Can I file for bankrupcy if I co-own a house that my sister still lives in without losing the house?

Maureen O'Malley
Answered by attorney Maureen O'Malley (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Maureen O'Malley
Yes. She will then be responsible for the full price. This is assuming no equity in the house. If there's equity, the trustee could either sell or your sister could pay the trustee the value s/he thinks would be obtained by a sale. The creditor may mark her credit report showing the house as bankrupt, but they're not allowed to do that so you should tell her to check her credit report after you file and to make them correct that notation.

Yes. Fees and assessments that become due and payable post petition with respect to a debtor's interest in a dwelling unit that has condominium ownership or ownership through a share in a cooperative housing corporation are not dischargeable. While the pre petition fees and assessments are dischargeable, the post petition fees and assessments are not for as long as the debtor has a legal, equitable or ownership interest in the condominium unit or share of the cooperative.
