How does surrendering your house in chapter 7 affect your credit report?
If you are surrendering your house anyways, it is usually better for your credit score if you do it through bankruptcy. If your house is foreclosed on before you file bankruptcy, then your credit score is hit by both the foreclosure and the bankruptcy. If you let your house go back through bankruptcy, instead, then your credit score is only hit by a bankruptcy.
Can you file bankruptcy to stop a foreclosure if your name is not on the mortgage?
No, sorry, that wouldn't help a bit, and just damage your credit score.
If you just divorced and already have foreclosures and repossessions on your credit report will filing bankruptcy help your credit score?

What factors can negatively affect your credit score?
Factors that can negatively affect your credit score include late payments, high credit card balances, applying for multiple new credit accounts, and having a history of bankruptcy or foreclosure.

If my credit score was 750 after a foreclosure why is it?
Either the foreclosure is not reporting for some reason, or you were not on the loan. Many married couples share an ownership interest in the house but do not share legal liability for the mortgage. Immediately after a foreclosure is reported you should not have a 750 score.

How many points will a foreclosure reduce your credit score?
Depends on credit score prior to foreclosure. If your score was higher before foreclosure, it might drop 200 points or so. If it was lower before foreclosure, it might drop closer to 100 points. It varies significantly.
