Hi ramona,
"can make the payments on the mortgage"
Since you have said that you can make payments I think you should pay off your debt. This will not only save your property, but will save your credit score as well.
If you file chapter 7 bankruptcy, it will hurt your credit by almost 250 points and it will show on your credit report for about 10 long years.
Thanks,
Jerry

I am not filing Chapter 7 my partner is. Both of our names are on the investment property mortgage. I wanted to refinance to remove his name from the mortgage loan.
Hi ramona,
If your partner files bankruptcy, your credit won't get affected. If you want to remove your partner from mortgage you can ask your partner to sign a quitclaim deed and then request the lender to take his name off the loan. You can also consider doing a Novation agreement.
