Your Home in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Chapter 13 bankruptcy has some advantages over Chapter 7 bankruptcy if you want to keep your home.

  • If you have significant equity in your home and want to keep it, Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be your best option.  
  • If you are behind in your mortgage, Chapter 13 allows you to catch up through your repayment plan.
  • You may be able to get rid of (strip off) second mortgages, home equity lines of credit, or home equity loans in Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
