Also known as a “reorganization” bankruptcy or a debt adjustment plan, with Chapter 13 you keep your property. Often used by individuals who have too high of an income level to qualify for Chapter 7, Chapter 13 can help people who are behind on their house or car payments. And while Chapter 13 requires a payment to a Trustee, it does not mean you must pay all of your debt back in full. To the contrary, most Chapter 13 plans only pay about ten percent (10%) of what is owed. As an example, someone who owes $50,000.00 of credit card debt may only be required to pay $5,000.00 – and will have five (5) years to do it.
With Chapter 13 you will have a monthly repayment schedule, using your income to pay off a portion of your debts over time. As pointed out above, Chapter 13 also eliminates debt because whatever you cannot afford to pay in your Chapter 13 will be wiped out once your plan completes through a discharge order.
Protect Your Home, Car and Other Assets with Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Whether you need help getting caught up on your mortgage or you want to lower your car payments, no case is too small. All of your assets are protected in a court-protected Chapter 13 repayment plan, and your payment amount is based on your non-exempt assets and your income, after allowed expenses.
Eliminate Your Mortgage and Rebuild Equity in Your Home with Chapter 13 Bankruptcy!
Many people have 2nd mortgages, and these liens prevent the future appreciation of your home to result in any equity. Once these liens are removed, you will be able to start building equity in your home again. Many clients elect to file Chapter 13 in order to take advantage of this benefit.
