If you file for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, your secured debt may be discharged, but the lender is also able to repossess the property that secured the debt. In other words, if you have a mortgage on your home and file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the mortgage debt may be discharged but the lender can take back your home.
Filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy eliminates credit card debt, medical bills and unsecured loans; however, there are some debts that cannot be discharged. Those debts include child support, spousal support obligations, student loans, judgments for damages resulting from drunk driving accidents, and most unpaid taxes.
Credit card debt is by far the most common type of unsecured debt. If you fail to make credit card payments, the card issuer cannot repossess the items you purchased.
Secured debt is backed by collateral, whereas unsecured debt doesn't require you to put any assets on the line to get approved. Because lenders take on more risk, unsecured debts tend to have higher interest rates and stricter eligibility requirements than secured debt.
Examples of unsecured debt include credit cards, medical bills, utility bills, and other instances in which credit was given without any collateral requirement.
Secured debt is backed by collateral, such as a house in the case of a mortgage, reducing the lender's risk. Unsecured debt, like most credit card debt, does not have collateral and often carries higher interest rates.
