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

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.
