Can you file bankruptcy on a rent to own home?

Answered 8 years and 9 months ago by David Michael Benson (Unclaimed Profile)   |   4 Answers   |  Legal Topics: Bankruptcy
You should not do anything while entangled in a bankruptcy case without first making sure your intended actions are not covered by the automatic stay. If they are, you'll need to request that the bankruptcy court lift the stay as to your matter.
