If you file chapter 13 and have a foreclosure are you still able to obtain financing for a home?
Absolutely, there are many programs available to assist existing home owners as well as home buyers with financing home loans after bankruptcy and foreclosure. To obtain a home loan while currently in a chapter 13 bankruptcy it is very important to establish a good payment history. The company that will approve you for a home loan will need to have your payment history. They will also contact the trustee of your chapter 13 bankruptcy to receive permission or an ok to proceed with your home loan. To obtain a home loan after chapter 13 bankruptcy you will need to provide the following to your loan officer. Original schedules of your bankruptcy Discharge documents of your bankruptcy Proof that you have a satisfied discharge Proof that you have established new credit To obtain a home loan after a foreclosure. Maintained or established new credit Applying for an FHA Home Loan there is a waiting period of three years after the foreclosure proceedings have been completed. For Conventional Home Loans you will need to wait five years. Frank Thomas Sr. Loan Consultant www.lowermymortgageratestore.com 480-621-4270
Will filing for bankruptcy reduce the principles on student loans and mortgages?
No, filing for bankruptcy does not discharge or reduce the principle on student loans, though the bankruptcy process may put 'recovery attempts' on temporary hold. Regarding mortgages, filing bankruptcy will potentially discharge your debt, though you may lose your home unless you choose to file a Chapter 13, which will allow you to consolidate debts and retain your home if you so choose.
Can you lease your home after chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Yes
Can tax liens be dismissed under Chapter 7 or Chapter 13?
Even if you discharge a tax debt in a bankruptcy (which can be done in limited circumstances), the lien associated with that debt is not released by bankruptcy proceedings. The result is that you may come out of bankruptcy with no tax liability, but there may still be a lien on your property. That lien attaches to any equity in your assets that existed prior to the bankruptcy and was exempted in the bankruptcy. For example, if you owned your house and filed bankruptcy with $20,000 of equity in your home, you may have been able to exempt that equity in the bankruptcy through a homestead exemption (so that you could keep your home). If that happened, after your bankruptcy was discharged the IRS would still have a lien against you that attaches to that $20,000 of equity (but not to any equity that accrues after the bankruptcy filing).
Is it possible to buy a home after filing chapter 13 then chapter 7 bankruptcy?
Yes, it is possible but there are circumstances. Time is a big factor, that is how much time has passed since the chapter 7 was discharge? I know of lenders who will provide loans just one day out of bankruptcy. But a fairly decent credit score has to be there and if its a refinance there has to be some equity in the property.
Are there any penalties or fines for selling your home after bankruptcy?
Not after the bankruptcy has been discharged. If the person is participating in a chapter 13 bankruptcy they must have the permission of the trustee/court to engage in any major financial transactions.
If I file Bankruptcy-7, will I be able to keep my 401k/ my home/ and my cay?
Chapter 7 is a liquidation bankruptcy, you are giving up your assets. If you want to keep your home and car you would need to file a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.

You can file either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 as a homeowner. If you are trying to save the home from foreclosure, then Chapter 13 would be the proper chapter.
Can you keep your home if you file chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Can you file for chapter 7 bankruptcy if you have equity in my home?

It depends on which "chapter" of bankruptcy you file. I suggest you speak with an attorney to see what you can do.
Student loans and bankrupsy.can they be discharged?
Student loans do not go through the discharge procedure, only bankruptcy's. A discharge takes place six months from the date you filed for bankruptcy. Then you have to wait two years from the date of discharge to apply for a home loan.
