Hi, I have 2 mortgages from the same company. 2nd loan was recently charged off and i'm making payments on the first loan. I understand that you still need to pay the 2nd mortgage to clear your title or sell your house in the future i guess. Can i declare bankruptcy and avoid paying the 2nd loan charged off. Will that clear my title to be able to sell the home? I can not afford the 2nd loan as the house depreciated about 35%

Even if you declare bankruptcy you will still have the lien on your property so it won't accomplish anything with the second mortgage. You may be able to do a short sale in which the second mortgage holder will take less than what is owed. Or you may be able to talk with them about a loan modification in order to get back on track with the payments.

You can do a loan strip with ch 13 bk if the value of the property is less than the debt of the first. I'm not guaranteeing, but it IS possible to do.
