But, please could you tell me, if being passed the debt of your property's mortgage (& secured loan on it),(it will be repossesed with absolutely no equity), which WILL force you into bankrupcy.Does it look BETTER (to the OR) if you declare your OWN bankruptcy FIRST (before the repossession), or AFTER - i.e. they 'sue' (force) you for/into bankruptcy?? - We want to avoid any heavy penalties/restrictions placed because we did things in the wrong order?! Thankyou so much!

Hi Suzannebellingham,

I always advocate getting the house reposessed prior to going BR. As you'll need to get a rental, you will struggle to pass letting agents' credit checks if you do it post-BR. Once reposession has occured and you're in the new rental, then declare yourself BR.

Thats so helpful, THANKS!
But, can i ask, if you do not need to rent for a long time (living with relatives), therefore you dont suffer from this problem, does it still 'look ok' (i.e reasonable behaviour) to the OR, to bankrupt AFTER your repossession? Thanks!..
