    Depending on the amount of the debt, they can seek action to force you to sell your home so that your equity can be used to satisfy your debts. Just exempt out your house and equity and move forward with the CHP 7. It's be easier to re-establish credit while owning a home.

    People typically lose thier homes under BK because they waited until the last minute and were defaulting on thier mortgage payments. Foreclosures aren't cost-effective to lenders. So if your current on your house, don't worry about it you'll be fine! BK's are intented to strip you of all your assets.

    Good Luck!
