A judgment can be executed against non-exempt property belonging to the debtor. Most creditors prefer wage garnishment or bank account levy. All states allow a debtor specific types and amounts of real and personal property that can be protected from creditor attachment. The most important one for homeowners is the homestead exemption. It would be in the best interest of a homeowner to be certain the primary residence is either protected automatically by state law or a declaration of homestead has been properly filed with the county recorder's office. The exemptions allowed for bankruptcy are the same as those that are allowed for lawsuit judgments, with additional federal non-bankruptcy exemptions available for use by debtor if the circumstances warrant.
