Atlanta, GA Viewed 55 times. Posted 8 months ago in Bankruptcy / Debt

currently in a chap 13 to save my home but now the value in my home had dropped by 49% and I dont think the debt is valuable to continue to service. I cant get any modifications because Im in Chap 13. I also would like to move to another community to lease and maybe rent my home out. I would convert and include the house if i had to at this point. Do I have any options?

You do have several options for converting or possibly keeping the home under the existing Chapter 13 but your first need to see an attorney so they could get the full scope of your financial picture at this time. That way they can thoroughly explain all of your options to you based on the total picture.
