Was it done via a consent order signed off by a judge, how long a go did you sign it over & were you insolvent at the time? Also, did you receive money for signing it over. |

Hi, unless the property being signed over was an order of the court, a trustee could seek to get it overturned as a transaction at an undervalue, even though you were solvent at the time.

Have you got a consent order that has been stamped by the court? That will have slightly more weight as will the fact that you were solvent. A lot will depend on the amount of equity & whether it is worth the trustees worthwhile to pursue it through the court. |

Bankruptcy should be your last resort so if you can offer what money you can affordto your creditors & they accept it then fine. |
