If they execute against your assets, they can move to sell your home. Declare Bankruptcy and you may be able to keep it with the help of an attorney.

They probably cannot take your house. If you had auto insurance, the company will provide you with a lawyer and will take care of the case. If no insurance, talk to a bankruptcy lawyer.

Yes, it is possible that the equity in your home could be at risk. Were you insured?

That depends on your state's homestead exemption. Good Luck.
