I was in a trust deed which has now failed. I have now been declared bankrupt. In the process of the trust deed a third paid £500 for the trustee to discharge their interest in our property. This is the same trustee now involved in my bankrupcy. What is the situation with their interes in the property now.
Thanks
Hi
No there has been very little change since the trust deed started and there is little or no equity.
Thanks
Hi MrsWiggy.
I'm not sure precisely how this will work. Mark, Kevin or Shona may be able to confirm the position when they next visit the forum.
If there is no equity then I don't think that there should be anything for you to worry about in this respect though.
Thank you would be grateful for any other clarification.
One other thing I am a houswife with no income. How will this work?
Previously my husband agree to make contributions for me. he is also bankrupt now and might be best not to now as I undertand i will be discharged quicker. Is it true that my child benefit can not be included in any income expenditure calculation.
Thanks
Hi again.
If you have no earned income it's very hard to imagine that you'll be requested to make a contribution in bankruptcy. All sources of household income would normally be looked at though.
Discharge should happen after a year whether or not you have to pay towards the debts.
However, if it's determined that a payment is affordable that would continue for three years.
Hi mrswiggy
Just to be clear, did you nominate the Trustee on your bankruptcy petition or is the current Trustee acting as Agent to the Accountant in Bankruptcy.

Mark is not posting regularly in the Trust-deed.co.uk forum.
The trustee petitioned for Bankrupcy as the trust deed failed,
This is so helpul. We were only declared yesterdsy what should happen next?
I think you'll need to wait to hear MrsWiggy. Presumably they have a good understanding of your circumstances already so things shouldn't take too long before you know what (if anything) is expected of you now.
