A general rule of thumb prior to filing bankruptcy is try not to sell, transfer, or get rid of your property unless you have discussed it with your bankruptcy attorney first. The reason is, transfers, sales and even trade-ins prior to filing are heavily scrutinized by the case Trustee. 

No matter how much you love your home, when you file bankruptcy a question that likely will pop into the back of your mind is, if I file will I ever be able to sell my home? The short answer is yes. Although you have filed a bankruptcy, you are still able to sell your home down the road and keep all of the exempt net proceeds from the sale.
