What can we do to get another loan modification?

Giovanni Orantes
Answered by attorney Giovanni Orantes (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Orantes Law Firm
When your house is upside down, you may be able to eliminate your junior (second) mortgage in a case under Chapter 13 of the Bankruptcy Code. Please note that Chapter 7 does NOT eliminate the lien that makes your house the collateral for the second loan; so, you must eliminate it in a chapter 13 (or 11) case or the holder of the loan will continue to have the power to foreclose years later (at a time when the balance of the second will have grown through the accumulation of unpaid interest).

What will happen if I put a car under my grandson's name then filed for bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
If your grandson is a co-debtor (his name on the loan) on the car loan then he owes the money. If he is just on title then he does not owe the money. If he owes the money then nothing you can do about it.

If it is paid for or the net value is within the exemption you can keep the car. If you owe on the car you will have to keep paying the secured creditor.
