Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Texas?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non-exempt assets to pay creditors and typically discharges unsecured debts in 3 to 6 months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3 to 5 year repayment plan for debts while allowing you to keep your property. Texas exemptions often make Chapter 7 a strong option for those with limited assets.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Texas?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy remains on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years from the filing date. You can begin rebuilding credit soon after your case is discharged.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in Friendswood Texas?
Yes, Texas has an unlimited homestead exemption for your primary residence, meaning you can protect your home equity up to 10 acres in a city or 100 acres in rural areas. This exemption applies to both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases. You must continue making mortgage payments to keep the property.
