A PC owns two pieces of real property.
The principal residence is worth about 1.5mill, with a purchase money 1st TD for 1.2 mill and a recourse 2nd (HELOC) for 500k. His rental unit is valued at 1.1 mil, with total encumbrances of 400k (700k equity). He has less tahn 25k in other total unsecured debt.
He wants to short sell the principal residence and move back into his rental unit.
Question is if he short sells the prinicipal residence for a net estimated 1.4 mill (leaving a 300k deficiency on the HELOC or a potential 300k in debt forgiveness 1099), will that deficiency need to be reported as a unsecured obligation in a future Ch13 plan. If so, would the Ch13 plan have to be at 100% due to the amount of the equity on the 2nd property?
