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.
Michigan's homestead exemption protects a portion of your primary residence equity from creditors in bankruptcy. The exemption amount varies by state. If your Rochester Hills 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 Michigan attorney calculates the impact.

Rochester Hills homeowners considering bankruptcy with significant home equity should consult a Oakland County bankruptcy attorney before filing; the home's treatment varies dramatically by chapter and by Michigan's homestead exemption.
