Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Florida
I own a second residence in Florida. I am considering personal bankruptcy. I know that my primary residence is safe. I am considering putting my daughters name on the second residence so it will not be impacted.
How long must I wait before declaring bankruptcy so the second residence will not be lost?

Generally speaking, one year, but you should consult with a bankruptcy lawyer and describe your entire situation before making any decision to transfer a major asset to a relative before filing bankruptcy.
