Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also known as “liquidation,” involves the sale of a debtor’s non-exempt assets by a trustee, and the proceeds go to creditors. It’s often used by people who have little or no disposable income. Chapter 13 bankruptcy, on the other hand, allows debtors with regular income to create a plan to repay all or part of their debts over three to five years. It can be a good choice for people who want to keep their homes or other secured assets.
How long will a bankruptcy stay on my credit report, and how does it impact my credit score?
What are my rights as a homeowner facing foreclosure and what are the steps involved in the foreclosure process?
As a homeowner facing foreclosure, you have the right to be informed about all proceedings and to get a notice before your property is sold. You can also challenge the foreclosure if you believe it’s unlawful or if the lender made a mistake. The exact steps of the foreclosure process can vary by state, but it usually begins with missed mortgage payments, followed by a notice of default and then a notice of sale.
