If we did not reaffirm on mortgage after filing Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, can we walk away from the mortgage?

Answered by attorney Steven Jed Alpers (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Steven J. Alpers, A Professional Corporation
I can only tell you that the mortgage company would have to give you a 90 day notice and then a 20 day notice before the sale of your house. Maybe you should consider talking to an agent, maybe the one who helped you buy the house, to see about the possibility of a short sale. The mortgage company cannot go after you personally, the took the house and land as security for their loan so they could only take the house and sell it. By the way if you can do a short sale you should be able to get at least $3,000 for moving expenses.
