Find the best financial services for you at: SMARTFINANCESOLUTIONS.NET - Taxes bankruptcy / reaffirm? - I recently filed bankruptcy chapter 7, my sister and her family resides in the house I soley own in gEORGIA which was included in the bankruptcy and I live in N.Y. I was wondering if I don't reaffirm with the first and second mortgage companies and my sister continues to stay current with both mortagages would the mortgage company continue to pay the property taxes as they have done in the past. Also would I still be able to claim the house on my taxes like I have done in the past as a rental property claiming the repairs and taxes since its listed on my bankruptcy. These are my concerns, the reason I chose not to reaffirm is because in case she stop paying a year or 3 years from now, I wouldn't be able to file for bankruptcy for another 10 years. I am trying to improve my credit since filing for bankruptcy. One day I'll like to own and live in my own home or condo, which would take years due to my bankruptcy. Could any one answer these questions. Thank you -
