing what chapter was filed.
