My husband and I just returned from Ohio where we attended my grandmothers funeral.  I was rather surprised to find out that she had left me her home in her will.  I was the only grandchild and I spent many summers at her home so I shouldn’t have been so surprised.  I was pleased to find out about this but am rather distraught about the delinquent property tax that is due.  I don’t want to lose the house so I will need to figure out a way to come up with the money.  She had neglected to pay the property taxes for the last four years so the amount owed is significant.

Before you tackle an issue as serious as declaring bankruptcy, you definitely need to learn all that you can. For instance, for those that live in some states, it is important to know certain differences in the laws there. Missouri chapter 7 bankruptcy laws have differences from some states in that you can file in six years, which is less than in some areas, and you have no minimum amount of debt to qualify. Before you file for chapter 7 bankruptcy, be sure that any assets that you want to keep in your possession are exempt, or you will risk losing them.
