In a chapter 7, yes, you can keep your vacation if you have no equity in it. This assumes you have not run out and borrowed money against it knowing you were going to file bankruptcy. In a chapter 13, the equity is only relevant to the amount to be paid to the unsecured creditors. You don't "lose" the property.
As an unknown individual at the Doney & Associates law firm surmised, "there is no real Chapter 20, but we bankruptcy attorneys amuse ourselves by proving that we can add." A Chapter 20 is when you file a Chapter 13 right after a Chapter 7. One reason some people do this is because you cannot stop a home foreclosure with a Chapter 7, but you cannot file a Chapter 13 if your unsecured debt exceeds a certain dollar amount. So, if someone's home is being foreclosed but their unsecured debt amount exceeds the limit for a Chapter 13, those persons may file a Chapter 7 and wipe out the unsecured debt, then file a Chapter 13 and stop the home foreclosure. Some Courts frown on Chapter 20's since they see it as an unfair manipulation of the bankruptcy code.

Sure.
Chapter 7 is a liquidation bankruptcy, you are giving up your assets. If you want to keep your home and car you would need to file a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.
It depends on which "chapter" of bankruptcy you file. I suggest you speak with an attorney to see what you can do.
You can file either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 as a homeowner. If you are trying to save the home from foreclosure, then Chapter 13 would be the proper chapter.

The type of bankruptcy that you file all depends upon your personal case. If you have little in the way of assets and a lot of unsecured debt, then Chapter 7 is likely going to be the Chapter to file. If you are trying to save a home from foreclosure or reorganize other types of debt, then Chapter 13 would be your best choice. Consult with an attorney to make certain you are filing the proper Chapter for your particular case.
Probably not, but it depends on the value of the home and the exemptions available to cover that value.Consult a local bankruptcy lawyer.
The answer depends on the type of bankruptcy you file and the value of your home. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you may be required to sell the home unless it falls within certain exemption limits. In Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you can typically keep your home and create a repayment plan to catch up on missed mortgage payments. It's best to consult with a bankruptcy attorney to understand your specific situation.
