Can my mortgage company sell my mortgage to another mortgage company after I discharged the debt in bankruptcy?

Yes, they can. The mortgage company can sell the mortgage, just as they can sell other assets.

Your discharge and ownership of the Note and Deed of Trust for your home have no relationship with each other. The Note and Deed of Trust contain the right for the lender to sell/assign the Note and Deed of Trust. When you received your discharge, it removed your personal liability for the Note. However, the holder of the Note and Deed of Trust still has its rights against the real property. As long as you remain current on the Note, you should have nothing to worry about; just make sure that you send your payment to the correct place (the Note and Deed of Trust may be sold, but they could maintain the same loan servicer or they could change servicers - make sure that you open all mail). This answer was provided as a public service to a question posed on the Law Q & A website. The answer is based on the information provided and is limited to those facts. Furthermore, the answer is based on California law and their application to bankruptcy law in California. Additional information could change the context of the question and materially change the answer.

It is not at all strange - in fact it is very common and it is entirely legal. The mortgage is a lien on your property which remains a valuable asset even after a bankruptcy filing. Different mortgage companies each have their own business model and many lenders will gladly snap up a mortgage at a discount on the gamble that you will pay & they will make money.

It may be that even if the note was discharged the lien remains in effect.

They can do it. The note itself has been discharged but the lien has not been.

Yes they can legally sell the mortgage. The mortgage is the lien on the real estate. Your chapter 7 discharged your personal obligation on the Note, but did not release the mortgage lien on the property. If you ever want free and clear title, you will need to address the issue. Also, the mortgage lender has the right to foreclose if you are in arrearage. The foreclosure would be to obtain title to the real property.

Yes. Mortgage loans are sold and transferred all the time.
