Bankruptcy Attorney informs trustee we are moving

Wednesday, March 18th, 2009

Not much going on. We did have our bankruptcy lawyer let the bankruptcy trustee that we will be mving the end of March. If the bankruptcy estate is not sold, or the sale gets moved to April the buyers will need to pick up out of Florida, or she will need to arrange storage until the sale.

I found out the buyers only have 48 hours to pick up the purchased items from the bankruptcy sale after the purchase. So if it gets sold on the 23rd, it will be out of my hands by the 25th.

We are relocating it’s time for a fresh start

Monday, March 9th, 2009

It looks like after 17 years we will be moving out of Florida, back to the midwest. My wife got a job offer, and it looks like it’s time to move on. It looks like a small apartment is the way we are going… not that we have a choice. Most of our personal property is going to the bankruptcy estate sale, and the few items I got to keep from my exemptions we will try to sell to get money to move. Plus we won’t have room for it in a small apartment.

Scheduled sale of bankruptcy estate items

Friday, March 6th, 2009

Today we got a notification the trustee has scheduled the sale of our items surrendered in our bankruptcy. It is tentatively scheduled for March 23, but she may put it off until april 6 for some reason. I’ll be curious to see what happens. One thing I did find out is that it is a all or nothing sale. In otherwords different people won’t bid per item, one person has to buy everything.

The cars we surrendered will be sold individually and seperate from everything else.

Last day for claims against the chapter 7 bankruptcy estate

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Yesterday was the last day for anyone to file a claim against the bankruptcy estate. I did see several of my creditors waited until the very last day. Not exactly why they would wait, as we were already discharged the end of January. One more thing out of the way.

Surrendered cars today as part of chapter 7 bankruptcy

Monday, March 2nd, 2009

Today was the day we had to turn in our cars. Kinda sucked… as one was paid for, and the other only owed $300 on. But as you have read from our earlier posts the Trustee stated they were worth way more than they actually were. So instead of paying for an appraisal to fight it, and since the cars were starting to have mechanical problems we let them go.
