Hello,
Let me say I wish I had found this forum prior to applying for chapter 7 in 7/16. I did receive a discharge 10/17, woohoo! Currently I have two vehicles financed through my local credit union, with whom I also had a small $2000 personal loan. The personal loan got discharged in the bk, and the judge did not allow us to reaffirm the autos.
Following my lawyers advice I am currently still paying on all three loans so I can retain my vehicles till I can get something else. My question is will the credit union give up the title to a vehicle if I sell it and pay it off or will they hold it until all loans are payed off? The reason I ask is because 1 vehicle I'm in the black on and the other about $4000 in the red.
Best case scenario I could sell the one vehicle pay it off and give title to new owner and then just surrender the other vehicle and stop paying on the small loan. Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.
