In most cases you have to wait until that chapter is discharged. New mortgage, new debt? Well, real tough - not impossible. Especially with the concerns over subprime lending in todays market (which you by being in BK more than likely would be under most any view). You would have to expect that you would pay a very high interest rate, likely making it something even people with stronger financials wouldn't consider.

Make sure you discuss anything your doing with the BK trustee. Entering into a refinance or any financial contract without his explicit approval will end BK protection, and is sometimes prosecuted as fraud. Certainly, if it means you would have less disposable income to use toward your outstanding debt, he would have rightful objections.

And consider....your in BK, presumably because you have more debt than you can pay, and you haven't been able to handle finances very well.....you cannot borrow you way out of debt, but even after clearing that in BK, you can sure find yourself in it again.

Sold mobile home on purchase agreement still owe on mobile home buyers filed for chapter 7 what are my options?

The question is a little fuzzy, you have not stated if the Buyer(s) are still occupying the home. Also filing for Chapter 7 BK, may stop you from collecting your payment today, but the Buyer(s) will need to either reaffirm with you or move.Unfortunately, if the buyer does take the home and/or debt into Chapter 7 BK, you are out the money, to include back payments while they were living in the home. You will be sent a letter from the court giving you a chance to address the court on the debt. You may have information that may keep the Buyer(s) from filing Chapter 7, but you would need to attend court to find out.
