Re: after filing bankruptcy
I presume you did not and do not yet have the house under asales contract. If that is true, then the contemplated transaction should be fine. But since you have no contract, you will need the permission of the Court if you contract for sale before discharge. Easiest is to wait until you receive your discharge.
