What options are available to owner to repossess rental house from non-paying tenant who has filed ChapterThirteen bankruptcy and continues in possession of rental house?

While I'm not certain how, if at all, his filing bankruptcy controls your options - for sure - it isn't a repossession. That is done when someone defaults on a mortgage and that process changes ownership of the property to the mortgage holder. The mortgage holder then has to evict and take possession of the property.Presuming he hasn't paid his rent (if he has, you have no cause for action), that last step - eviction - is what you have to do with a non paying tennant.

Is it legal for a repossession agent to tell the borrower's neighbors that they are there to repossess the vehicle?

According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, no this is not legal. According to this act, the debt collector must contact you only, or if you are represented by an attorney, they may contact the attorney. The only time a collector may contact any other person, is to find out where you live, your phone #, and where you work. Maybe think about filing a complaint with the Federal Trade commission. Their email is www.ftv.gov
