Shouldn't the payments remain the same since the loan is in fixed terms?

Daniel A. Edelman
Answered by attorney Daniel A. Edelman
Bankruptcy lawyer at Edelman, Combs, Latturner & Goodwin, LLC
Assignment of a loan does not change your obligations. Make sure that none of the loans were subject to deferral or forbearance. Request an account history of each in writing.

Can we refinance or sell our home after the bank made an error in reaffirming our loan after bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
Your desire to reaffirm does not commit your lender to offer you a reaffirmation. If you want to apply to refinance your property, you should be checking out your credit score & speaking with local lenders about the qualifications needed to obtain a new loan. If two lenders have turned you down, you should find out why.
