The mortgage will most likely be sold and transferred as an asset of the bankruptcy and you will have to continue paying the mortgage to the new holder.

It means a mess. I just received 2 bankruptcy notices from lenders in my clients' cases. I am trying to figure out what that means with respect to a stay of proceedings, objections to claims, and the like. If you are just making payments and have no problems with the lender, it probably means nothing. Just make a written record of payments, etc. Keep copies of everything that you send.

Your mortgage company probably filed a reorganization. Generally, your rights are unchanged. Consult with an attorney as to the specific facts of this case.

Nothing, except that you should make sure you keep very close track of every payment, when it is mailed, when the check is cashed, etc. The only bad thing is that not infrequently information is lost in the transition to a new servicing company. You may have to provide records to prove payments. Just make sure you have the records to provide.

That should not be a problem. Someone else will take over collecting your payments, possibly a bankruptcy trustee. You should receive a notice.

Nothing. You are still obligated to make your monthly payment.

Probably nothing. Another company will buy the loan.

Its not going to change your ownership of the property. The account will probably be transferred or bought by another lender.
