Bankruptcy

A legal process in which a judge determines that the debt of the individual is too great to pay back and completely wipes out his or her obligations for repayment (chapter 7), or where the judge will force all Lenders to negotiate a payment plan over a certain amount of time up to 5 years. (Chapter 13). It is very typical that a homeowner who files for bankruptcy chapter 7 is under the impression that he no longer owns the house. However, this is incorrect. The chapter 7 has removed the homeowner’s promissory note; the ownership over the property (the deed) and the mortgage is still in effect. In this scenario, the owner is still responsible for property taxes, water, and the maintenance of the property. Generally these are easy scenarios to deal with because the owner has already mentally abandoned this property.
