What else can I help you with?
If you did not get your mortgage reaffirmed does this mean you will lose your property?

What can you lose in bankruptcy?
This is largely dependent on the chapter of bankruptcy that you're filing under. Is it for an individual? Is it for a business or a corporation. I will take the most common type of bankruptcy-Chapter 7-for an example. Under Chapter 7, the bank is technically allowed to take personal assets and property and liquidate it/them in an attempt to pay back debtors. But there are a number of exemptions and for many people, they do not lost personal items after filing for Chapter 7. Common exemptions when filing for bankruptcy include tools of the trade-such as a car that is used to commute to and from work-and clothing under a certain dollar amount. The article below lists many of the possible exemptions for different chapters.
What happens if you lose your job after filing Chapter 13 with a wife who works a mortgage and two car notes in Ga?
If you are unable to make the mortgage payments, you will lose the house to foreclosure- there is nothing you can do at that point.

Which chapter bankruptcy do i file?
If you have to ask...it absolutely should be which ever one your LAWYER suggests.If you have to ask...you probably can't do the filing properly anyway...and will not get the result you think, or is best, and may well commit errors, even criminal ones when filing.Answer:Usually you would want to file a chapter 7 if at all possible so that you don't have to be pay on a plan for three to five years. On the other hand, sometimes you have to file a chapter 13, and sometimes it is best to file a chapter 13 so that you won't lose property that you would otherwise lose in a chapter 7. Most chapter 7 debtor's don't lose anything in a chapter 7, but it just depends on what kind of asset you are talking about and where you are located.
Can you lose your house if you file for a chapter 7?
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.
Can you keep your house after a bankruptcy?
Not unless your bankruptcy did the right things to allow you to keep it. If you are not in arrears in your mortgage payments before filing, you have to continue making the payments - preferably before the due date. If you are in arrears, you must file a chapter 13, with a plan to pay the arrears and whatever part of the unsecured debt you have to pay. Once the plan is completed, you can keep your house. If you get behind in your post-petition payments due, the bank will apply for relief from the automatic stay and you will lose your house.
