What is the Status of Mortgage after Bankruptcy?

John A Moffa
Answered by attorney John A Moffa (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Moffa & Breuer, PLLC
The answer is that the note and mortgage still govern the transaction. All that has changed is that the lender can only look to the property for payment, not to discharged debtors. So the lender can still raise or lower the payments, pursuant to the Note and foreclose if the terms of the agreement are not complied with. You are correct that your personal obligation to pay has been discharged. You can certainly sell the property and payoff the balance of the mortgage, but I would only recommend this if you are going to get money from the sale. Why try to short-sell a property that will inconvenience you by showing it when it does NOT affect your credit rating and does NOT get you any money. Banks seem leery to refinance these properties, but why a NEW lender wouldnt give you a mortgage if all other criteria is met, is a mystery to me.

If you do not have, or are not claiming a homestead (exempting your primary residence), then you can apply the wild card exemption.  You can also use your $1,000.00 exemption under Article X, Section 4 of the Constitution.

Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Helene Ellenbogen P.S.
If the bankruptcy was granted 5 years ago, you can't file again until 7 years have gone by since the last one. If it was not granted, you can file.
