Yes, you can sell your home after a relief to stay is granted, but you should consider the specific circumstances of your case. If the relief to stay is related to a legal matter, such as bankruptcy or foreclosure, you may need to address any restrictions or obligations that apply to the property. It's essential to consult with a legal professional to understand any potential implications on the sale process.
Yes.
Because they want to sell the property and go after you for the deficiency. At least they will get something on the debt.
No, the government on the other hand will provide some debt relief so that I am able to stay in my home
Repossession actions are governed by state statues.
No.
You can't, unless the liability is for fraud. You can file a motion for relief from stay, but it will not likely be granted. Unless the court grants you relief from the automatic stay, you cannot proceed. The liability will be discharged.
Hard question to answer since...foolish me...I thought CREDITORS asked for relief from stay...a debtor would never want one to be granted and would normally oppose it strongly. (Relief from Stay STOPS the protection of the Court and law that prohibits creditors from proceeding with collection actions, like repossession or foreclosure or garnishment against the debtor). Not understanding that basic difference really means you really should have professional help in the case.
In my case you have 30 days on South Carolina
The motion for relief from stay only affects the creditor's right to proceed against the property that secures the debt. The creditor's right to be paid any deficiency after sale depends on the kind of bankruptcy. In a 7, no. In a 13, it depends on what the other unsecured creditors are getting.
That would be determined by state statutes. You need to consult with a your attorney ASAP. In some states the mortgage lender can foreclose within 30-60 days.
Filing a bankruptcy automatically "stays" almost all actions against the debtor. It gives the debtor a temporary hiatus from actions by creditors although it is not permanent and as the procedure progresses the debtor's property may eventually be distributed. A creditor's lawyer, especially a foreclosing bank, can seek a "relief from stay" by filing a motion with the court. If the motion is granted the creditor can go ahead and foreclose on the property and sell it to satisfy its debt. That usually happens when there is no equity in the property.
The best approach would be to work with the Creditor's attorney to come up with some kind of agreement. You can also move to have the stay reimposed or ask the Judge to reconsider lifting the stay. If the motion for relief from stay has been granted, you no longer have a defense. The time to raise a defense would have been right after the motion was filed by obtaining a hearing date and opposing the motion. The creditor is not required to negotiate with you, but you should at least try again.
