Due to COVID-19, new laws have been enacted to ensure that people who haven’t paid their mortgage in the last 18 months will not lose their homes. These laws enable mortgage lenders to reduce payments by 20-25% AND pay the 18 months of mortgage owed at the end of the loan period.

Chapter 13: May Reorganize Debts
Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows for individuals with regular income to repay all or part of their debt over a 3-to-5-year period through monthly payments to a Chapter 13 Trustee. This option can stop foreclosures, repossessions, and garnishments and let you to keep your home and car, even if the foreclosure or repossession process already started. Call David to find out if you are eligible for a Chapter 13 repayment plan and what your bankruptcy payment may be!
Chapter 7: May Cancel Some Debt
Rather than set up a payment plan to slowly repay debts, Chapter 7 bankruptcy cancels qualifying debts like credit cards, medical bills, older income taxes and personal loans within a few months. Not all debts are eligible to be cancelled like recent income taxes, child support and student loans. Chapter 7 may force the sale of certain property or assets depending on what they are worth. You don’t automatically lose everything. If you have lived in South Carolina for the last two and a half years you get to keep specified property.

Mortgage Modifications
