Is the first person liable or is credit jeopardized if first person is on the title and mortgage, second person is on the title only and goes bankrupt

Lorena Lee Saedi
Answered by attorney Lorena Lee Saedi (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Saedi Law Group, LLC
As long as the mortgage is still being paid the first person on the mortgage will not be affected by a title holder filing for bankruptcy.

How do I go about purchasing a car after my chapter 7 discharge?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kathryn Ursula Tokarska (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Kathryn Tokarska
If you can afford to pay the purchase price without getting a loan then you don't need a car loan. A potential lender will check your credit and want to know your Debt to Income ratio to find out if you can afford the type of car payments based on the amount of loan. Some lenders won't approve if your credit score is not excellent and others will but at a higher interest rate than someone who has excellent credit and/or had not filed for bankruptcy recently. I advise my client to be most careful about acquiring new debt after bankruptcy. Whatever you purchase and finance should be very affordable. You want to rebuild your credit with new positive marks like making timely payments, never being late, etc. not bog yourself down with an expensive loan that may prove impossible to pay on time. Sometimes, it may be better to buy a little beater for a few months if you can find one that is fairly dependable, have a mechanic inspect. You can maybe save some money and then in a year or two or when major repairs come up turn it in for something newer and more expensive. Maybe in the meanwhile you can save up a nice down payment. Just an idea.

We bought cars for our children, can we keep those cars

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
Whether you can keep any assets in a bankruptcy case depends on the following factors: 1.  Which Chapter you file; 2.  The value of the asset 3.  What exemptions are available to you to protect those assets under applicable state or federal law. A comprehensive consultation with a bankruptcy attorney in your State will yield the answer to your question.
