I have answered your other post, however as far as the three year rule is concerned, it is a use it or loose it rule for the Trustee in Bankruptcy. Historically Trustees would sit on property for considerable time to allow equity to build, however under the enterprise act the three year rule was put into effect to stop this happening.
If a property has had a fixed charge entered by the Trustee or if the Trustee has taken possession then they have acted under the rule.
If within the three years the Trustee has done nothing then the title will be passes back to the Bankrupt.
If the Trustee has possession and the property does not sell on the open market then it will likely go to auction.
