- The possibility of refinancing or modifying your loan
How Will Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Affect Your Foreclosure?
In some instances it may be in your best interest to leave your home. You can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection to eliminate the balance you owe to the mortgage company. You will not be able to keep your home, but you can slow down the foreclosure process and find some debt relief.
How Will Chapter 13 Affect Your Foreclosure?
If you want to keep your home, you may choose to file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy protection. When you file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you reinstate the mortgage and continue to make payments. You will be able to remain living in your home. In New Jersey, you must file your Chapter 13 bankruptcy action prior to the sheriff's sale.
