What else can I help you with?
Can you file bankruptcy on your house after chapter 7 discharge?
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.
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.
When you file chapter 13 does the interest get lowered on your mortgage?
No.
Should you file in front of or behind a file tab?
You should always file behind the tab.
Can you get automatic stay back after the mortgage company file for motion relief?

When do you file bankruptcy letter of intent?
You should file a bankruptcy letter of intent as soon as possible so that your creditors will be on notice. This will stop the harassing calls and foreclosure proceedings if you are behind in your mortgage payments.
Can you keep your home if you file chapter 7 bankruptcy and owe more on your second mortgage than the first?
yes
Can you file chapter 7 in Florida and re affirm your mortgage?
Yes, but its never wise to reaffirm a mortgage. Even if you dont reaffirm, as long as you keep making the mortgage payments, the bank wont foreclose.
What if your daughter bought a home with her grandmother as a co-signer she now faces foreclosure should she file chapter 13 bankruptcy how does all this effect her grandmother?
If the house is headed for foreclosure, anyone on the title and the mortgage is facing foreclosure, not just one of the owners. If the daughter was responsible for the mortgage payments by agreement with her grandmother, and got behind in payments, she may be able to pull the mortgage out of foreclosure by a Chapter 13, if she can afford the plan payments and the current mortgage payments. If the Chapter 13 cannot succeed without financial input from the grandmother, it will be up to her to let it go forward and lose the house. Either way, the fact that the house is in foreclosure will affect her credit score.
You sold your house in a short sale The first mortgage was forgiven but the second was an equity line The bank said you had a mortgage dificiency Can you file bankruptcy now for the deficiency?
Yes, you can file a Chapter 7 to have the debt liquidated or a 13 to go into repayment.
You did not reafirm your mortgage after filing chapter 7 how do you keep your house?
You had to sign and file a "statement of Intention" indicating if you were surrendering the house or reaffirming the debt. If the mortgage company did not send you a reaffirmation agreement, or your lawyer did not prepare one, you should still be able to keep the house, assuming you have continued to make the mortgage payments. If you did not, and are seriously in arrears, you will have to see if a chapter 13 is possible. See a knowledgeable bankruptcy lawyer.
Can you file chapter 13 and stop the interest on your house?
No, interest will continue. A court cannot alter a mortgage on the debtor's primary residence.
