How Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Can Stop Foreclosure Proceedings and Save Your Home
First things first: it’s important to know what’s involved in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy to best understand how filing for this type of bankruptcy protection may be able to help you stay in your home. Simply put, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is also known as “reorganization bankruptcy.” Unlike Chapter 7 bankruptcy, where you will likely be forced to give up many of your assets, including your real estate, in exchange for the debt being wiped out, Chapter 13 is a restructuring plan. In other words, our legal team will assist you in creating a repayment plan so you can pay back your debt to creditors over a longer period of time. It usually takes between three and five years to complete this plan and get back fully on your feet financially.
Here’s how Chapter 13 bankruptcy can save your home:
- Payments of your mortgage arrears will be spread out over the repayment period.
- If you keep up with your mortgage payments during the repayment time, you will be able to remain in your home and stave off any foreclosure proceedings.
- It’s important to note, however, that in addition to repaying the arrears, you will also have to stay current on mortgage payments going forward.
If you are feeling anxious about how you will possibly afford to repay all your debts, even though you’ll have several years to complete your reorganization, it’s time to contact a skilled bankruptcy lawyer at Brenner Brenner & Stiller.
We will work with you to create a repayment plan that will work for you. We’ll also explain how the Automatic Stay provision of the US Bankruptcy Code will stop any current foreclosure action and force your creditors to immediately stop hounding you for payment. Additionally, we will discuss how Chapter 13 can strip a second mortgage so you can see the light at the end of the tunnel even faster.
We have many years of experience assisting homeowners by drafting successful repayment plans. We can help your family get through this financial crisis so you can stay in your home.
