If you reaffirmed the debt during your bankruptcy case, or if you signed new mortgage/note paperwork after your bankruptcy, then they CAN generally come after you for a deficiency balance if the home does not sell for enough to pay off the debt. If you did NOT reaffirm the debt during the bankruptcy case, or did NOT sign any new notes afterwards, then they usually can NOT come after you for any deficiency balance from a foreclosure sale afterwards.

Speak to a lawyer for specific advice. If you have any questions, please refer to a lawyer in your jurisdiction. Thanks!

If you filed a Chapter 13 in California and now live in Texas can you dismiss that case and file a Chapter 7?
No. Bankruptcy is not a state governed court. All bankruptcies are filed in Federal Courts. Once the Court has made a ruling it will stand. The judgment is valid in All 50 States. Sorry. Yes. Many states have opted out of federal bankruptcy filing, some states allow the petitioner to choose whether they want to file a state or a federal bankruptcy. The best choice obviously is the one that is most advantageous for the petitioner. A chapter 13 can be converted into a chapter 7 if the BK petitioner can show the trustee that they cannot meet the requirements for the original 13 filing, regardless if it is a state or federal filing. Because of the strict exemptions allowed in a Chapter 7, it would be prudent to seek legal counsel before taking any action.
How many points does chapter 7 bankruptcy take off your FICO score?
A LOT, but how much your score dives also depends on how high or low your scores were before you filed. Because the FICO scoring model is top-secret, there is no way to know EXACTLY how many points you will lose and because there are so many factors that determine your score.
If you are worse off in Chapter 13 than before you filed the Chapter 13 can you ask to have it dismissed?
Yes, but with new bankruptcy laws having been implemented it may prove somewhat difficult. The involved parties will need to prove to the trustee/court that they are unable to meet the obligation. More than likely the trustee will suggest the "13" be modified rather than dismissed. If the BK is dismissed the debtor loses all BK protection and creditors may pursue collection, repossession and lawsuits as the so choose.
After you have filed for bankruptcy can you change your mind and quit?
If it is done and over, the final paperwork has been signed, then you cannot back out. What is done, is done. Take this opportunity to do better with money from now on and your credit will repair after the 7 years.
