I filed chapter 7 bankruptcy; it was discharged in Dec, 02. I am now behind 12 months on my mortgage payments. TD Bank says it can't modify the loan because it wasn't reaffirmed..I've paid them for 7 years...What are my options now and can they repossess my home?

Hi camillali,

As the mortgage debt was discharged in chapter 7 bankruptcy, you are personally not liable for it. However, you must make payments towards it in case you want to keep the house. Since you are 12 months behind on your mortgage payment, there is a high chance that the lender will repossess your property. You do not have too many options to save the house. The only way to protect your house from repossession is to pay off the outstanding mortgage payments and get current on the loan.

you discuss about your interest in house with bank. why have you stopped paying?

ensure to get it reafiirmed from bank as well. after that you can go for loan modification

I think you have to talk to lender and clear the payment that you missed.
Discuss it with lender and take decesions on it.

Best luck

As steavecomish is saying the stoping of paying was the major problem in this case. I think you should not have to stop the paying.

Before stopping the paying you should have talk with lender that might help you that time.
