I agree with Brett, Paul and Alan in that the house would not be lost due to the negative equity position.
All the best

Would also agree that if he house is in negative equity it would be safe and not lost in Br.

AS Brett mentioned with a negative equity your home should not be at risk and there is a process that will enable you to buyback the Beneficial interest ( equity)
Bankruptcy sounds like the best option and i suggest you talk with an expert like Brett to ensure all other areas are covered
All the best Alan

Posted - 20 March 2008 : 19:34:18 Hi Leanne,
Welcome to the Forum,
When was the property last valued? were did the £145,000 valuation originate from?
From the sounds of it you are £15,000 in negative equity with a mortgage of £130k and secured loans of £30k, on this basis you would not lose your home in Bankruptcy.
A property in negative equity would command you and your husband purchasing back the beneficial interest from the OR for £1 plus legal fees of aroun £210, therefore excluding your property from being lost to you.
You would then write off £50,000 of unsecured debt via bankruptcy, and as you say be able to survive without this debt.
I hope this sets your mind at ease a little.
Kind Regards,
Brett England
