Can a lien be removed by a bankrupsy?

Sure. But if there is a lien against the property, it would be sold to generate the money to pay off the lien, even in bankruptcy. The lien secures or ties the debt to the property. If the amount generated doesn't pay off the debt, that amount becomes an unsecured claim in the bankruptcy and any other asset sold can be used to pay it off. Then if there is nothing else that can be used to pay your debts, and you still owe, the court may reduce or eliminate the rest.

If you have a home and you are buying a second home for investment is it better to refinance with higher rate or take a home equity loan?

Home equity Loans and Investment properties both come with high Interest Rates. However, if you were to claim bankruptcy with a rental property they would take the rental property and you can keep your home. Homestead law. On the other hand, if you file bankruptcy and have a second lien on your home you are still liable for payment and they would still take you rental property to pay off debt. (If their attorney is smart.) Depends on how stable your income is and if you have a chance of ever claiming bankruptcy. Ask yourself how big of a risk it is to get this investment property?
