Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California
My husband and I lost our home and an investment property about a year and a half ago both had 2 mortgages and now they are trying to collect on the 2nd mortgage of the home. We just recently bought a home with a $50,000 mortgage and also purchased an investment property (mobile Home) appr. value $15,000. My question is if file bankruptcy can they take the home or investment property?(previous loans under husbands name only & new home(Husband not on loan) & inv. prop (joint)
