Hi
My wife and I are going through the process of setting up an IVA. Talking last night has brought up a question.
If everything goes really wrong and Bankruptcy is the only option (not that we think it will get to that) what is our position on a secured loan we have against our house?
Basically when we had the house re-valued the equity on the house covers the loan plus about 2K. If we had to declare BR would the house have to be sold to cover the secured loan or would we be allowed to keep the house?
As a foot note very glad I found this forum before we started the process (makes me shudder thinking about starting an IVA without reading this site first!)
We decided to go with JonesGiles and feel confident in there dealings with us so far.
Thanks
Gary

Provided you continue to pay the secured loan there is nothing to be worried about. In bankruptcy there is nothing for the OR to pursue so the property could be dealt with cheaply and easily.

Should not come to that anyway as I am sure your IVA will be approved.

Thanks for the fast reply [:)]
We are feeling OK with the application at the moment just trying to cover all the bases [:)]
Thanks again
Gary
