The rules about reaffirming a HOUSE are totally different from the reaffirmation rules relating to a CAR. So don't read on the internet a comment saying they could take the car, and then think that means they could take your house. Instead, take a look at the section of the bankruptcy code that governs reaffirmation. You'll see in there that reaffirmation agreements are for PERSONAL property (like cars, furniture or jewelry). Your house is not personal property, it's REAL property. Completely different animal.
