Question
Will my home be foreclosed if I file for bankruptcy?
I have a first and second mortgage on my home. I do not have enough equity in my home to sell it. If I do not list the first mortgage but list the second on the chapter 7 bankruptcy filing, will the bank foreclose on my home?LawQA.com Answer Library
