It doesn't. The homestead exemption protects property from being seized in a bankruptcy procedure or by creditor judgment. The lender does not relinquish the right to foreclose on property regardless of the status of the bankruptcy filing. Bankruptcy only temporarily halts the foreclosure of secured property.
It depends. Depending on the interest of the Trustee in Bankruptcy, and whether or not they have abandoned the property, will determine whether or not the debtor in Bankruptcy will be permitted to take the property if the creditor has abandoned the property. Bottom line is that it depends on the facts, contact your Bankruptcy attorney or a reputable Bankruptcy attorney to get more information.
No property can be sold, transferred, refinanced, etc. while in bankruptcy without the permission of the bankruptcy court.
If by "property limit" it is meant what personal and real property can be exempted from bankruptcy, that is determined by the type of bankruptcy you must file, federal or state. To discover what the type and amount of property one is allowed to exempt you can search federal bankruptcy exemptions or (name of state) bankruptcy exemptions; in a few states the person can choose to use either set of exemptions or a combination thereof.
Yes
No. The title to the property is encumbered by the bankruptcy. You would need the court to release the property in order for you to be able to sell it. You should discuss it with your attorney.No. The title to the property is encumbered by the bankruptcy. You would need the court to release the property in order for you to be able to sell it.

In a US bankruptcy, you will have to turn over all property of the estate. Out of country assets are property of this estate.
Yes; Noth Carolina has property tax.
The answer to this question depends on whether you are filing Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, if the rental property has equity, meaning that the value of the property exceeds what is owed on the property, the trustee would almost definitely seize property and sell it to satisfy some or all of your unsecured debts.
Thank you for passing your property to my son. Since I do not have a son, I guess it remains in limbo. If your son paid you the value (equity) of your home, you will have to disclose the transfer, but it will have no effect on your bankruptcy. If you gave the property to your son for free, and there was equity in the property, probably two years, if you gave the property knowing you were insolvent and intending to deprive your bankruptcy estate of the asset. It would have been better to discuss this with a bankruptcy lawyer before passing the property, as you might have been able to exempt the property in the filing.
The answer to this really depends on the nature of the property and how it is held (i.e. tenants in common, joint tenancy). You can file for bankruptcy for your personal debts. If the ownership debt is easily severable then it is likely that you would be able to file for bankruptcy and include the property as well.
Sure.
