When filing for bankruptcy many debtors have debt associated with upgrades to their home such as a water heater or in ground swimming pool. Just like all other debts, these debts must be included in the bankruptcy filing. But that doesn’t mean that handling of the debt on these housing fixtures will be simple as other secured items such as a vehicle.Usually what happens is that the lender has a security interest in the fixture that has been attached to the house. What that means is that the lender will continue to own the fixture until the loan has been paid.
