    Lookback period on non-exempt asset sales

    Hi guys, if i were to sell my motorcycle and my truck today and use that money to purchase a condo. at or below the federal exemption amount of 40,000.00 per couple, and then wait at least 6 months before i file chapter 7, is this a problem. Thanks for your help.

    Doesn't sound like a problem, as long as the assets you're selling go for market value and not at a big discount to a relative. On the assets I sold prior to filing, the trustee asked about my relationship with the people that bought them, but had no objection and didn't even ask where the money went. YMMV.

      Hi Bob, thanks for the info., trying to get a plan together, home 100K underwater here in Michigan and i'm not as attached to my house as some are (emotionally that is-financially different matter LOL.) I've been doing what i thought to be the right thing and making my payments on time, and i get rewarded with a notice of maturity of my HELOC, due in full in 1month or so or they will be happy to refinance it at 9.5% instead of just extending the current loan that is at prime plus 1/2% approx. 3 1/2% i believe. If i agreed to this my already difficult to make payment will increase 350.00 per month. God bless America! LOL.

        Our trustee didn't care what we sold or what it was sold for provided that it was an arms-length transaction.

        No family, no friends. Just what the market would bring.
