My father has terminal cancer and has deeded his home to me and my husband since I had to quit work to care for him, My husband and I have about 30k in unsecured debt and am thinking of filing for chapter 7 in Va. can they make me sell the home? and do I need to file before my father passes away. Your help is greatly appreciated I'm so stressed right now I can't even think straight.
Hi Ronda,
If you and your husband file bankruptcy jointly and if the property is in your name, then you will have to include the home in your bankruptcy filing. The trustee may sell off the property in order to pay off your creditors.
Thanks
