Re: Bankrupt

The answer is probably yes. However, it depends on the nature of your "construction" loan. Truly speaking, you have not given me enough information about your construction loan ( is it secured or unsecured?) or about your home - do you have a mortgage? - do you have equity in your home? All these and other details must be known before I can answer your question. Please call my office at (212)740-8330 for a consultation.
