Can I file bankruptcy on a rent to own home?

David Alan Kubat
Answered by attorney David Alan Kubat
Bankruptcy lawyer at David A. Kubat, Attorney at Law
You can file a bankruptcy to remove delinquent rental payments on the home you live in, but you will probably have to give up the contract you have to apply your rental payments towards the purchase of the home. Which type of bankruptcy you file (Chpt. 7 or Chpt. 13) depends on other factors, such as your income, your assets, and whether you have filed a bankruptcy in the past. You should consult a bankruptcy attorney in your area.

Would my husband have to start building credit all over again? Would we ever be able to obtain another mortgage?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
Letting the property go into foreclosure will create another credit ding, although you might not be aware of it because it will not be available on your consumer credit report. But creditors have access to more information about you than just your consumer report. Furthermore, since you didn't file bankruptcy, you could be responsible for paying any loss the mortgage company may take when they foreclose. A short sale may be the solution, but look for a realtor with connections at your mortgage company.

What can I do if I can't pay judgment due to hardship?

Answered by attorney Gregory J Wald (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Gregory J. Wald
You could make a settlement offer if you have the funds, or you could file for bankruptcy protection and eliminate the judgment (assuming that it is the type of debt that can be discharged in bankruptcy.)
