You start by speaking with your case trustee/adminstrator. He must be involved by the terms of your case and agreement.
Are you referring to a Chapter 13 bankruptcy confirmation hearing?
Unless the house was owned free and clear by the debtor, the trustee does nothing. The mortgagee forecloses and auctions the house off. If there was no mortgage, the trustee will either sell the house or auction it off.
A chapter 13 involves a plan you and your attorney have proposed to the creditors for them to object or not and the court to allow if no objections are filed. The C. 13 trustee does not "force" you to do anything, other than propose a fair plan according to your income and expenses
Can you include a house in state a in a Chapter 13 if you are a temporary resident in state b?
That's a decision that is made by the BK trustee. The participants of a chapter 13 bankruptcy must get the permission of the trustee for all major financial transactions.
If you are in a chapter 7, you cannot sell any property without permission from the court and the knowledge of the trustee. Get a lawyer if you do not have one.
You file a motion to convert to chapter 7. If you are eligible, then the court should grant it.
If I file chapter 7 or 13 how long can I stay in my house?
Its not your house, GET OUT!!!!!!!!!!!,,,,, until you get A legal notice.
i wouldn't sell it but instead invest in it till it adds value
No
Your house is part of the bankruptcy estate and you will need permission from the court before selling it. You must also review the specific terms of your Chapter 13 plan to see what additional terms and conditions might apply.
