Good morning,
Almost two years ago we filed a 13 to save our home and the arrears (currently around 9k) are being paid back in the plan. Our 2nd with Real Time Resolutions will be wiped away upon completion of the plan. Since filing our mortgage fell behind again because of reduced income. We recently obtained a modification and now have affordable payments and the pre and post petition arrears are now a part of the loan. My questions follow:
1. We asked the atty that since we no longer have to pay the arrears in the plan if it will reduce the payment or reduce the payback time. He said to contac the ttee that it will probably reduce the time.
2. We are considering contacting the 2nd mortgage to do a settlement then converting to a 7. Is this wise? Would we reaffirm the first now that we can afford the payments? If not, will the on time payments reflect on our credit?
3. We have a vehicle that was crammed down from approximately 27k to 13k. What will happen with that? Will we have to go back to paying on the 27k.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
