We are about 6 months from being discharged(Approx $5K balance). We have been in BK since January 2001. Our home has been refinanced in 1997 and in 1999 trying to use debt consolidation (obviously which didn't work). The loan currently is a 10.75% ARM.
No you can refinance right now.
You can refinance now if you there is equity in your home to do so. It is very important to know that only the very few in the mortgage broker business know how to do this loan successfully. First ask do they have special access to court records #2 do they understand the court system and how to work with the trustee and the attorney. Then who ever helps you must know the proper lenders to go to for you and third make sure their fees are reasonable. Here is a site to go to for more answers www.chapter13refinancing.com
