Bankruptcy lawyer at Theodore N. Stapleton, P.C.
You could file a chapter 13 and ask for a hardship discharge of student loans but it is uphill battle.

Technically it is allowed, but I do not recommend it. There are some issues, but they tend not to come up.

How does go about Bankruptcy Chapter 7 and Mortgage Reaffirmation?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Michael Burton McFarland (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Michael B. McFarland, PA
If you did not reaffirm your mortgage, your liability for it is discharged so the lender cannot come after you personally, although it can foreclose on the property. You can wait until a foreclosure occurs before moving, or you can discuss a deed in lieu of foreclosure with the lender, which may (in some cases) give you some financial assistance in moving (sometimes called "cash for keys") in order to save on foreclosure costs. There's no benefit to you in participating in a short sale, unless the lender is willing to allow you to stay there, rent-free, to allow time for the short sale. In any event, if you are giving up the house, there's no point in making any further payments. Save your money to cover moving costs, first & last on a rental, etc.
