Chapter 13: Are You Sure You Want a Repayment Plan Option?
In a Chapter 13 repayment plan option, often individuals come to the bankruptcy multiple payments behind in their mortgage. For example, Blake and Crystal* were five payments behind in their mortgage. A Chapter 13 repayment plan divides arrears by 60 (which represents the number of months in five years) and adds that amount to the mortgage payment.
As a law firm, we generally steer our clients away from this type of repayment plan. Why? We find that they fail more often than not. After all, if you could not afford your payments prior to the plan, why will you be able to afford them after more has been added? Do you really want to remain in negative equity for five years?
As your attorney, we will help you to analyze these situations and find the best solution to your debt. We will not shield you from the truth. We will show you each strategy and help you find one that will get you back on your feet. Put our experience to work for you.
We want to emphasize that this type of bankruptcy is really for individuals who believe that their financial circumstances will improve. It is for people who have short-term problems who can recover from their financial circumstances.
