Can you keep your home but include an equity line of credit on your home in a bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Walter F. Benenati
Bankruptcy lawyer at Benenati Law Firm A Professional Association
Yes, when you file Chapter 13, if your primary home is appraised at below what you owe on your first mortgage, a judge can declare the second mortgage / equity line of credit unsecured and thus, eliminate it after the completion of your Chapter 13 payment plan. Keep in mind, you cannot eliminate the second mortgage in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. A Chapter 13 is a reorganization of debt through the Federal Government and can vastly improve your situation by addressing your current debt, possibly eliminating the second mortgage of your home, and at least in my Federal District, even modify your first mortgage.

Whether or not you are disabled there is no work requirement for persons filing chapter 7. Before filing be sure that you pass the means test. The schedules I and J will list all current income and expenses. If there is no excess income you are allowed to file chapter 7.

If your previous case was filed before May, 2004, you need to immediately consult a bankruptcy attorney and consider filing another Chapter 7.
