Question:



Ex husband is declaring himself bankrupt, he has no beneficial interest in my property as i bought him out when we divorced, he is currently living with his parents. We have no joint debts.

Will his bankruptcy affect me and my property and will it affect his mother whom he currently lives with?

Answer:



Depending on the time that has passed in when you bought him out, the Official Receiver in his bankruptcy will question and may request documentation on the sale.

This should not affect you unless his portion was sold at an amount under what the value of his portion of the property was at that time.

If it was sold undervalue then the OR may look closer at the transaction.

Thank you for letting me help you.

Our Services

If you have a serious debt problem, bankruptcy can free you from your debts within 12 months. As a solution for dealing with serious debt, bankruptcy is a last resort. Other debt solutions need to be explored first, to help determine if bankruptcy is the right debt solution for you.

 

Your financial affairs are put into the hands of an Official Receiver or Trustee, who will control all your assets - and if you own a property, this will also be included. These will be sold and the money used to pay as much as possible to your creditors.

 

There are consequences to bankruptcy which will affect your finances and work life. You may struggle to borrow money, for example, and will not be able to apply for certain jobs.

 

For some, bankruptcy is the right option and will put an end to pressure from creditors. Our team of experts are on hand to advise on the best solution to your debt problems - call now on 0800 002 9951.
