depends on the lender, the perceived value of the property and suspected equity
one of my properties went after 4 months (High value area with a little bit of equity)
another was about 8 months of non payment
with large complex issues like properties you may find it easier giving one of the experts a call or email.
I used paul and his team at Reviva, they helped handle all of my properties.

Posted - 07 April 2010 : 10:06:31 Thank you for your replies. We want the house to go ASAP - what should we do? how long will it take them to repossess it by just not paying? we haven't paid for two months - what is the point when they start to threaten us with repossession?

Posted - 06 April 2010 : 18:36:03 It is fine to sign a voluntary repossession form before the bankruptcy order as they cannot make you pay after the bankruptcy order regardless of what it says, it would never sign stand up in court. The thing you must not do is sign after the bankruptcy order as this creates a new liabilty which would not be covered by the bankruptcy order as it started after.
If you want to be on the ultra safe side then dont sign anything

Posted - 06 April 2010 : 14:26:31 Hi Fred
dont sign it as on some of these forms the small print says they can still chase you for the arrears even if you go BR
when you are ready and have cleared all of your belongings send the keys back to them recorded delivery with a letter or alternatly stay put until they get legal possession through the courts, thwen turn up at court and give them the keys
make certain you keep a record of what you do or they will chase you forever and claim they have not received anything.
