I was made bankrupt by a creditor at the end of 2009 and AD was given in 2010. At the time the BO was made, I was told that as I owned property jointly with my husband (who was not bankrupted), I had 12 months in which to sell it. The BR was passed onto a Trustee who, although did not enforce this during the term of the BR, requested that the property be placed on the market some three months after AD (Trustee’s anniversary), which I reluctantly did. However, due to economic climate, property has not sold during this 12-month period and, as stated above, husband is not BR.

My understanding of the situation is that having supplied all details of creditors, etc. to OR/Trustee, the debts have subsequently been written off and I am in the throes of establishing this fact via Experian (I subscribe to them for my credit report). Due to technical problems, I was unable to print off the Certificate and now, of course, it has long since “dropped” off the system!

My question, therefore, is this : if all debts HAVE been written off, can Trustee still insist on sale of property as, the only “debt” here, so far as I can see, is the OR/Trustee fees or can they re-bankrupt me for these?

Of course, I am probably clutching at the proverbial “straw”, but I would welcome anyone’s thoughts.

I would add that over the last couple of years, I’ve read lots of Q's and A’s on here which I have found very helpful.

I'm not sure that's right Krissi - has the price been lowered if it's not selling? Could your husband pay your part of the equity? How much equity are we talking about?

BTW - your creditors will get their share of the equity, they've only been written off as regards you owing them money any more.

Yes, I live in England. Without wishing to sound stupid, do I take it then that if house hasn't been sold by the end of the 3-year period, that's the end of it all? Other than trying to sort out credit report.

(presuming you are in england or wales)

The family home stays part of the bankruptcy for 3 years and that is how long the trustee has to deal with it

Does anyone have an answer please?
