We've closed on properties in active bankruptcy with court approval.

Means test calculations in Florida Chapter 7 use Miami-Dade County median income. Miami debtors above the median must pass detailed expense analysis to qualify.

If your Miami home has equity above the Florida homestead exemption, the trustee may sell to liquidate for creditors. BuyHousesInCash buys from trustees regularly.

Chapter 13 reorganization plans in Florida sometimes require court approval to sell real estate. The proceeds typically apply to your repayment plan.

Your bankruptcy attorney files the motion; we provide proof of funds and offer terms.
Florida bankruptcy court approval for a real estate sale typically takes 21-45 days from motion filing — the Florida judicial calendar plus required notice to creditors. BuyHousesInCash holds offers open during the approval period. Once approved, we close within 7-10 days. Total Miami bankruptcy sale timeline is usually 30-60 days.
The automatic stay in bankruptcy stops most actions against your property. To sell, your attorney files a Motion for Authorization to Sell — the court lifts the stay for the specific transaction. BuyHousesInCash' offer becomes part of that motion. The stay protection continues for everything else; only the approved sale is permitted.
Florida's homestead exemption protects a portion of your primary residence equity from creditors in bankruptcy. The exemption amount varies by state. If your Miami home equity falls within the exemption, you may sell and keep proceeds. If equity exceeds the exemption, the difference goes to the bankruptcy estate. Your Florida attorney calculates the impact.
Step 1: consult Miami-Dade County bankruptcy attorney about authorization. Step 2: get cash offer. Step 3: file motion for court approval if required. Step 4: sign purchase agreement subject to court order. Step 5: close after authorization with proceeds distributed per the bankruptcy plan.
