Secured LIne of credit

What happens to my home if I declare Bankruptcy in Ontario if I have a secured line of credit, no mortgage, on the property?

Your home is only at risk if you have accumulated equity in the property and you can’t afford to pay your trustee that equity. Whether you have a mortgage or a secured line of credit doesn’t matter – what matters is how much money may be left for your unsecured creditors i fyour home was sold.

A word of caution – if your line of credit is for $100,000, but you’ve only used $10,000 then the trustee will use the balance you owe ($10,000) when determining whether or not you have any equity.
