Can a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Help?
Even if you have made several late payments on your home mortgage, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy may allow you to avoid a home foreclosure. When you file for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, an automatic stay of further collection activity puts a temporary halt on further collection efforts by your home mortgage lender or mortgage servicer pending further order of the bankruptcy court.
If you file for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, your attorney can submit a three- to five-year debt repayment plan that will allow you to pay your mortgage debt arrears gradually over time. Thousands of people each year protect their home from foreclosure by filing for bankruptcy relief.
