2 people own land together that is not related. One of those individual is in Chapter 11 and is fixing to convert to Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Can the courts foreclose on the land? If we current & in good standing with the bank.
Courts don't foreclose on homes. However, if there is sufficient equity in the home,. a bankruptcy trustee will force a sale of the home. If there is a small amount of equity, the house may be safe, but the answer there depends on facts we do not have.
More facts are needed as to how much equity is in the property before this question can be answered with certainty.
