Saving a timeshare?

[Ifonly]

We're in NE PA which is considered a suburb of NJ for bk exemption purposes as per my lawyer.

We're surrendering the house and one car (too much value). That only leaves one car with a value of $8,000 to save.

Since the lawyer said we could save $20K of assets each can I ask him to save my Disney time share?

I don't have anything else to save and it seems like I'd be wasting my exemption otherwise.

Does anyone have any experience with timeshares and their treatment in bk?

You can try. But the problem isn't the timeshare itself, but the monthly dues/maintenance fee on the timeshare that the trustee objects with. Another poster had this same situation and he couldn't keep his.

I wish you the best in trying to keep it. Just remember after everything is all settled...you can get another one.

Good luck.
