How is that going to stop foreclosure? BK is a way to clear debt, but you have to pay as much as possible and the lender already has first option on the property, so he will get paid. In fact, if you file BK, the lender may actually get the property faster since they don’t have to go through all the crap related to a foreclosure. The judge can just order the sale of the property and excess proceeds would go to your other creditors.

You could deed to anybody you want, including the Flintstones or Osodden Bin Laden, but it wouldn’t stop or hinder the foreclosure at all…so why would you bother?
