Yes, a reverse mortgage does not have credit requirements. you can use one to pay your way out of a bankruptcy, or one right after a bankruptcy. However, the bankruptcy court does have to approve the reverse mortgage if you are in the process of doing one or still paying on one.

But it would be unusual to own a property (certainly one with any value/equity) that could have been used to pay debtors in the BK.

Yes you can get a reverse mortgage after a bankruptcy if you have equity in the property. Various state homestead exemptions can protect equity in the primary residence. See related link for a state listing.

A reverse mortgage is typically unaffected by bankruptcy. Only in a case where you want to surrender the home would the bankruptcy court be involved on any mortgage product other than to dictate terms of repayment of defaulted payments. with a reverse mortgage there are no payments so that would not be an issue.
