Iowa law states that my house is exempt as long as it's on a lot that's less that 1/2 acre in town. However, my lot is almost an acre and we are in town. We owe about $175,000 against our house and our house is probably not worth more then $180,000 at this time.
IN addition to this, I do daycare in my home. My entire basement is set up to do daycare in it. So, do I need to worry about having it taken away from me in a bankruptcy? Because not only is this my house, but it is also my income?
I'm still trying to get our paperwork together to get an appointment with an attorney. Since I'm self employed, I have months of paperwork to document for taxes anyway. I just wish they would answer my question so I would know if I have to figure something else out.
