Hi Keith,

If you have no equity in your home or the property is in negative equity the official receiver or trustee in Bankruptcy will offer to sell your beneficial interest to a third party (normally your spouse or a family member) for the nominal sum of £1 plus the legal costs. If this is the case your home will be safe, may I suggest you get an up to date valuation and mortgage redemption figures to give to the OR when you declare Bankruptcy.

With little or no equity with you property and with no other assets then I think Bankruptcy may well be a sensible move and give you a fresh start.

I hope this helps,


Kind Regards,
