What do I do now if I filed bankruptcy 3 years ago and thought my mortgage had been reaffirmed but have recently found out it was not?
Question Details:
I have continued to make my payments but credit report shows mortgage was discharged in bankruptcy. What are my options?
What options did you want? You have the best of both worlds right now. You get to keep your home if you maintain the payments, and have no further obligation in the future should you default on the payments and the property is sold for a loss.
There's no way to do a reaffirmation agreement now, but if you want to be obligated on the loan and have it reported on your credit report, you can refinance the loan which would be a new contract.
