I need to declare bankruptcy, I am worried about my house, my mortgage payment is 1677, do you think that I can keep my house? We have limited income as both me any my wife are disabled.

It is not so much the payment that is important, but the amount of equity within the house. If there is less than $40,000 equity in the property and you are living within it, then you shouldn’t have any problems. However, if you have greater than the $40,000 equity mark then you can expect that a bankruptcy will have an impact on the property.
