Am I ready for Bankruptcy
Firstly, since you are earning sufficient to take home at least
Firstly, since you are earning sufficient to take home at least $1300 a month, I don't think that you can qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
Secondly, it is very rare that a creditor will foreclose your property to recover credit card debts. In fact there are certain state like Texas, which prohibits creditors from seizing primary residences.
Thirdly, if you file bankruptcy under Chapter 13, your can keep back your house, because you are required to pay off the entire outstanding debt within a 3 to 5 year period. Moreover, if you are regular with your mortgage payments, your house will not be foreclosed.
You can always consult w/ an attorney to find out if you qualify
You can always consult w/ an attorney to find out if you qualify --- I bring home 2212/mo (41,000/yr) and live in VA and qualify for a chapter 7... in CA it is
California $49,182 (1 earner) $65,097 (2 people) $70,684 (3 people) $79,971 (4 people). (http://www.justice.gov/ust/eo/bapcpa/20090315/bci_data/median_income_table.htm)
I believe even in a 7 you can keep your home if you reaffirm the morgage... I would talk w/ an attorney to see what options you have.
