You will have to ask the court to sell the house if it is in your plan. However, if you excluded the house from your plan and are paying them directly the court may not exercise jurisdiction over a sale. Did you have an attorney? That would be the easiest answer. If not you should seek assistance, especially if the house payments are in your plan, or you had an arrearage in the plan.
