Anyone on the forum have experience buying a home in Chapter 13?
The ex kept the house when we split 2 years ago and I've been renting ever since. The housing market in my area is tight and I've been watching prices escalate; and they're expected to keep increasing.
I only have 6 months left in my 13 and I found a house I love. I was actually pre-approved for FHA loan by several different lenders.
My lawyer has entered a motion to incur debt and asked for a shortened notice period. The sellers have countered with an agreement that is contingent on trustee approval within 21 days.
I wish I had a crystal ball...do you think he'll allow me to buy the home? Mortgage will be higher than the rent but I've offset with new (cheaper) child care couple with lower 401k contributions so my payments will stay the same.
