I am not an expert by any means, but from what my attorney told me, I would definitely not do this. The trustee could decide that you must take the proceeds of the sale (given that you have enough equity) to pay your creditors. I am in the same situation, and I was told to wait until the discharge. Of course, you may still be able to put your home on the market but just make it a stipulation that you cannot close until one day after your discharge. I'd be careful though and wait until you're close to your discharge day to do this. Good luck! No, it could be viewed as an attempt at a fraudulent conveyance, especially if the home is not fully protected by the state or federal homestead exemption. Also a BK is not finalized at discharge, it is finalized when it is closed by the court, which in some cases can take up to two years or more. Your best option is to consult with the attorney handling your bankruptcy on any financial transactions that are being considered.
