Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Hawaii
bankruptcy/foreclosure
Aloha. We own 2 houses; both are
rentals , but one may be foreclosed
on soon, and is in only one of our
names. The other one is in both
our names, but we are not married.
Is the second one protected by us
not being married?
Thanks.

Re: bankruptcy/foreclosure
Bank doesn't care what your marital status is; if Bank isn't getting paid the mortgage as agreed, Bank has the right to foreclose.
The same is true of the taxing authority if this is a tax foreclosure.
