Can you sell your home in chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Don't sell the home without legal council. It'll be impossible to re-buy later (given the scant information I have at hand).
Can you sell your home if you are under chapter13 bankruptcy?
Yes, but you must get permission from the Court. You do not technically own the home while you are in the bankruptcy - it is property of the bankruptcy estate. Speak with an attorney about your specific situation. If you can not find an attorney, contact your local Bar association and they will refer you to one.

If you file bankruptcy in one state and own a home in another state may you keep it?
Bankruptcy is filed in "Federal Court". It doesn't make any difference where your assets are. The only time you can hold out is if your assets are outside the U.S. and the bankruptcy court doesn't know about them.
If you filed bankruptcy would your house be foreclosed on?
If you file for bankruptcy the court will be in charge of finding a fair settlement. They can require the person in bankruptcy to sell their primary residence if that is the main asset of value. The rules vary by jurisdiction. Independent of the bankruptcy the lender who has a loan secured by the property can foreclose and force the sale of the home if the payments are not made as agreed. A bankruptcy does not release the borrower from keeping up the payments on the home loan. As most loans state, if you fail to keep up with your payments your home is at risk.

If you filed bankruptcy and have decided to sell your house Do you have to let the realtor know about the bankruptcy?
If you filed for bankruptcy and the title company knows about it, then you cannot sell your house. Your title is not free and clear so a buyer could not purchase. It also depends on the bankruptcy, you should talk to your lawyer.
If you purchase a new home prior to bankruptcy is your new home part of the bankruptcy?
Yes, of course.
Can you sell your property in bankruptcy and what happens to the funds of the sale?
Yes you can sale your home but the bankruptcy court will take the proceeds from the sale and disburse them to your creditors that you owe. No, everything except your selected exempt property belongs to the bankruptcy estate, as of the moment you file, and it can only be sold by the bankruptcy trustee, with permission of the court, to satisfy your debts in an orderly fashion.
