The bankruptcy could serve to discharge the mortgagor’s personal responsibility to repay the loan, but a mortgagee approved, preforeclosure shortsale isn’t possible unless/until the Trustee formally abandons its interest in the property.
We are trying to do a SS in North Carolina. House has no equity, we just found out that the owner is going to file for bankruptcy next week. Should we drop it, or is ther still a chance of making it work.
