Hi Ellie,

If you don't want to save the property, then you can surrender the property after your bankruptcy filing gets discharged. This will help you get rid of the property.

Thanks,

Jerry

I filed bankruptcy in 2001 and reaffirmed on the house. I no longer live there and I owner financed the house and the check was returned that she had written can I still let the house go back?

Hi Paulette!

Welcome to forums!

If you let the house go back to the lender, then the lender will foreclose the property. As you had reaffirmed the mortgage, you will be liable for paying the deficient balance to the lender.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
