Yes, a mortgage can be released in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, but it typically depends on the specific circumstances of the case. While Chapter 7 can discharge personal liability for the mortgage debt, it does not eliminate the lien on the property itself. If you choose to keep the home, you will need to continue making mortgage payments; otherwise, the lender can still foreclose. It's advisable to consult with a bankruptcy attorney to understand the implications for your situation.
Your mortgage should have been included in your chapter 7 discharge. If it was- then you are no longer liable for the mortgage, but the lender can still foreclose on the property. If the mortgage was not included- then why wasnt it included.

Yes, you can include your home mortgage in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, but doing so does not eliminate your obligation to pay the mortgage. If you want to keep your home, you must continue making mortgage payments. Chapter 7 bankruptcy can discharge unsecured debts, but secured debts like mortgages remain intact unless you choose to surrender the property. It's important to understand the implications and seek legal advice if considering this option.

Yes, if your equity in the house is greater than the exemption you can use and you cannot pay the trustee the difference, or if there is no mortgage on the house and its value is more than the exemptions. If you are current with your mortgage when you file and get behind on your mortgage during the chapter 7, the mortgagee can foreclose. Consult a local bankruptcy lawyer.
