Can I sell a house after the loan wasn't reaffirmed?

Susan Green Taylor
Answered by attorney Susan Green Taylor (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Susan G. Taylor
Absolutely! You have all benefits of ownership after filing Ch. 7 bankruptcy regarding your home, even though you didn't formally reaffirm that debt with the lender. You simply had no personal liability after your Ch. 7 discharge, that is, had you defaulted on the loan the lender could not have sued you for a deficiency. If you can't sell the house but need to relocate for a job or have found a better deal, you can stop making payments & let the home be foreclosed without fear of being sued for the difference in what you owe & what the lender recovers at the foreclosure sale. Hope this was helpful.

You are essentially judgment proof, as you have nothing that a judgment creditor could get.  Therefore, bankruptcy is not needed.
