I bought it 5 years ago for 32,500. The mortgage is $25,500. I owe $23,050. In order to get the mortgage I had to add extra funds- so the price would be $41,500. It is insured for $55,000.

I plan a chapter 7.

The federal exemptions are better.

I have...

My husband and I are filing chapter 13 within the month and plan on surrendering our home (which we're 100K+ upside down on). We're only 1 month behind on payments on our first and 2nd loans.

My question is, should we begin looking for rentals now that our credit is still good? or wait...

I made it through my 3-year plan of my Chapter 13 - paid it off early and was discharged in Nov '10.

I'd like to know if anyone has had recent success in getting a mortgage soon after discharge...

O.K. looks like we qualify for a Chapter 7, so now the question is how long will it take the bank to take over the house?

We will be surrendering our house and we have never been late on payments. I heard it's different if you are already in foreclosure, but in our case the bank will...

I have a feeling this means I'm all done, but I'm not sure ...

Today I opened a letter stating "Discharge of Debtor" dated 10:29/08.

Does that mean I'm all done?

1. What do I do if someone is still calling me about debts (I think it's illegal &...

Summary:
1. Which box do I check on Form 6, Schedule C,
522(b)(2)
or
522(b)(3) ?

2. Am I putting the correct laws next to my entries on the forms?

I may have...
