I was declared bankrupt in March 2011 and discharged Jan 2012. However before I was able to complete my bankruptcy, Creation Finance secured my car loan against my house (£15K). I am a joint homeowner with a joint mortgage of £120k with my wife, CO is £15k and my house worth about £150k.
In short, life is starting to return to normal. We kept our house as part of the bankruptcy and I had a good income both prior to and post bankruptcy. I was self employed and owed a lot of money from someone else, which drove the bankruptcy. I am trying to 'clean everything up with a view to perhaps moving in a few years time. Only now am I starting to understand the impact of the charging order and what problems it may create in time.
My questions:
I've seen forum postings that say a CO is not valid because we are joint owners of the property, is this the case?
Given that everything else was cleared under bankruptcy, is there any way to get rid of the CO retrospectively?
When I come to sell, is it likely to be an issue on getting a mortgate, given all this will have happened 10 years ago - i.e. will it always show on my credit file? Or will I just be able to clear it as part of proceedings?
Can I chip away at the debt or does it have to all be settled at once?
How do I find if it's even registered?
Lots of questions I know, feeling a bit confused as I can't find the CO in my credit file, or the CCJ, only the Default. But i definitely got CCJ papers and it was ruled I should pay the debt in full I think. Again, how can I check.
Thanks,

Ok, so they secured it before your bankruptcy, that means it can't be written off in the bankruptcy and you still owe the money.
Check the land registry for the entry.
Your wife should have been also notified of the charging order. a creditor can go ahead even if the property is in joint names.
Once you sell the property, the mortgage and charging order will be settled from the funds.

Did you pay off the finance in full before the BR?

The loan for the car was unsecured, and not linked to the car. I sold the car a few months before and bought a runaround, so I didn't have the car at time of BR.
The CO was granted a couple of months before my BR.

Hi and welcome to the forum.
What kind of loan was it, what happened to your car when you went bankrupt and when did they put a charging order on your home.
