Are you struggling to make monthly payments to the bankruptcy trustee? Would you like to lower your monthly payments and have questions on how to refinance in bankruptcy? While the courts have afforded certain protections, many people are faced with a greater financial burden while in bankruptcy, than they encountered before filing a Chapter 13. Many are left speculating how they will survive.

Initial Refinance Steps:

  • Review Monthly Cash Flow
  • Review Monthly Expenses
  • Review Payment History to Trustee
  • Review Payment Schedule to Trustee
  • Review Potential Savings through Refinancing
  • Submit Proposal to Trustee

For the most part experts in the financial world constantly exclude citizens from filing bankruptcy. But there are quite a amount of the people who file bankruptcy under chapter 7 or chapter 13.  Bankruptcy can cause harm to your credit. With the bankruptcy on your credit report you would get high interest rates on any loan that you take for the next 7 to 10 years. Nevertheless if you follow some steps then you can qualify for a good interest rate. The first step towards getting a loan is that you should look for the right lender.

Your success or failure in being granted permission to refinance will in part be determined by your selection of a Lawyer. Your Lawyer will persuade the trustee that it is in the best interest of all parties to restructure the debt, and perhaps allow some debts to be completely wiped out. Finally, even if the trustee grants approval, any lender will first and foremost review your payment history for the past 12 – 24 months at a minimum. Ensure that all payments made to the trustee are on time and properly posted to the correct accounts.

You may be eligible to consolidate your expenses and refinance in bankruptcy to lower your monthly payments.
