What are my rights regarding the bankruptcy for my house?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Roger J Bus (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Debt Relief Law Center
Please contact your bankruptcy attorney, ask for specific information. If you rejected your mortgage in bankruptcy, and never reaffirmed on the mortgage debt, the debt was discharged in your Chapter 7. You can live in the house until it is foreclosed on, the foreclosure process completed, and you then taken to court for eviction as holdover tenants. How long that process takes is totally up to the mortgage company- they can get you out sometimes as soon as 9 months after filing bankruptcy. Some mortgage companies act very slowly to get their property back- and yes- some take YEARS to do it. Save up your money, live for free as long as you can, and be prepared to move out someday.

How do I go about bank accounts in Chapter 7/13 conversion?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
You are skating on very thin ice. You need a bankruptcy attorney and simply cannot be helped much without one. Converting from a 7 to a 13 is ridiculous. When you file a 7, the trustee can seize any assets that are not exempt. The trustee will probably seize both bank accounts, and anything else that is not exempt, or try to make a deal with you.

Am I eligible for filing chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Jeffrey Alan Cogan
Answered by attorney Jeffrey Alan Cogan (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Jeffrey A. Cogan Chartered, a PLLC
I am unsure if your average per month is $11,465 or that is the total. Presuming it is per month, you probably would have to be in a Chapter 13 repayment plan. There are things that a good attorney can do to reduce that income calculation and if you are a family of four or more, there is a chance to be in a Chapter 7. Finally, if you do make that much per month, it would be better to hire a lawyer and negotiate that debt down. Depending on who is collecting and what it is for?
