Voluntary Reposession

A question about : Voluntary Reposession

Following my posts in IVA board, my friend has now decided to go thr bankruptcy route having checked with HR it won't affect his job.

He wants to hand his house to the mortgage company (Kensington) and add the negative shortfall to the BR which will be about 20-25k.

The plan is then to move into rented accommodation. He has no other large assetts. His car is worth about 1500 but needs it for work and hosp appts. Will this be a good reason to be allowed to hang on to it?

Nearly at the end

A question about : Nearly at the end

Hi all, looking for a bit of advice.

I was declared bankrupt some time ago and I'm nearly at the end of the bankruptcy.

My husband had a car on HP and he sold it to my mum, as we couldn't afford it anymore, we have proof that she paid and bought the car). I have always been the registered keeper for this car although it was in my husbands name. At the moment I am still the registered keeper of the car (only because my mum has just had a double hip replacement and can't drive it for some time)
