“Lien stripping is only available in Chapter 13 bankruptcy and is only possible if the value of your home is less than the amount you owe on your first mortgage. In other words, if your home is worth less than what you owe on your primary mortgage, then the second mortgage or home equity loan may be considered unsecured debt, which can be treated similarly to credit card or medical debts.”
